13 inch new i3 fashion all-around Toshiba L730 pre-evaluation.

IT 168 evaluates that the appearance of mainstream models in the market will take care of the aesthetics of different people as much as possible, and will choose the transfer appearance of multiple colors in the shading film that can highlight the concept more, and the configuration is mainly to meet the mainstream applications and entertainment. Among these mainstream models, Toshiba Satellite L600, L630 and L650 series notebooks won the favor of many mainstream users last year with their fashionable appearance and colorful shell design. I have a gift? This concept is widely known. On 20 1 1 year, Toshiba upgraded L series product lines to L700, L730 and L750, with more fancy colors and patterns and all upgraded hardware configurations. Among them, 13 inch L730 series will be more popular among young people with its compact and fashionable appearance and balanced hardware configuration.

After the release of L730, we selected a Toshiba satellite El 730-T03W, Core II i3 23 10M processor for evaluation. L730-T03W adopts the popular piano-imitating paint effect to treat the fuselage surface, and the size of the fuselage of this product reaches 329x22 1x28mm with the specification of 13 inch.

▲L730-T03W This Toshiba L730-T03W is mainly aimed at mainstream young fashion people. In terms of hardware, according to the latest i3 23 10MM processor and set display, the overall performance of this product can meet the basic office needs. Good workmanship and modern design are the main selling points of this product. L730-T03W chose white as the main color and adopted this year's Calais pattern, which made this opportunity popular with female users. To put it simply, this size has no advantage compared with the mainstream 13-inch notebook on the market, but the larger body size brings better heat dissipation effect, and it is more cost-effective for users to improve comfort through the increase of body thickness.

Advantages: stylish appearance, balanced hardware configuration, mainstream interface, excellent heating control and rich software.

Disadvantages: the fuselage is heavy.

The eye-catching appearance of the new grain fuselage is basically the same as that of the previous generation.

The 13 inch satellite L730 series, which focuses on fashionable colors, has added brown this time. * * There are four color configurations: Teana Black, Snow Crystal White, Wild Rose Red and mocha brown. The L730-T03W we got this time is snow crystal white, which will be more popular with female users. The surface of L730-T03W treated with piano-like paint is as difficult to avoid being polluted by fingerprints and other stains as similar products, but the application of this technology makes the A side of the product have a very eye-catching visual effect. Against the background of the surface piano paint effect, the patchwork lines add a bit of aura to this product.

The surface of L730a adopts Calais pattern ▲ Calais pattern with LOGO? Keller pattern? Our design comes from the French port city of Calais, where gauze and embroidery are world-famous. The unique texture represents the taste and style of the product. The brand-new 3D diamond texture similar to L700/L730 series, which adopts the film extension technology and dazzling colors, adds a bit of romance to the new product. The whole A surface of L730-T03W is white, and the white LOGO in the middle gives people a strong visual impact. The AB side frame of the machine is designed and processed in a sleek way, which not only ensures the beauty, but also provides a better compression structure. In the test, we put our hands on its top cover and pressed it, only a small degree of decline, indicating that this product has good anti-extrusion ability.

▲L730 uses a piano-like paint effect on the B-side screen frame of 13.3 inch screen. Although the border is beautiful, it is easy to be contaminated with fingerprints, which may bring inconvenience to users to watch in strong light. The camera of the machine is still set in the center of the upper border of the screen, and the camera hole is on the left. Because there is no direct shielding, this design will make the product achieve better pickup effect in use.

▲ The camera and microphone are at the top of the screen.

And video indicator ▲ The speaker with the same appearance as the previous generation is above the keyboard ▲ The keyboard area of the left palm rest ▲L730 is a familiar style for users, and Toshiba products are still in use? Wide touch and beautiful keyboard? The main keys of the keyboard are designed in standard size, with large gap between keys, moderate key stroke and good feel. There are stereo speakers on the left and right sides above the keyboard, which looks the same as the previous generation L630. There is only one power button between speakers, and no other shortcut keys are added, which is relatively simple.

▲L730' s right palm rest ▲ Integrated touchpad. The main body of the touchpad with the quick switch L730 above is designed in one piece, and the surface is treated with matte matte effect, which is in sharp contrast with the bright palm rest panel from the side. Right below the keyboard space bar is a shortcut key to control the on/off function of the touchpad, through which the user can quickly turn on/off the touchpad function. This design is very helpful for users who often need text input and other applications.

▲L730 is relatively thick, but it is also conducive to heat dissipation ▲ Interface distribution of L730 ▲ Status indicator light is located on the front of the fuselage ▲L730-T03W adds USB3.0 interface. This L730-T03W (Snow Crystal White) provides users with quite mainstream interface configurations, including 1 USB 3.0 interface, 2 USB 2.0 interfaces and 65438+.

Like previous mobile chipsets based on desktop chipsets, HM65 chipset originated from H65 chipset on desktop. HM65 also adopts single-chip architecture,

internal storage

The control unit (IMC) is integrated in the processor, so there is no MCH (Memory Controller Hub) commonly known as the North Bridge chip. Only one platform control unit, PCH (Platform Controller Hub), undertakes the functions provided by the previous PCI Express controller and ICH (Input/Output Controller Hub), which is usually called South Bridge Chip. HM65 can support up to six SATA 6Gbps interfaces (including eSATA), eight PCI-E 2.0 x 1 interfaces, 14 USB 2.0 interfaces, Hanksville GbE MAC Gigabit Ethernet controller, matrix storage technology, high-definition audio and high-definition audio, and management engine ignition firmware technology. ▲ The default frequency of the Intel(R) HD graphics card integrated in the information core of the core graphics card is 650MHz. Although there are not many advantages in the default frequency, the highest dynamic frequency of the card can reach 1.3GHz, which is more than enough for daily mobile office applications.

▲ The ▲L730-T03W comes standard with Toshiba 320GB SATA hard disk with 5400 rpm.

▲ Two slots can be expanded to 8GB at most. As for the storage system, the L730-T03W we received comes standard with 2GB DDR3 memory and 320GB 5400 rpm hard disk, which is also the mainstream configuration of low-end products at present. As far as daily work is concerned, the overall hardware performance of the machine is enough to meet the daily application of users under the 32-bit system, and if users want to use the 64-bit operating system, they can choose to add 2GB of memory to achieve better running effect.

Performance testing can meet the mainstream home entertainment applications.

We used a series of test software to measure the actual performance of this Toshiba L730. In the test, we installed the English version of Microsoft Windows 7 flagship 6. 1.7600 operating system for testing. The test contents include Windows Experience Index, SYSmark2007 Preview, 3DMark Vantange, PCMark Vantange and other test software.

The PC version of Street Fighter IV is a completely transplanted version of the home computer version, which will correspond to the game functions of Windows Live and support online battles, in-game SMS communication and instant voice chat. In addition to supporting high-resolution screen output, the PC version also provides players with the function of selecting screen rendering style, except for the PC version? Ordinary? Beyond the mode, what else? Watercolor? 、? Poster? And then what? Grey ink? These three additional rendering styles. Players can adjust the display effect according to their own preferences in the game setting options. In the test, we used Capcom official PC performance test software to test, and we chose 1280X720 pixel resolution, and the rest settings used the default settings of the game.

▲ Test results of Street Fighter 4 According to the final test results, for this kind of low-load games, the integrated graphics card is no problem to cope with, and the average test speed is around 24FPS. This performance tells us that users who use this notebook can basically get a smooth picture when running this low-load 3D game. Of course, if users want to get higher speed, they can reduce the quality of the game in the options.

Resident Evil: Karma

Resident evil 5 is the fifth game of this game. This time, the stage of "resident evil 5" is set in a small African country (the story is pure fiction), which is located in an active volcanic zone, spanning Eritrea, Ethiopia and Kenya. At the beginning of the game, the local residents were not infected, but with the outbreak of volcanic activity, the virus gradually spread, turning the local residents into zombies-like killers. In the test, we used Capcom official PC performance test software to test, and we used 1280X720 pixel resolution mode to test.

▲ According to the test results of this part of the test, by default, Toshiba L730 runs at 23.4FPS at the high resolution of 1280X720 pixels, which can only maintain the basic consistency of the game, and the resolution has to be reduced to get a better game experience.

Jet-Leiben limit

Developed by Ubisoft Bucharest Studio and making full use of the benefits of the next generation platform, Sky Eagle Strike brings us a tense and real air combat experience. The story happened on 20 12. When a single nation-state gathers in a denser century, the rules of war develop faster and faster. More and more countries are beginning to increase their dependence on private military companies. The loose position of the law is beneficial to the elite. The Reykjavik agreement further authorized them to integrate all aspects of military work. When interests like private military companies surfaced, the enhanced interests around them gave them enough strength to start expanding. In the test of this air combat game, we still chose 1280X720 pixels for the test, and the other settings are the default settings of the game test tool.

▲ Test results According to the final test results, for this kind of ordinary 3D games, the number of frames ran out of 16FPS, which was difficult to perform. This performance tells us that users who use this notebook will reduce the resolution if they want to get higher speed.

Battery life, actual power consumption and calorific value test

battery life

We mainly use Mobile Mark2007 software to simulate daily office, multimedia production and other major applications to comprehensively evaluate endurance. MobileMark 2007 is a notebook battery life and performance evaluation software based on real applications. Support 64-bit /32-bit versions of Windows Vista/XP (Professional Edition/Home Edition). It has three test modes: productivity module, DVD module, reader module, Will call Adobe AcrobatReader 7.0, Adobe Illustrator CS2, Adobe Photoshop CS2, Apple Quicktime 7. 1, Intervideo WinDVD 8, Macromedia Flash 8, Microsoft Office 2003 Pro、Microsoft Project 2003、Winzip 10.0。

▲L730 battery

6-cell battery,10.8V 48WHr

▲ Screenshot of ▲MOBILEMARK test results During the test, we turned off the screen saver sleep and set the battery and system to the highest performance mode as the test basis. As can be seen from the above figure, this battery standard on N4030 provides us with a battery life of 3 18 minutes, which can meet the needs of most people for office and study. In addition, due to the high pressure in the test, there is usually no continuous high load in practical application, and users can also control it through effective power management measures, so we think that the battery life of the aircraft in practical application should be longer.

Actual power consumption test

We also tested the actual power consumption of this product, and we tested the power consumption of this product in three states. We use UNI-T UT7 1E intelligent digital multimeter as test equipment to measure the power consumption when the power supply is turned on but not turned on (non-charging state), the system starts, but there is no action for 5 minutes, but it does not sleep (non-charging state) and the system starts, the processor is fully loaded, and the disk works at maximum throughput (non-charging state). Power consumption

Standby power consumption of intelligent digital multimeter

0.5 watt

Idle state power consumption

10.7W

High load state power consumption

38.6 watts

In these three cases, the power consumption of L730-T03W (Snow Crystal White) is 0.5W, 10.7W and 38.6W respectively. Compared with some notebook products with similar configurations on the market, the power consumption of L730-T03W is at a relatively low level in high-load working mode, mainly because the integrated graphics card can enjoy longer battery life brought by low power consumption. Caloric value test

Irma AR852B infrared thermometer AR-852B tested the calorific value of this product, mainly measuring the temperature of C surface, bottom surface and radiator of the notebook. EVEREST software was used in the test, the system stability test was selected, and all items were checked. 15 minutes later. At the same time, the indoor temperature is measured, so that readers can have a more intuitive understanding of the test data.

▲L730 Due to the small fuselage space, the cooling holes also generate a lot of heat.
