Evesham Voyager C550 Review
Trusted Reviews take a look at the C550 from Evesham. This is not a company I am familiar with, as they seem to be a UK company not marketed in Canada, but they earned a slightly above average rating on their new Centrino Duo laptop.
As the dust settles on the Intel Centrino Duo launch, several machines based on the new technology have started to appear on the market. After the Acer TravelMate 8204WLMi our second Centrino Duo laptop comes from a UK company - not what you expect when you have massive players like Dell, IBM and HP on the case. The Voyager C550 is actually rather cunningly using an established Asus chassis and this is why Evesham has a product available so soon after the launch.
If you want all the technical details about the new platform I’d suggest you go and read the Acer review as it covers all the basics of what the new Centrino Duo platform has to offer. The Voyager C550 isn’t as highly specified as the Acer, but it also cost a lot less as a result. The processor is an Intel Core Duo T2400 clocked at 1.83GHz, which in itself isn’t bad. But the T2400 also represents the best value in the Core Duo range, offering great performance while costing considerably less than the 2GHz T2500 seen in the Acer.
It looks like everyone is jumping on this new processor, but without Intel supplying more of the components of the laptop, will it have the performance and battery life that Intel was hoping for their new super-mobile processor?
