Screen
If the current course the laptop with high-quality display is worth more than 21 thousand rubles, and have unnecessary functionality, for which accounts pay. Jumper Ezbook 2 not only hit on the wallet, but do not spoil schoolboy eyes.
The angles of the display notebook review spec-compliant: close to 178 degrees, color inversion is practically not observed.
Brightness varies within reasonable limits: a minimum level suitable only for use in total darkness, and the maximum will be sufficient under bright artificial light. For very sunny day stock brightness is not a bit lacking.
Body assembly
Gorgeous screen is not the only killer-feature devices. Among the advantages of the device should be recorded and the body itself. It is made based on the MacBook: the logo on the cover, even with the backlight. True, the housing is made sufficiently soft plastic.
The keyboard is very good: full-size, with a nice, soft stroke keys. On top of the standard F1 - F12, Pause, Print Screen, Insert, Delete... and the power button. Power near the Backspace and Delete - this is a big miscalculation.
Build quality, without backlash. With a very active printing keyboard flexes a little, but that's not really embarrassing. Noticeably, if look closely, but no more.
The touchpad is made of plastic. It supports the standard for Windows 10 gestures and has two buttons. Pressing a distinct stroke is large enough - chance excluded.
Plastic has reduced the weight and 1.15 kg. However, the filling is also played a role.
hardware Features
In Ezbook 2 set light motherboard from the tablet. It is soldered processor Atom x5-Z8300, 4GB of RAM and a 64 GB LPDDR3 permanent memory.
Processor - the younger, the cheapest in the line. It has four cores with frequency to 1.84 GHz, 2MB cache and tiny heat. In addition, it includes graphics core Intel HD Graphics with DirectX 11.2 support.
Performance x5 line close to Intel Core i3 previous generations. Budget Intel solutions for laptops like Celeron or Pentium running at the same level or slightly better. But even if the Atom processor loses power, its performance video chip stretches more nimble.
It limits the hardware capabilities of slow non-volatile memory. Instead of the classic hard disk 2 used in Ezbook eMMC-storage capacity of 64 GB, unsoldered on the motherboard. So to increase the amount of disk storage is possible only through USB-flash drives, connected via USB 2.0 and USB 3.0, and microSD memory cards up to 128GB.
In addition to these interfaces, is in the creation Jumper charging port (2.5 mm round plug), microHDMI for video output to a monitor and a headphone. The device is equipped with modules Bluetooth 4.0 and Wi-Fi (a band). There is a camera of 1.3 megapixel, but it is enough for Skype.
The bottom panel of the lattice are two loudspeakers. The sound is fairly quiet (the film will be able to see only in relative silence), but without wheezing and distortion.
Performance
Lead tests with "parrot" is pointless: all important real-world performance. It is sufficient for basic educational level tasks.
You can work freely in microsoft OfficeEdit files c low resolution in Photoshop or view a variety of content in the browser. 15-25 Chrome with tabs and extensions works without lags.
Ezbook 2 could scroll 4K video with additional codecs, open the assembly of the 15 items in the "KOMPAS-3D», perform calculations in Wolfram Mathematica. In Microsoft Visual C ++ (Builder) and Python 3.0, you can actively work on small projects.
If desired, one can even run a complex package for simulation of the physical modeling such as ANSYS or COMSOL. Resources enough to draw an object, scatter boundary conditions and describe the required variables. The calculation is possible, but will take considerable time.
If you want to play is also possible. Laptop pulls World of Tanks, but with minimal graphics and a resolution of less than Full HD. Good working Heroes V, the entire line of Half-Life 2. Something more modern devices can not.
Runtimes
The Jumper Ezbook 2 uses non-removable battery on the 10000 mAh. It's a little, but if you want a laptop can be disassembled and install another battery.
The battery life is strongly dependent on brightness and performed tasks. When used with Wi-Fi and a minimum illumination of the screen the battery is completely discharged in 7 hours leisurely surf and work in Word. If the same brightness to watch a video on YouTube Full HD, the laptop turns off after 4 hours.
When the maximum luminance the same scenario plant a battery to zero already after 2.5 hours. How-and 3D-games. Surfing with bright display will no longer 4-6 hours.
operating system
Another nice thing: the device has a pre-installed and activate Windows 10. Extra applications, inhibiting operation of the device, no.
The operating system out of the box in English. Russian is set in the settings. After downloading the package it is possible to expose the core. Problems does not arise.
conclusions
Despite many shortcomings, Jumper Ezbook 2 - quite an interesting device with a specific target audience and purpose. Sufficient capacity, good screen, low cost - what else is needed for a school laptop?
If you look closely, analogues $ 190 (12 500 rubles) is not found. Laptops with comfortable for long life and safe for the developing of the display are not less 21 thousand rubles.
