Quick test: Netbook at Aldi Medion Akoya E1228 (MD 98 720)

The Akoya E1228 puts the Intel Atom processor N570, the computational core at 1.66 GHz clock speed running. That's enough for working with office applications and for surfing the Internet, for computationally intensive tasks like video editing or image processing is too slow. Like most of the Akoya E1228 for not graphically complex 3D games are suitable.

In the integrated graphics chip Intel GMA 3150 has no own memory, calculates an average of only four images per second. This action games run smoothly, around 40 frames per second are necessary. The ten-inch screen (25.4 inches) is backlit by LEDs. It has a glossy surface that reflects strong.


Disturbing reflections in bright environments. After all, the display offers a bright, high contrast image. The resolution of 1024x600 pixels is typical netbook. The offers 230 memory, the memory has the standard for netbooks size of one gigabyte. wants for Windows 7, the pre-installed programs (Microsoft Office Starter 2010, Ashampoo Burning Studio, Corel Draw Essentials) and the graphics chip can this If you just briefly get his e-mails, read news on the Internet or listen to music, does not need Windows to Music: With Medion fastboot start within seconds a mini operating system.

For wireless communication with mobile Bluetooth 3.0 is onboard. Also, a network connection (LAN) and fast wireless internet access are installed. While the predecessor was still in an early version problems, the USB 3.0 connector convinced this time with very high speed. In operation, Netbook and Trackpad moderate heat.

Except for the occasional clicking of the hard drive is hardly heard. The battery life is by watching videos at work and at five and a half hours. After nearly three hours on the charger to the six-cell Li-Ion battery with 5200 mAh is full again. The Mouse works reliably and accurately.

Slightly notchy: The touchpad is indeed operated with two fingers, such as zoom image content, because of the small area but this is tedious. The keys are taken separately and a good size, but the whole keyboard typing springs and leaves so that no particularly strong impression. A memory card slot and a 1.3 megapixel Webcam are on board.

The Akoya has the following connections: 2.0, USB 3.0 (100 Mbit), VGA, headphone, microphone. The 1250 grams, the netbook has on battery power by long and has a great features: 230-gigabyte hard drive, fast wireless internet in the n-standard, USB 3.0, Bluetooth. Compute-intensive tasks or complex games are not up to mini-notebooks in general.
