This ultra mobile sub-notebook comprises plethora of impressive specs. Is this the perfect street warrior machine? Let's take a sneak peek and find out.Design
The HP 2133 Mini-Note has a grand design. Everyone in our workplace agreed that it has a concrete chassis and gorgeous look. The brushed aluminum and synthetic casing is robust and conceals fingerprints well. It also sticks on to the Mini-Note lightweight, only weighing in around 2.86 lbs as configured. It has that lustrous business pleads, but is projected toward students as well. Who wouldn't want a reasonably priced sub-notebook to tote back and out to class; principally one that pretty much has a full-size keyboard?
Performance
Following the remarkable build and design of the HP 2133 Mini-Note we anticipated to see a likewise inspiring level of performance coming out of this minuscule titan. Regrettably, performance is one aspect where the Mini-Note drops short.
On the paper the 1.6GHz VIA C7-M processor is supposed to provide outstanding speed for general computing tasks. In realism, web pages delivered slower than expected, multi-commissioning was agonizingly slow, and most processor-famished appliances like Photoshop or video encoding software never really liked the VIA processor.
The keyboard on the 2133 Mini-Note is enormous. To put it clearly, this is the best keyboard we've ever seen on a laptop this small. The touchpad was embarrassed. Reaction time was a little slow at times, but it is not all that easy to pilot with. The right and left snap buttons are what get you.
The in built speaker presentation on this Mini-Note laptop was quite advanced in comparison with respect to other notebooks in this class.
The ultra low down voltage VIA processor utilized in the HP Mini-Note 2133 produced far higher rate of heat than we normally look forward to from ultra low voltage processors.
Conclusion
The HP 2133 Mini-Note is 1 of the mainly inspiring sub-notebooks we've ever reviewed. Regrettably, the remarkable design and concrete range of skin tone are diminished by a below-par processor and a price tag that positions this laptop hazardously close to far advanced 12-inch laptops such as the HP tx2000.
