Reviews for the Fujitsu LifeBook UH572

81% Review Fujitsu LifeBook UH572 Ultrabook | Notebookcheck
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.

Comment

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.

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


3317U: Ivy-Bridge-based ULV-CPU in Q2 2012. Offers a core clock of 1.7 - 2.6 GHz and an HD 4000 GPU (350 - 1050 MHz). The TDP is rated at 17 W.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


13.30":

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


Fujitsu: Fujitsu is a Japanese technology group listed on the Nikkei 225 with origins dating back to 1935. Its products and services focus on information technology, telecommunications, semiconductors, networks, computer and communications products and advanced microelectronics.

In 1999, the cooperation with Siemens in the IT sector (servers, notebooks, desktop PCs, etc.) started under the Fujitsu-Siemens brand. 10 years later, this cooperation ended.


72%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
