Product Survey: Netbooks

Glossy materials are gradually taking over everywhere on MSI's laptops and netbooks. It's a shame, as this inevitably leads to unwanted reflections as well as dust and greasy fingerprints. If you can get beyond that, the U135 looks pretty nice and is successful mix of grey and black. Still, MSI somehow managed to use glossy grey plastic in the part of the laptop where you're most likely to touch it and leave greasy marks behind: the touchpad, either side of the keyboard and the back of the screen. The whole thing is well built and seems solid. On the chicklet-style , the individual keys are small and flat (13.5 x 13 mm), but they're solid and responsive. Typing isn't too loud, although we've definitely seen netbooks with quieter keyboards. The keyboard dips slightly in the centre when you apply pressure, and we think that its fittings could have done with a little more work, especially at the top. The doesn't have multitouch, but it's big enough to be comfortable to use. It's covered with a matte finish which stops your finger from sticking as it slides over the pad. We still prefer the accuracy of some other touchpads, including Samsung's for instance. The image produced by the is acceptable, but nothing more, despite its 1.3 Megapixel resolution.

MSI Wind U135 Netbook Review

We have been fans of MSI's Wind series of netbooks. They have consistently rivaled Asus' Eee PC range and HP's Mini line, and the competition has been good for the industry. MSI's Wind line has remained relatively consistent over the years, with the design staying mostly the same, but the internals progressively getting more advanced with newer hardware platforms from Intel and fresher operating systems from Microsoft (and Linux, truth be told). The Wind U135 is the first major contender in MSI's netbook line to ship with Intel's Pine Trail platform within, which means that it finally ditches the aging Atom N270/N280 CPU in favor of the newer Atom N450. What's most interesting here is that our review should detail quite nicely what improvements are available from Intel's new platform. In most every other way, the Wind U100 that we tested early last year is exactly the same, save for the new CPU and new integrated GPU. The price has also fallen quite nicely, with the Wind U135 priced around $315. When the U100 launched, it was around $430. MSI has also made a few small improvements here in terms of usability, with a chiclet keyboard being implemented and the trackpad given a small bump in size.

MSI Wind U135

In general, MSI netbooks have been the long-distance runners of the category; the U100, the U110, and the U123 all had impressive battery life. With its newest netbook, the Wind U135 ($329), MSI is using the second-generation Atom N450 processor, which was designed to provide up to 20 percent greater power efficiency than Intel’s last chip. However, the U135 doesn’t last nearly as long on a charge as the competition. What we do like about this netbook is its comfortable keyboard and low $329 price. With a footprint of 10.2 x 7.0 x 1.5 inches, the U135 takes up about as much desk space as other netbooks of its ilk. However, its battery sticks out the bottom of the system, increasing its thickness in the back to 1.5 inches. While not nearly as egregious as the Wind U110, this protrusion is more noticeable than those on many other netbooks with 6-cell batteries. Weighing 2.8 pounds, the U135 disappeared like every other netbook once inside our messenger bag. When we first opened the lid of the U135, we were struck by the similariries between this system and the ASUS Eee PC 1005PE-P (Seashell), and with good reason: The two island-style keyboards are almost identical, and both have a single mouse bar as opposed to discrete buttons.
