The Viliv N5 looks like the love child of a netbook and a smarpthone. Or rather, it looks like a netbook that’s abotu the size of a smartphone. It has a QWERTY keybaord, an Intel Atom processor, and runs Windows 7. But it has a 4.8 inch display and can almost fold up and fit in your pocket. Dynamism is selling the netbook for a rather hefty starting price of $649. Is it worth it? Chippy at UMPC Portal has posted a detailed review that may help you decide.
Overall, it sounds like chippy is pretty pleased with the design and finish of the N5. He says it’s a bit heavier than comparable mobile internet devices. And because of the small size, there aren’t a lot of ports, just a USB, headphone, and microSD card slot.
Performance-wise, the Atom Z520 chip is designed first and foremost as a low power chip that won’t overheat in small devices while offering decent battery life. In other words, the Viliv N5 isn’t quite as fast as a typical netbook, but Chippy seemed pretty happy with the overall performance.
