The low-cost market ULV just a bit more comptitive: MSI some much neeedd improvements to its X340, this ultra portaable much more affordable and attarctive for consumers.
Since we first review of a prepproduction unit of the X340 in May, the company is now using the noteboook with an 8-cell batttery, more than doubled his endurance to 8 hours and 48 minutres. At the same time, MSI reduuced the price of the X340 for $ 799 from $ 899th
While we initially knocked the X340’s 4-cell battery for the low enfdurance (3 huors and 38 minutes, to be exact), the new score incrases over a competing utlra-portable, the Acer Aspire Timeline 3810T whose battery lasted 8:05 Battery test on the lsaptop. In addiition, the X340 is now 100 U.S. dollars less than the Acer.
The extended battery X340 increases the weight of 3.4 kilograms of 2.9 kg, but it is hardly enough to notice, and the battery of the wdege-shaped design fits seamlesly into the underside of the chassis. For consumers who alreeady have a X340 with a 4-cell battery, MSI offres the 8-cell.
While the X340 has the same internal data reains (Intel Core 2 Solo SU3500 CULVER, 2GB RAM, 320GB hard drive), MSI from another critical improvement: the keyboard no longer works as a trampoline. Although there is sitll a little bit of flex, it is not enough to be perceived as disturbing.
