Tired of waiting for a new iMac? Take Chinese counterpart, inexpensive

Apple still promises to release new ultra slim and gorgeous 21.5-inch iMac In November, at least a month, and already comes to an end, and those who need more razmerchik have to wait for the 27-inch model until December. Also go terrible rumors about the delay to the already incredible computer next year. With such dramatic events cunning Chinese nameless basement China factories are not asleep and try to calm the excited fans all sorts of alternatives, looks very similar to the one-piece Apple.

One such product offered by Shenzhen Rahway, but the computer itself is called LAVI S21i. This 21.5-inch monoblock in appearance from a distance hardly distinguishable from the iMac, though it is thicker than the original 0.4 cm. Characteristics at: a display resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels, four GB of RAM, two-core Intel Core i3 at a frequency of 3.3 GHz or 4-core 2.9-GHz Core i5. With regard to the amount of disk space, the manufacturer offers two configurations - with SSD 128GB or a hard drive to 500 GB. Working all this "beauty" that is running Windows 8. Are you dreaming about OS X? Prior to this in Shenzhen Rahway still not mature enough. In addition, do not expect high-quality LCD matrix, as in the iMac. The maximum that can be counted - it TN + Film with poor viewing angles and a bleak picture.

Furthermore, LAVI S21i external power supply, it is healthy and terrible. I / O ports are integrated into the bottom face of monoblock. There's even a VGA video output is, and in this iMac is not - at least some advantage. Although, there is one - is the cost of LAVI S21i. For such a remark iMac manufacturer asks only $ 540 to $ 620 depending on the configuration PC. Original in the base in the US will cost from $ 1,300. In general, the normal sentence at a good price, but the only problem is that the quality control in just such strange type offices Shenzhen Rahway is usually absent. Warranty? About her forget too.
