Viliv S5 Defies Mobile Phone and Laptop Technology

Steve McBrian 11/13/2009 3

Viliv S5A brand new Ultra-Mobile PC technology is coming your way with Viliv S5, which many critics have considered as successfully been able to merge the features of an iPhone and your regular netbook into one. Thus, you can just imagine the powerful features that this technology is equipped with to truly suit your technological needs.

Features

Many people are anticipating the release of the Viliv S5 laptop as it offers great value to your money knowing that this single system is capable of performing two distinct functions of different devices, notably that of a netbook and an iPhone. Physically, this laptop is very well design and compact for convenience of use and portability. There are up to three unique configurations available for this system weighing only up to 14 ounces. There is the 60GB hard drive with no 3G slot for $599, the 32GB hard drive with no slot for $699, and the 32GB hard drive with a 3G slot for $799.

One unique feature in Viliv S5 is the keyboard on-screen software, which will require someone to familiarize with it before one can enjoy the benefits of this feature. The basic steps to using the keyboard software are to press a hardware button to bring up an icon on the screen to display the QWERTY keyboard. The keyboard takes up the entire lower half of the screen, which can bring about some clutter unless you have figured out how to use this efficiently.

When it comes to actual performance and usage, you can heave a sigh of relief that Viliv S5 delivers reliable systems for you to use including Windows XP Home Edition, Windows Media Player, and other basic connectivity tools such as Bluetooth and WiFi to browse the internet with ease or share file conveniently.

Pros

Contemplating on buying this gadget of retail shelves? Here are some of the essential features and advantages that you can enjoy by doing so:

  • The battery life for Viliv S5 is quite reliable such that you can enjoy a maximum of 6 hours video playback and 4.5 hours of video streaming. Meanwhile, you can use it for nearly an entire day without the battery giving up on you.
  • Connecting to the internet using the built-in WiFi connectivity is very easy and efficient, such that it can even support video streaming without suffering from lags or other connectivity problems.
  • The speaker in itself is capable of producing quality sounds but the headset that comes along with the package helps to bring up that quality even higher.
  • The 1.3GHz Intel Atom processor used on this laptop delivers maximum speed and performance.

Cons

Despite the advancements in feature, the Viliv S5 also had its share of issues, including the following:

  • Setting up the 3G and GPS system can prove to be futile with lack of instruction manuals or efficient support.
  • This might not be the most ideal to use for people that does a lot of typing on their computer since the software keyboard can often prove to be a nuance.

    Hi – really good web site you have made. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to issue a comment to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically delightful. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor for a marketing firm. I have always enjoyed playing with computers and am attempting to learn code in my free time (which there is never enough of lol).
