fujitsu have outed two new mainstream notebooks, the LifeBook A530 and the LifeBook AH530. Each has a 15.6-inch 16:9 widescreen display – available with glossy or matte finishes – together with a choice of Intel Core i3, i5 or i7 processors, up to 8GB of DDR3 memory, 500GB of HDD storage and optional Gobi 2000 WWAN.
There’s also standard WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR and a DVD burner, while graphics are taken care of by Intel’s HD GPU. Connectivity includes HDMI, a multi-format memory card reader, VGA, three USB 2.0, gigabit ethernet, audio in/out and an ExpressCard 54 slot.
Fujitsu reckon owners will see up to 4hrs runtime from the standard 4,400mAh 6-cell battery. No word on pricing or availability as yet, but we’d expect the two new machines to arrive soon.
