UnLimited Style – for fashion conscious computer users:
The UnLimited Series notebooks are not just powerhouses – they are powerhouses packed into the most stylish and portable of cases, with a profile less than 1 inch thick and a stunning brushed aluminium cover.
The aluminium materials not only lend a contemporary appeal to the notebook, but are incredibly lightweight and provide incredible resilience against bumps and knocks - making it the ultimate mobile device and perfect for work and play anywhere on the move.
Such a slim design is helped by integrating the next generation Intel® CULV processors which run at cooler temperatures – eliminating the need for bulky fans.
UnLimited Time – All-day computing for uninterrupted productivity:
Offering the ultimate solution for all-day computing, the UnLimited series notebooks are fitted with an eight-cell battery, boasting a life of up to 12 hours* - making it easy for users to work wherever, whenever without worrying about finding a wall socket.
Such a staggering lifespan is thanks to extensive power savings generated by the integration of GraphiX Boost technology** (switches between graphics settings depending on whether graphics-hungry applications are being used) and Power4Gear technology.
Power4Gear offers the ability to turn off hardware devices to conserve energy, and has 4 pre-configured power setting profiles to choose from: High Performance (for power-intensive sessions such as gaming), Entertainment (for movies or music playback), Quiet Office (for general word-processing and work activities) and Battery Saving (for basic use on the move, such as emails and web browsing).
UnLimited Performance – for fast and efficient work and play:
The UnLimited Series notebooks integrate Turbo33 Technology, an exclusively designed feature which enhances performance levels by 33% by fine-tuning the hardware and software. Just select the ‘Turbo’ option and the resulting power buzz leads to smoother graphics and online streaming for uninterrupted entertainment whether laughing at the latest clips on YouTube or receiving video messages from friends.
Fuelled by two independent processors within the same package (multi-core) and ample memory inside, the UnLimited Series notebook gives a massive acceleration to everyday computing tasks. Users can watch movies, send emails, research on the Internet and create that all-important presentation at the same time - and still notice a faster, smoother multi-tasking experience.
UnLimited Mobility – for busy people on the move:
The mobile essence of the UnLimited series notebooks is completed with the integration of essential components such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a Web Camera – enabling Internet connection, file share and communication away from the home or office.
UnLimited Audio Visual – for mind-blowing multimedia experiences:
With high definition LCD display (in sizes 13.3” and 15.6”) the UnLimited Series notebooks have a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio and feature high quality dedicated graphics cards** – a supreme blend which delivers true-to-life visuals for an astounding movie or video game experience.
Two bespoke Altec Lansing® speakers with SRS Surround Sound™ support the visual magic, distributing pitch-perfect, top quality sound that you wouldn’t expect from a notebook - by providing a wider frequency range and deeper bass lines – making home movie-nights and popcorn a rival to the cinema.
UnLimited Comfort – for non-stop work without strain:
An ergonomic chiclet keyboard with full-sized numeric keypad** complements the flushed multi-touch touchpad, which provides an up-to-the-minute means of navigating and using the notebook, with fingertip controls such as pinching, scrolling and sliding offers users an intuitive means of browsing and controlling data.
AI Light Sensor technology** enables the UnLimited Series notebook to automatically adjust the screen brightness levels according to the surrounding environment. In dimmer conditions, such as on an airplane, the brightness will lower to reduce glare on the eyes, and outdoors on a sunny day, it will increase to help visibility – so, users can feel comfortable for longer, allowing them to make full use of their 12 hour battery life* without strain.
