Powerful and light with endurance

This laptop is the best of both worlds. Powerful, fast, light with great battery life. I highly recommend the EliteBook line, especially these little 12" monster machines.

Love it despite its weight, since it is not what you would call light weight by any means. However, you can recharge your iPhone / iPad multiple times and still have energy to burn.

Reasons for five stars.
1. Very light and powerful for a cordless pruning tool, with great run time. I charged it and pruned shrubs for more than 1hr. and it still had some charge left.
2. very well made and easy to use, and blade change is also very simple.

We were very surprised at how light and powerful this tool is. Battery had more than enough life to do the job. Used it for about 2 hours streight
and the battery showed no signs of weakness. Blades were sharp and cut very well.

Used this on a recent week long business trip and this is both light enough and powerful enough to easily have the battery in one pocket attached to phone in another and charging.  I have another power pack that is actually much heavier, so was pleased to find a highly rated portable charging device that was light enough that it wasn't a burden.

Weight: At 4.2 pounds I wouldn't call it light as air but it is very portable and I have no problems carrying in hand. If it's in a backpack I hardly even notice it there. My books are heavier and more cumbersome. The slim design definitely helps in making it that much more portable also. If you want something that so light it wows you every time look for a laptop weighing 3.5 pounds or less. Again, I have no problems carrying this laptop around with me all day. I weight 135 lbs as a reference point.

Battery: This is really where it shines. You really do get a little more than 8 hours if everything is turned down. But since I don't work for 8 hours straight on a laptop I turn up the brightness, stream video, browse websites, use Word, listen to music and still get an amazing 6 hours plus. The AC adapter is small and light weight if you need to carry it around.

Design: The lid is made of aluminum and unfortunately is a finger print magnet (maybe I just have oily fingers). The notebook is in a very conservative gray. It won't turn any heads but that's perfect for me in a meeting or in class. The keyboard is flat surfaced but feels great, took almost no time to get used to it. Overall the notebook feels very sturdy with a little bit of flexing if I press hard on the side of the keyboards. Hinges have a good feel to them.

Performance: It won't play 3D games nor can you do intensive video editing but it's more than fast enough to do your basic tasks. Basic meaning email, web browsing, music, occasional DVD, using Microsoft Office 2007. I can have Office, Firefox with multiple tabs and music running with no slow downs at all. This is probably 80% of consumers anyway. It also loads and runs Photoshop just fine. However it will not run YoutubeHD since it is flash based and depends solely on the processor. DIVX and videos codecs that can offload to the GPU work just fine. I was able to watch videos in 720p just fine.

Important notice: You MUST MUST update the video driver, LAN driver, and Bios to get it to function correctly. The initial drivers caused the machine to run very slow and crash often. After the update it runs perfectly. If I could take a half star I would. I ended giving it five stars because it comes with a free upgrade to Windows 7, which makes this machine last even longer, run even faster, and would not have had the initial driver problems. Can't wait for the retail release!

This thing is a beast!  For the price and for being electric, I was skeptical, but just needed it for a quick job.  It has ended up lasting a few years and is very durable even though it is lightweight.  The ability to fold it down for storage and the carry handle are a nice touch.  Keeping the cord out of the way is a pain, but that's just the nature of using an extension cord.

I ordered this drill to replace some very old drills with battery technology that suffered from the 'memory problem'.  This drill is a lot smaller and lighter than my old ones, but it packs a lot of punch.  I just finished a garage project hanging Gladiator Gearwall, and had to drive over 1,000 2" deck screws.  This little guy was well up to the task.  It drove about 300 screws on a single charge (no pre-drilling), and by the time the battery was dead, the 2nd battery was fully charged and ready for action. I never had to wait on batteries.  Also, with the Litheon technology, the battery discharge curve is very steep, i.e the drill will drive very well until it is ready to die - you won't even know until about the last couple of screws that it is ready to give up. That's the way a drill should operate - effective until end-of-charge.

I also like the size - the head can get into smaller areas.  The product comes with a zippered soft nylon case. I would have preferred a molded plastic case - that's probably my only gripe about this purchase.

I bought this as a lightning deal on Prime Day for an upcoming backpacking trip on the Appalachian Trail.  I used this little sucker to completely charge my iPhone X 3 times on my trip and it still had one light of charge left.  I love how small and light this thing is (about the size of a deck of cards and only 6 oz).  My hiking partners also had 10,000 mAh batteries with them but they were all either much larger or heavier (phone sized or > 1lb).  My only complaints are the lack of options for charging it.  I have another power bank that has an inlet port for lightning cables.  Since I'm an iPhone user, I have to carry my iPhone cable plus the standard USB charger that comes with the power bank in order to charge it and use it properly.  Not a major hassle, but a bit of a gripe when other power banks have this feature and iPhone users are not exactly a small chunk of the market.  Still, when you're backpacking over 100 miles every ounce and every extra item can be very annoying.  I also thought that the battery pack took a while to charge fully, though it would charge my phone quickly.  I'd recommend charging the pack overnight while you sleep if you're taking a trip into town with one of these.  But, I can't complain much because it survived rainy, humid, hot, and cold conditions in Maine along with plenty of bouncing around on my back and it survived just fine.  Great pack and great bargain.  Just expect to need an extra cable and to have long recharge times.

I love how light and portable it is. Also pretty durable as I've banged it around some when traveling and it's  still working.

This is a great jumpstarter. It is fairly light and compact, as these things go. I've had it for over a year now and it keeps taking a charge even with heavy use.

Lightweight and powerful, pleased with purchase.

I just got this and wow!  This thing is LIGHT!  I was surprised at how powerful and light it was even with the battery on.  I coupled this driver with the made-in-Germany Hitachi 725405 3/8-Inch Keyless Conversion Chuck for 1/4-Inch Hex Impact Drivers and it is a matched made in heaven.  At first I was going to get a drill only but after reading the reviews on the Hitachi keyless chuck and how successful people have been using their impact drivers as drills, I finally did the same.  Boy, is it worth it and saves me from having to buy a dedicated drill!  This driver is powerful and the 3 speed switch helps out a lot.  The high rpm helps make it a worthy drill.  Being an R/C car modeler and experiencing brushless power, I believe this is the future for all electric motors and Makita is smart for using this technology.  No brushes means less friction and higher efficiency which inevitably means longer run times and smoother speed stepping.  One other feature I thought was very cool and useful is the built in battery level indicator.  Surprisingly, I haven't used a Makita Li-Ion battery for 10 months and when I plugged it in to the bare bones driver only, it battery level is still peaking!  Amazing. Gotta love Makita!

Compared to other micro quads this would have to be the toughest built that I've seen.  It takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'!  It's stable and forgiving in beginner's mode and has ok speed in advanced.  Since it's a bit heavier than comparable quads it needs extra power when being flipped in order to maintain atitude.  It's worth noting that the yaw rate is on the slow side in both modes and that the low voltage warning kicks in just a bit late.  You'll start losing power just prior to the lights starting to flash.  All in all though, its toughness and forgiving nature make it an excellent quad for beginners and a decent all around quad for any micro quad enthusiast.
