Testing the BenQ Joybook S35 With The Past Wear Windows 7

Physically, the BenQ Joybook S35 is like a big version of the netbook BenQ, Joybook S101. This can be seen from the use of glossy piano blue with BenQ Joybook writing on the back. The use of such glossy material makes this notebook look modern look, though should be compensated with fingerprints easily attached to this surface.

As a notebook, physical Joybook S35 looks a little wider. Thick notebook itself ranges from 1.3 cm at the numbers (on the front side) up to 2.9 cm (on the back). So is thick, this notebook had not reached the number "sacred" 1 inch. However, calculations were honestly can not release the image as the Joybook S35 notebook thin, as he briefly looked very slim. Moreover, weighed only 1.6 kg.

BenQ S35 All facilities developed on the left and right, including the memory slot, VGA-Out, USB (3 pieces), HDMI, and eSATA. This last facility is underlined because it is not feasible in other thin notebooks. But such a thin notebook generally, there is no optical devices or PCMCIA expansion slot / Express Card. This notebook also has Bluetooth.

On the interior, BenQ does not do a lot of reforms. Keyboard keys are practically the same as BenQ notebooks in general, do not follow the style that is trendy chiclet it. But like the touchpad InfoKomputer made it so textured feel responsive.

Like other thin notebooks, notebook sailed 13.3 "using an Intel Core 2 Solo SU 3500 and the Mobile Intel GS45 chipset. Large memory capacity (4GB), but relatively small hard drive capacity (250GB) when compared to Asus and Acer. Joybook S35 test results appear to compete with Asus UX30 as the best, but it should be noted that this notebook uses Windows 7 that did not fit when compared to the apple-to-apple.
