Fujitsu LifeBook P7120 Review

Fujitsu LifeBook P7120Laptop Magazine reviews the P7120, and I have to say, as much as they are not impressed with a variety of things with the P7120, I can see how it earned itself a three and a half out of five: battery life. With one battery the machine lasts an amazing six and a half hours, and if you replace the optical drive with another battery, you can expect up to thirteen hours of battery life. That is almost two whole business days before needing to charge up again.

For those who spend more time on the road than in their offices, there’s the Fujitsu LifeBook P7120. This 3.2-pound ultraportable, decked out in a satin black finish (with a metallic gray base), weighs a little over three pounds yet packs in all of the features a road warrior could want. With a TPM chip and fingerprint sensor built in, it’s a good business-minded alternative to Sony’s 2.8-pound VGN-TX650P that costs $50 less.

In order to offer such a compact design, the P7120 features a small, 10.6-inch widescreen display. It’s fine for taking notes in Word and watching DVDs up close using the built-in optical drive, but its glossy coating has a tendency to reflect ambient light, which can be particularly annoying when working with an application like Word.
