Windows 7 Netbook with Intel Core i7 Processor

Core i7 Netbook

The base model of the netbook packs Intel Core i7-620UM vPro processor running at 1.06GHz but you can configure it to get the top of the line version - the Core i7-650UM at 1.20GHz. This processor benefits from Intel’s Turbo boost technology that allows the speed to flex up to 2.13GHz depending on usage. It manages to include this in a chassis weighing just 0.93kg, whilst also bundling a 3100mAh battery rated to last for 7.5 hours. It also features 2GB RAM by default which is again configurable up to 4GB, 250GB HDD and Windows 7 Professional 32-bit. It also has integrated graphics, a choice between a 500GB hard drive or a 128GB SSD, along with 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi, VGA output and Bluetooth. The “Let’s Note” also includes a PC Card slot, an SD / SDHC reader, two USB 2.0 ports and VGA output. WiMax is also an option.

What’s most surprising about this netbook is the battery expectancy: Panasonic claims a 7.5 hour battery life from the standard three cell 3,100mAh battery. This definitely must have something to do with the Core i7 mobile processor which is giving this netbook a very impressive battery life.

Panasonic has announced a new line-up of “Let’s Go” notebooks and amongst them is a netbook “Let’s Note”, sporting the new Intel Core i7 processor. The netbook in question boasts of a 1.20GHz Intel Core i7-650UM vPro processor with a 10.4-inch (1024 x 768) display. Intel’s Atom chip is the standard stuff that is showing around all over as the driving CPU of the 10.1 inches netbooks these days like the Dell Mini and HP Mini, so to have a netbook with Core i7 is surely an amazing thing for this form factor.
