Quick Review - Tested the robustness BlackBerry Playbook

Tough, that's one word that immediately came out when detikINET tested the ability of the tablet PC made by Research In Motion, BlackBerry Playbook. What kind of ability? Check out the short review.

Eve Playbook true toughness can be directly felt when I first held this product. With less than 1 inch thick and weighing no more than 1 pound makes this device firmly in hand.

RIM still do not want to reveal what material they use to wrap the Playbook. Clearly not from the plastic cover behind it, but use some kind of solid rubber.

Front view of the free Playbook. The navigation controls directly interact with the sensitive touch screen. The presence of only the button at the top, that is for the on / off and three multimedia buttons (forward, backward, and pause). While at the bottom there is an HDMI jack and micro USB.

To start the Playbook, staying just brush your fingers. The screen on this device is so sensitive, do not need pressure to operate it. Stay touch and feels comfortable to type.

First we try to go to the image. From there a series of group photos, Playbook capable of displaying a collection of these photos with smooth, with no excessive waiting time. When clicked immediately appear.

7 inch screen that is used is also not entirely used to display images. Because it can be inserted in such a tab that can be seen the user to find the file in another folder. To exit this application, staying just brush your finger from bottom to top.

Then switch to view the video. Flash-based applications and HTML 5 to be displayed seamlessly on the Playbook. If you do not want to immediately shut down, just move it into other applications.

Yes, this is great Playbook. This device has a powerful multitasking capabilities have been buried because of the dual-core processor 1 GB. Memory comes with 1 GB of RAM and OS QNX.
Some applications can run simultaneously without having to be closed. So on the front page Playbook, then will appear a small windows like in Windows 7 from running applications.

And this was already proven itself detikINET, various applications running in the background do not affect performance significantly Playbook.


 Dual HD Camera

Features take and record pictures on Playbook also has an important role. That is already buried two cameras, front and rear 3-megapixel 5 megapixels as the primary.

When tested detikINET in the room that was not too bright, the ability of two cameras in the Playbook was not too disappointing, quite clean.

Tests subsequent to the speaker who is on the right and left of the screen. detikINET just reminded of this because the tablet PC product then do not expect too high to the speakers who presented, including the Playbook. For ordinary impressed.

Especially in the Playbook, graphic quality plays an important role. It can be seen when running videos and games available. For example, when playing games Quick III, the ability of technology so OpenGL seem to be more turn on the display.

While the media can play in the Playbook including video up to 1080p High Definition resolution. The format includes H.264, MPEG, DivX and WMV.


Browsing

Playbook for today is better positioned as a mobile internet device. Not able to call, because it has not been equipped with Sim Card slot, Wi-Fi access only.

So Playbook browsing capabilities must be optimized RIM. Well, one of which is capable of displaying the entire contents of the site. That is, what is shown is not the view for a mobile version, but the exact same version on the computer desktop.

So users do not worry when surfing on this mini device. Because what would they receive the same as when surfing fun on your desktop or notebook computer.

Just a note, Playbook brings a different OS with BlackBerry handsets. Because Playbook already using BlackBerry operating system based on the Tablet OS micro-kernel architecture of QNX Neutrino. Neutrinos have been widely used in medical devices, automotive to the Internet router.
