MSI Wind U160 Review
With an above average performance and a long battery life, the MSI Wind U160 has a lot to offer. But it falls small in the ergonomics department. Lets have a look at its pros and cons in depth:
PROS
DESIGN & WEIGHT
This netbook has a relatively simple design, with a glossy black interior and exterior. Probably its greatest feature is it extremely light weight At 2.6 pounds, it is lighter than the other 10-inch netbooks. Another small detail, which is very convenient, is a small switch on the left side of the notebook
PERFORMANCE
With 1GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive, and Windows 7 Starter Edition this netbook maintains a high performance. Its performance is one of the best in its league, and probably its greatest advantage.
BATTERY LIFE
With a battery life of about 8-9 hours, the U160 is certainly one the best in the netbook league. The average for netbooks is considered 6 hours, hence clearly its battery life is extremely excellent.
HEAT
The U160 also operates at cooler temperatures than most of the netbooks in the same league.
TOUCHPAD
It has a large enough touch pad for simple navigation, and even the touch button is pretty simple to press.
SHOW AND SOUND
It has a 10-inch show (1024 x 600), which displays a decent picture quality with excellent contrast. Even the speakers produc excellent sound quality.
GRAPHICS
With an integrated Intel GMA 3150 graphcis card, the U160 comes with pretty reasonable graphics. The graphics isn’t mindblowing or anything, but compared to the other netbooks in the 10 inch category, the U160 has better graphics.
CONS
KEYBOARD
It has an island style keyboard which is pretty sturdy. But some keys, such as the shift key is undersized, making the typing experience a bit disappointing.
WEB CAM
To get the 1.3 mega pixel web cam one needs to press Fn + F6 to get it to work. It’s a small but annoying aspect of this netbook.
BATTERY
Though it is extremely light, it appears weird and bulky due to the six cell battery protruding from the back. MSI could surely have done a better job of it.
Hence the U160 is certainly giving a its competitors a stiff competition. It has some flaws in the ergonomics department (keyboard and the battery jutting out), but if that doesn’t matter a lot to you, then the U160, with its high performance, higher battery life and light weight, is surely something you should consider
