Archive.org versionIn the power netbooks category, the MSI Wind U210 emerges a winner thanks to better-than-average performance that doesn’t take a toll on battery life. And it can be used for some gaming, though Ion models boast better performance. The only major negatives are the noise levels and poor-quality display.

Archive.org versionUntil ION-based netbooks start surfacing, the MSI Wind12 U210 is the best bet in terms of netbook performance. If you want a netbook with very good build quality, feature set, and performance, one that comes with a large keyboard and touchpad, the MSI Wind12 U210's a no brainer at Rs. 23,9992.

Archive.org versionThe differences among netbooks are increasing, and the lines between netbooks and notebooks are blurring—at least physically. The MSI U210, for example, is a netbook with a 12-inch screen, full keyboard, fast AMD Neo processor, 2GB of memory, and HDMI port. Its battery life may not inspire frequent travelers, but the U210 is equipped with many parts that typical netbooks don't give you.

Archive.org versionMSI’s Wind U210, the latest generation of Wind-series netbooks, is a bone-crushing competitor in the netbook arena. MSI claims that the U210 performs like a notebook. We tested the Wind's U210-006US configuration (available through MSI for $479 and through Newegg or Amazon for $429.99), and we were blown away by the results. The 3.2-pound U210-006US offers up a stylish design and spectacular performance. The battery life isn’t the best, but we’ve seen much worse in much weaker units that are more expensive. Built around an AMD Athlon Neo CPU, this sleek netbook is a record-breaking performer, but its battery life could be stronger.

Archive.org versionThis inexpensive ultraportable offers better performance than a netbook, but short battery life holds it back. At $479, the MSI Wind U210 is pretty good for the price. It’s not as powerful or long lasting as more expensive ultraportables powered by Intel’s ULV processors, but it’s a viable option for someone who is willing to spend just a little bit more to get a bigger display and better performance than a netbook. Just be sure to remove some of that bundled software if you want a faster boot time.

ATI Radeon Xpress X1250: It is an onboard graphic chip, implemented on AMD M690G. Sometimes, it is also called Mobility Radeon X1250. It is based on X700 design but with less pixel- and vertex pipelines. It hardly suited for players.
These graphics cards are not suited for Windows 3D games. Office and Internet surfing however is possible.

MV-40: Slow single core processor for small and thin laptops. A bit faster than Atom based systems but the power consumption is also higher.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
