Its keyboard is also top -notch, as is its battery resilience that covers a tidy seven hours before running out of juice. The 1600 by 900 resolution is another plus for the machine. The lack of HDMI, coupled with that of display port is a disappointment. The business -machine is also heavy to carry arround.

The networking credentials are quite good, mostly due to the presence of 802.11n wireless with a speed that can rival any of its peers.

The E5510 scores a mark of 107 on the WorldBench Test, quite useful for a device of its league. There are some notable drawbacks in video performance, especially in High -Definition movies, where dark scenes appear muddled and action -packed clips suffer from obvious motion artifacting.

But the device does not have eSATA port. The machine covers a width of 14.6 inches, a depth of 10.6 inches and a height of 1.4 inches. The weight is a good 6 pounds 2 ounces, that tops seven pounds when fully stuffed with assortments. The machine comes with an excellent keyboard and a pretty responsive keyboard.
