The name of the dual screen laptops is slowly catching the name in the
Indian market. So what new things does this dual screen laptop has to
offer? Will it be comfortable holding it? What's the price? Will the
typing in the dual screen laptop be as comfortable as that in the
other laptop? These are some of the questions that will be answered in
this review.
Talking about the dual screen laptop it is being projected as a laptop
that are only for the higher class, a laptop that can be seen in any
of the CEO'S table as such. With the price it has been targeted at it
does appears to be like that only. In reality the performance and the
design is as normal as a any normal laptop. So what is it that makes
it too costly? Well that's the dual 14 inch touchscreen that is being
introduced in the laptop. It takes place of the keyboard as well as
the touchpad. So how exactly is the typing experience? Let me tell you
that the typing experience is quite moderate having got used to typing
in the iPhones as well as the iPad for small purpose it is the same
experience that you get while typing in here. Anyways in the laptop
typing does becomes a integral part which is not the case in the iPad.
So that features does lacks in the Acer Iconia Tab 6120.
Specifications
The Acer Iconia Tab 6120 comes with a 4GB, 667MHz DDR3 RAM, the
processor is 2.6GHz Intel Core i5 480M, also there is no facility of
ssd here, 640GB of External memory, it has got a integrated Intel GMA
HD graphics card, running on a windows 7 operating system and weighs
2.7 KG.
Now its time to have a detailed look at all the features of this
particular laptop.
First lets start with the design
Design
When having a overall look at the laptop the looks will not appear to
be sleek. The heavy chassis is covered by light bronze lid with black
accents and it looks very heavy in hands. Although we must appreciate
the work to manage the 14 inch large screens in a single laptop. So
that is quite commendable. So on opening the laptop it does appear
that two iPads are joined in the middle and both the screens are
covered by glossy edge-to-edge glass with black bezels. That's
impressive. So now you must be wondering whether how you will get the
on screen keyboard in the screen. So for that what you have to do is
to touch all the ten fingers slightly on the bottom of the screen and
place thew palm where it is normally placed. Having done that the on
screen keyboard will get appeared. However if you don't want to go by
that method then there is a dedicated physical button for the keyboard
on the side of the laptop. The speakers are at the bottom and the
voice quality of the speakers are quite good.
The on screen keyboard does looks good and has some larger keys to
make you ease in typing. Although the functions keys does appear to be
quite small and hence trying out the different key combination's can
be a little cumbersome. One more negative point of this keyboard is
that it does not have the auto correct feature by which your typing
become simple rather it has a t9 dictionary type technology that will
make the typing experience not so enjoyable.
Coming to the virtual touchpad it lies just beneath the keyboard. The
control of the cursor is well managed but here also the touchpad does
appears to be very small and lacks the multi touch functionality which
is becoming increasingly popular among all the other laptops.
However the developers have done a good thing by the introduction of
the touch control ecosystem. A jog wheel does gets launched on tapping
of five fingers on the bottom of the screen and will give acess to
various shortcuts like touch-friendly photo and video applications, a
social media aggregator, as well as a two-screen custom Web browser
and also some shortcuts to power buttons. This is a pretty cool
feature introduced by them.
