Leap Motion.
Several months ago, this gadget came on the market, and immediately attracted my attention. Operation, based on movement of your hands, without physical contact. The images from Minority Report, where Tom Cruise serves a status board with his hands, was suddenly a lot more science and a lot less fiction. But yes, you have a controller that release is necessary for your montior. Not really useful or so. But still, for $ 80, - a nice gadget at first sight .. So when I was looking for a desktop replacement computer, and actually looked a thick notebook, suddenly pulled the HP Envy 17 j120-ed my attention: there was a Leap Motion integrated into the behuziing! That's nice! Purchasing For the rest, the laptop also fell within the stated requirements: 2.2GHz quad-core i7 processor, full HD touch screen, 16GB RAM, 1.5 TB hard drive, 4 USB 3 ports, card reader and DVD burner. Basically everything I wanted in a PC, but easy to carry. Under the arm Well, easy: all the hardware weighs 3.5 pounds together, so light is not exactly the lap PC. , the total price of nearly € 1300, - is not very low, but I saw him buying business, I VAT recover and the whole journal entry as an investment, the net still quite that bad, and I would venture, although there are few reviews on the net to find. gamble in this price range, there are alternatives, including the Dell Inspiron 17, 7000, and the Asus N750 which are all in the neighborhood in terms of specs. Nevertheless, triggered by Leap Motion HP ordered, which was one day later delivered. That's fast! Boys will be boys, the Only Thing That changes the price of the toys. That proverb went to unpack, because it's still like you unpack the new toy. First impression is positive: chic aluminum look. Nicely finished and packaged. And after pressing the power button on the welcome screen of Windows 8.1 will appear. Fill few things, configure bit and not much later he hangs in the local WiFi network, and we can see how works eea, feels, or (in the case of the Lap Motion) does not feel! Hardware The display is very nice: contrast bright, colorful, and although not measured but reflective, shows that the reflection is not disturbing in practice. With a resolution of 1920x1080 is also watching movies in full HD just fine to do, where the sharpness of the picture nothing to be desired. When surfing the net, the letters stand somewhat small, but fortunately we can now also zoom fine (with touchpad, or on the screen itself, thanks to the touch screen). Works just fine. noise is perfectly fine, with 4 speakers and two subwoofer little Beats Audio built. A headphone jack can be found incidentally on the right side. Touchscreen is getting used to. Do not know if I'm going to use. Many I feel more hear a tablet or phone. With a laptop, I use the touch pad or much prefer a wireless mouse. Anyway: it is done, and it works fine. Sweeping, click, pinch, swipe, 1 or 10 fingers perfectly fine. pity ... What is striking is that the fan can be heard doing his job, even if the laptop itself does still relatively low. Not quite disturbing, but most laptops I've had are basically silent, until they become more responsible, and it is certainly not quiet. If the laptop is going to be for some more computationally intensive tasks actually use the volume of the cooling goes up noticeably, and the sound of the fan more emphatically. keypad consists of black plastic buttons with lighting. That keyboard illumination does the otherwise well, and makes working in dark conditions possible: after all, you need to see which characters you should have no light. The key types as you might expect: light and fine. Nice that they are black, and not have the same color as the body. It is also striking is that the keyboard is not particularly rigid, and just the whole keyboard flexes typing. This is especially noticeable on the left side (say, the block around the 'D'). Doing so on the quality feel, and the price of the laptop, I would not really expect. 's casing is made of plastic, while the competitors in this price range often have an aluminum casing which fits better in terms of look and feel. You could argue that a metal housing which may feel cool when your wrists rest on, but a laptop is used rarely cool, so my opinion is a shame that it is plastic. The performance of the laptop is reasonable, but not in line with what I would expect. Xampp on it, and install Joomla template building is significantly slower than I had hoped. Perhaps the pre-installed Norton anti-virus was to blame for this, but this and other jobs just are not going so smoothly. Little setback. The HP Probook (with i5 processor) of the work (at least for the feeling) faster. , no hands , then of course the reason I chose this laptop:. Leap Motion If you want to know about what Leap Motion is more how it works, and opinions about it: there is to be found on the net enough. This is because for me which is beyond the scope of this laptop review. what is covered inside, is the integration of the sensor, as well as use in conjunction with a laptop. 's Leap is built as a sensor bar, on the right side of laptop under the keyboard. Identified by two red LEDs that light up when the sensor is active. After starting Airplay (and the corresponding course included software) is a brief introduction: how does it work, what can you do, and especially as a showcase course. First impression is positive: this cute, clever, and this is so! When purchasing not only two standard apps on the Leap Motion, as well as five free apps from Leap appstore get. Unfortunately you can not choose, but these five already picked for you: a weather app, a game, an anatomy app, and Google Earth. Fortunately, there are more apps to get, including Touchless, that it should be without touching Windows to operate as possible. However, it still requires some practice, and also the height that you should have in hand relative to the display is a bit uncomfortable. With a fixed display that would not be such a problem, but because the laptop screen at the height of the table begins, and your hands should have a distance of 20 cm from the right speed sensor you'll soon suffer from tired arms. The software is nicely pre-installed, and works flawlessly. Also AirPlay, app-store Leap is fine to use. disadvantage of using the sensor is, however, that the battery has to suffer terribly here: the percentage is deteriorating. Now HP also recommends itself, the Leap can be used as the laptop to the current depends, and since it is primarily a desktop replacement for me, that's a real problem. Actually uses only 9 times out of 10 he will in fact be connected to the power supply. If you still want to work, mobile, turn off the sensor with a simple key combination. Incidentally, the food no lightweight: 120 watts is even firmly call for a laptop. Too bad that there is still a message screen appears after turning on the laptop that the power for this laptop really is not heavy enough. HP has supplied him self else ... Verdict After a week use the laptop is provisionally concluded, however, that Leap is currently not yet transcended the level of gadget and particularly special, funny or interesting, but no final place in the sequence of operating modes has conquered. The novelty is quickly, and then you actually do not use the device and grab your back (literally!) to the mouse. Regarding the laptop itself: in itself good specs, and performance is reasonable, but the wobbly keyboard and the noisy fan is a bit unfortunate. Fortunately, the good image with good viewing angles too which is good. All in all pretty happy, as I expect in this price range is actually better. Finally, after two weeks decided that this laptop and I will not build a long friendship and after contact with the store have I can send it back and got my money back. So now looking for a better solution!
