Fujitsu Tablet T5010 Vs. Lenovo

Nov 4, 2009 10:30AM PST

I have to choose a Tablet PC. I'm considering so far between Fujitsu Tablets and Lenovo X Series tablets.

I have the following choices. Now I'm getting a good deal on Lenovo (much better than the market price). However, I'm wondering in terms of performance and after sale services, which would be better.

Can anyone who has experience with tablet pcs please share their experience?

Thanks a lot.

I like the Lenova with Windows 7 but then is shows a 4 cell battery compared to the 6 cell of the Fujitsu. So if I need to be away from power for awhile the Fujitsu has the advantage. The Lenova has a larger hard drive which meens more to me the the Fujitsu having a faster clock speed. Lenova has better history in the USA so I would select it unless battery life was my number 1 priority. I might look to see if the Lenova is available with a 6 cell battery and purchase it also.

But Fujitsu has faster processor with processor speed going up to 2.8GHZ. The highest you can get in Lenovo is 1.86Ghz.

Also, a bigger screen i.e. 13.1". The only reason I'm a little reluctant to buy a Fujitsu so far is beacause I'm not sure what their after sales services will be like here.

Someone recommended me that Lenonovo would be much better becuase Lenovo's Processor is very high end dual core processor ultra low voltage cpus. It still very fast, but these are the low voltage processors, which actually are more optimal for tablets PCs. With the multi-touch screen + the benefit of win 7 with multitouch, there's gonna be a lot of power drain esp with the high end processors that fujitsu are offering. Apparently, Fujitu's CPU has double the power drain and most likely I won't be seeing much benefit from it....


Does anyone know if Multitouch is different/better on either one of the computers?

Doing some online search, I find mostly very good reviewes about fujitsu.
