CNET Review

August 29, 2008

The Good: Sophisticated looks; decent multitasking performance; handy quick-launch buttons; comfortable keyboard; fingerprint reader doubles as scroll key; both PC Card and ExpressCard slots; HDMI and eSATA ports.

The Bad: Bulky; display resolution doesn't match Blu-ray output; fell behind on Photoshop benchmark; lacks mute button.

The Bottom Line: Though it's slightly bulky for a midsize laptop, the feature-packed Fujitsu LifeBook A6210 does double duty as both a computer and a portable Blu-ray player.
