Fujitsu LifeBook A1110 Review

The Fujitsu Lifebook A1110 is a 15.4-inch desktop replacement which comes with a swappable exterior panel and a a spill resistant keyboard. Our favorite part for this laptop is no doubt the colorful swappable snap-on lids which includes a pretty pink butterfly design!


On performance and overall features, the Fujitsu Lifebook A1110 seems to be an average laptop. PCMag has rated it 2.5 out of 5 stars. They found the laptop to be a good performance machine with 3GB of RAM and a decent processor (their review unit comes with a 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T5800).They also mentioned that the laptop has an intensely bright screen, and a relatively low price. But on the negative side, they found the laptop battery too small, and the snap-on lids are a bit tacky.

"Bottom Line
The A1110 would fare better against the competition had Fujitsu spent more time designing a sleeker-looking chassis."

"This laptop is the perfect size for the road warrior who wants to get online while on the go, and who also wants something that looks flashy. Its colour might be a little too feminine for most guys' taste, but women might find it irresistible.

If you want the ultimate in mobility and functionality, and you also want a unit that stands out, the P8010 Pink Gold edition is definitely worth your time. But if you do buy it, be gentle with it as it doesn't look like it can handle too many bumps and bruises from everyday commuting."
