HP Mini 5103 clone stuffed with NVIDIA ION, DVD drive

Brad Linder — Fri, 08 Oct 2010 11:18:21 +0000

The HP Mini 5103 may seem like the netbook that has it all -- an all-metal case, 7200RPM hard drive, optional HD and touchscreen displays, an optional dual core CPU, hard drive sensor to prevent damage, and even a battery indicator built right into the battery. But you know what it doesn't have? NVIDIA ION graphics. Fortunately there's always a...

HP Mini 5103 dual core netbook review

Brad Linder — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 14:14:38 +0000

The HP Mini 5103 is the latest business-class netbook from Hewlett Packard. Physically it looks almost exactly like the HP Mini 5101 and 5102 which precede it. The primary difference is that in the US the netbook is only available in a new dark brown "espresso" color. Under the hood, the HP Mini 5103 has all the things that made...

HP Mini 5103 business netbook in the works

Brad Linder — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 22:39:50 +0000

[/caption] HP appears to be preparing to refresh its business class netbook line with a new model called the HP Mini 5103. For the most part, this model looks like the HP Mini 5102 I reviewed a few months ago. But the new model will come with a choice of a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N455 or 1.86GHz Intel Atom N475...

If you’re going to clone a netbook, why not the packaging too?

Brad Linder — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 15:23:07 +0000

We've seen dozens of netbooks come out of Shanzai shops in China which look like exact replicas (or at least distant cousins) of name brand computers. But one company is taking things to a new level by not just cloning the look and feel of the HP Mini 5102 netbook -- but also cloning HP's packaging... sort of. Tenda's HP...

HP Mini 5102 review (netbook for business, education markets)

Brad Linder — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 23:13:59 +0000

Most netbooks are designed to be cheap and portable above all else. As such, most netbooks are made of cheap and have inexpensive and often tiny keyboards that aren't really designed to stand up to a lot of wear and tear. And then there's HP's line of netbooks designed for business and education customers. These netbooks tend to cost more than their consumer-oriented...

HP Mini 5102 touchscreen display: A mixed bag (Video)

Brad Linder — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 17:20:30 +0000

HP offers an optional touchscreen display for the HP Mini 5102. This premium netbook is targeted at business and education customers, so it's likely that most of the folks that get their hands on this particular model will get it through school or work. But if you feel like foregoing the relatively inexpensive "Smart Buy" configurations on the HP Small...

Brad Linder — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 16:48:56 +0000

The HP Mini 5102 is the latest business and education-focused netbook from Hewlett Packard. It has a higher starting price than most netbooks, at $399 and up. But it also comes with a number of features that you won't find on most netbooks, including: All-metal chassis with anodized aluminum and light weight magnesium alloy 7200RPM hard drive (or high speed...

HP Mini 5102 now available with 1.83GHz CPU

Brad Linder — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 19:39:31 +0000

As expected, HP is now offering customers the option of configuring the HP Mini 5102 business netbook with a 1.83GHz Intel Atom processor. The processor upgrade is only $25, but there's a slight catch -- it's not available on any of HP's "Smart Buy" configurations. And that means you'll end up paying at least $543 to purchase the HP Mini...

HP Mini 5102 clone, complete with the HP logo

Brad Linder — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 21:25:36 +0000

Chinese companies have been producing cheap knockoffs of big name laptops for years. But you know what most of them lack? Big name branding. Fortunately, at least one Chinese manufacturer realizes that the same thing is true for fake brand name laptops as fake brand name handbags: They're more attractive if you don't know they're fake. With that in mind,...

HP netbooks to get Atom N470 spec bump

Brad Linder — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 15:08:53 +0000

HP is one of the first netbook makers promising to deliver netbooks with Intel's recently unveiled (although long suspected) Atom N470 processor. The new CPU clocks in at 1.83GHz, which is a little faster than the 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 found in most of the netbooks released over the past few months. Register Hardware reports that the HP Mini 5102...

When HP introduced the new Mini 5102 business-oriented netbook, the company promised that the base model would sell for $399 and up. But it looks like you might have to wait a little while to pick one up at that price. HP recently added the netbook to is small business web site, and the cheapest price for a pre-configured HP...

HP Mini 5102 reviewed… again

Brad Linder — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 13:54:07 +0000

The HP Mini 5101 was one of the best netbooks I tested in 2009. It had an excellent keyboard, great battery life, and incredibly sturdy build quality. While it did cost a bit more than a typical netbook, the HP Mini 5101 was designed for business users who might have an easier time justifying the premium price tag. And it's...

Brad Linder — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 17:31:17 +0000

The HP Mini 5102 may have just been introduced to the world this morning, but those crazy kids at Laptop Magazine have already published a detailed review (something tells me they managed to get their hands on a demo unit before this morning). The verdict? HP has made one of the best netbooks around even better. Basically the HP Mini...
