Reviews for the Fujitsu LifeBook UH572
Inexpensive ultrabook with business aspirations. Nowadays it is possible to step into the world of ultrabook for around EUR 800. However, these devices usually feature basic equipment. Fujitsu builds a UMTS modem into its 13.3 inch Lifebook UH572 for this price. Read in this review whether this ultrabook "made in Germany" can compete with the established competition.

Had Fujitsu given the Fujitsu Lifebook UH572 ethernet support and a more robust audio system, I could forgive the unimpressive performance—after all, most consumers won't be running heavy-duty spreadsheets or doing serious video editing. But general users do care about decent multimedia and a good keyboard, and Fujitsu's attention to industrial design and components fell sadly short in those areas, making it difficult to heartily endorse the UH572.

Intel HD Graphics 4000: Processor graphics card in the high end Ivy Bridge models. Offers a different clock speed in the different CPU models (ULV to desktop quad core) and therefore a different performance.

13.3": This is a common display format for subnotebooks. Netbooks, UMPC and some subnotebooks have tinier displays. Nevertheless, the majority of standard laptops has a higher format. The advantage of a small display is, that the subnotebook can be small dimensioned and can be carried easily. Further the small display needs few energy, which improves the battery runtime and in consequence the mobility. The disadvantage is that the reading of texts is a bit exhausting for the eyes, especially with high resolutions.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
1.6 kg: This sub-notebook weighs less than the average of all notebooks and represents a medium class of weight among the sub-notebooks. 11 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
Fujitsu: Fujitsu, founded 1935, is a Japanese company specializing in semiconductors, air conditioners, computers (supercomputers, personal computers, servers), telecommunications, and services, and is headquartered in Tokyo. Fujitsu employs around 160,000 people and has 500 subsidiary companies. The partnership with Siemens AG was established in 1999 in the form of Fujitsu Siemens Computers, one of Europe's largest IT hardware suppliers, and owned 50/50 by Fujitsu and Siemens. 2009, this cooperation was terminated. In future, no laptops will be sold with the brand "Fujitsu-Siemens" but only "Fujitsu".
72%: This rating is bad. Most notebooks are better rated. This is not a recommendation for purchase.
