HP ProBook 5330m (LG719EA)

Zitat: The HP ProBook 5330m would be an excellent ultraportable laptop if only it had the long battery life to go with its sturdy, attractive design and good specification. As such, it´s just a good laptop rather than a superb one. If you can live with its comparatively short battery life or just need a fast processor, it´s a good alternative to the MacBook Air. If applications performance is entirely unimportant, the considerably cheaper Sony Vaio Y series has longer battery life making it a great budget alternative.

Zitat: Pro: + Versatile matte display + Durable chassis + Robust suite of security software + Great performance Contra: - Heavy - Poor battery life - Can run warm Taken on its own, the HP ProBook 5330m seems like a reasonable laptop. Business travelers will be pleased by the sturdy construction, matte display and excellent performance At least, that is, until other mile-high executives pass by in the airport with their own choices. Suddenly the flaws in this product start to reveal themselves. The Lenovo X220 offers better battery life and a more portable size at a nearly identical price. Toshiba will sell you a Core-i5 powered Protege for just $799. Even Dell is able to undercut HP slightly with the Vostro V131. Don’t take this to mean that this laptop is not competitive, however. While slightly more expensive than some other laptops, and handicapped by poor battery life, this ProBook offers a solid combination of hardware and supports it with robust security software. Some buyers may find that the built-in security features make this laptop the best choice.

Zitat: Pro: + Sharp, vibrant TFT screen + Excellent Sandy Bridge performance + Slim and solid build + Reasonable speakers Contra: - Boxy design - No dedicated graphics - Poor battery life - Keys occasionally don´t register presses

Zitat: Positiv: + toller Bildschirm + qualitativ gute Eingabegeräte + starke Verarbeitung + schickes Design Negativ: - kein DVD-Laufwerk - kein USB 3.0 - schwacher Akku Trotz Mankos überwiegt beim HP ProBook 5330 der positive Eindruck. Das ist vor allem der brillanten Verarbeitung, dem schicken Design und dem sehr gelungenen Bildschirm geschuldet. Da HP preislich nicht aus den Vollen schöpft, ist dieses Subnotebook eine gute Alternative zu Lenovo & Co.

Zitat: The Good: + Solid build quality + Good performance / security specs for the price + Includes a 3G radio The Bad: - 4-cell battery doesn´t last long on a charge - No extended battery option - Occasionally stiff keyboard
