The Fujitsu V1010 is a newly designed affordable business notebook offered by Fujitsu. This notebook was a direct response to other budget models, including the Sony NR, HP dv6500t, Dell 1520, and Gateway M-6816. The V1010 comes in two main versions: One offers the older Core Duo T2130 processor with 1GB of RAM, with the other having the newer Core 2 Duo T5200 processor with double, or 2GB of RAM. Build and Design of the V1010 is extremely basic and sparse, making some Think pads look like designer notebooks. With an unpainted black plastic lid, cheap silver paint, and the absence of any smooth curves you have to wonder if they looked at the new budget competition before hitting the drawing table. Fit and finish is also lacking with huge gaps around the LCD hinges, giving you a clear view of the hinge bar and exposed wiring. The design of the mechanism used to secure the battery screams cheap, with two plastic springy tabs holding the battery in place. The V1010 clearly emits this sound through the keyboard which is loud enough to be heard even through office background noise. The display on the Fujitsu V1010 is very clear and bright(screen). Colors are vivid, making pictures almost pop out at you, which is a common trend with many glossy screens. Contrast levels are above average, giving you a nice deep black without being washed out. The screen was easily viewable in bright areas, including outside, as long as you didnt get caught with sun glare.Performance With the base model Intel Core 2 Duo T5200 this notebook wont be winning any benchmark contests, but it will be perfectly acceptable for most software.
