7 advantage of Ultrabook as a revolutionary of mobile computing

Starting from the CES 2012 in Las Vegas, many observers are predicting that this year will be the year for Ultrabook.

Ultrabook itself is one possibility to fight the "raged" the development of tablet PCs on the market today. Ultrabook is actually a combination of portability of a netbook with the ability of a notebook as a whole. Following I will present how a Ultrabook could revolutionize the world of mobile computing

1. Thinner and Linghter

Naturally, the Ultrabook has a body that is thinner and lighter than laptops in general but with comparable capabilities. In general, the specification of Ultrabook is to have a maximum thickness of 0.8 inches and weighing less than 3.1 pounds, which means Ultrabook has the thickness and weight of about half the weight and thickness than the average notebook making it easier for users to remain mobile.

2. Endurance

Other specifications are also required by Intel is Ultrabook must have a minimum battery life of 5-8 hours. As we know, the battery life is one of the biggest obstacles when used in the course notebook. With a Ultrabook that has battery life of about 8 hours, then you no longer need to carry a spare battery in a confused way. So what's the secret? As energy efficient as the current stable of ultrabooks acres, Pls the Ivy Bridge Intel processors hit the street later this year, Will Things get even better. Ivy Bridge processors are lower voltage, and run more efficiently, the which Will allow ultrabooks to extend battery life well beyond eight hours.

3. Tablet / Laptop Convertibles

For some people, there are several more advantages they can get by just using a traditional desktop OS. But you should also know that the tablet also has some advantages on the other side. You can probably just take a tablet and Ultrabook simultaneously. But there is another alternative you can try. Recently some vendors have introduced a product that combines both in one device so as to provide a different experience. For example, Lenovo is launching a product that blurs our perception. Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga .. Glance Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga. Looks like Ultrabook. But the screen is removable so that it becomes a standalone tablet. Awesome!

4. Touchscreen

PC enthusiasts will probably fight this to the death, but for most routine computer tasks touchscreens will replace the conventional mouse and key pad. The main program of Windows 8 is designed to be an involved, touchscreen display screen experience, and ultrabooks equipped with touchscreen display will enable users to take advantage of the benefits of using and hitting a gesture-based interface, while still having a conventional desktop OS and key pad / track pad to fall back on.

5. Speech Recognition

While touchscreen display screen connects are changing the landscape of processing, the long run is voice identification. Speech orders have been around for years, but Apple raised the bar with Siri on the iPhone 4S, and at CES 2012 cool gadgets of all designs are being introduced that can be managed and handled with your voice. Apple revealed that upcoming ultrabooks will incorporate voice identification to bring that “Siri-like“ experience to the mobile PC as well.

6. Included Security

Intel is also established to provide a more protected mobile with a computing experience. It used a good slice of money to obtain McAfee so it would have the protection practical experience to include protection into its design. Intel provides intek Anti-Theft Technology (AT), and Intel Identity Protection Technology (Intel IPT) as alternatives for its ultrabook components. Intel-AT allows you disarm use of your information from anywhere in the world in the occurrence that your ultrabook is missing or thieved. If and when it is retrieved, it can be reactivated with no effect to the information. Intel-IPT allows protected your individuality and private information.

7. NFC

Some ultrabooks, like the HP Envy 14 Spectre unveiled at CES 2012, also come equipped with NFC technology. NFC -- or Near Field Communications -- is a short-range wireless protocol used in smartphone like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus to facilitate making payments. The HP Envy 14 Spectre might be capable of transacting payments as well, but the NFC in the HP ultrabook is designed to enable wireless information sharing between NFC-capable devices.

The ultrabook is everything mobile business users rely on with their traditional notebooks, combined with most of the benefits and advantages of netbooks or tablets, with some extra tricks thrown in. It is a powerful combination that has the potential to revolutionize mobile computing.

Maybe only time will tell whether it is ultrabook brilliant evolution of the PC laptop, or a desperate grasp by Intel to redefine the category and maintain some relevance in the mobile world that threatens to leave.
