Europeans less interested about ultrabooks

Ultrabooks aren’t supercomputers which come in a package as well natural meats say is revolutionary. Nobody is reinventing the wheel, just refreshing and pushing traditional laptops to another level. It’s been plenty of buzz around the appliance called ultrabooks over the past several months, especially this holiday season at CES 2012.

Which has a re-branded design, ultra thin and portable, these Windows versions of MacBook Air machines apparently obtain a considerable attention from consumers. They have a smaller display as compared to classic notebooks, boot and resume from sleep late a short time, use solidness drives, run Intel’s second generation of processors, have a very good battery and also an affordable tag.

Once we have experienced, the “low cost” term is relative, since few ultrabooks have managed to cost under $1,000 cost range so buyers can consider purchasing them. However, with Intel ready to announce the Ivy Bridge platform, we may see the washing machine dropping their price until March April around 20-30%.

What’s interesting is the fact – in accordance with Taiwan makers – Europeans don’t show fascination with this new group of machines and the absence of enthusiasm may be reflected in Intel’s future market share forecasts. ultrabooks are less desirable in Europe, because consumers still prefer 15-inch or even more laptops, in favour or 14-inch or 13.3-inch models.

Of total notebooks you can purchase, aproximatively 50% turn out 15-inch models; traditional laptops with only 35-40% like the 14-inch models. HP is the only PC maker that announced a 14-inch ultrabooks – HP Envy 14 Spectre – that is expensive. Obvious why Acer is preparing its 14- and 15-inch Aspire Timeline Ultra machines having a slim design. Apple is also about to launch skinny 15-inch models.

Up to now, ultrabooks have been tested out there to see consumers’ reaction and feedback, but everything seem to show one particular cause to bring higher sales: a cheaper price . Tag
