We been patronizing Xitrix computer (Taiwan based locally assembled) we have almost 150 units at the moment in our IT system. We are a HP country for long years when time came for upgrade season we due to budget constrain we consider clone and semi branded desktops but prior procuring said units we been undergo stress testing HP, Dell, and Lenovo they are all nothing to beat Xitrix considering they are pure Intel OEM..Branded pc’s hung’s up or keep on rebooting while Xitrix under test you can even move your mouse pointers. Units cost are worth compare to branded at almost 50%..

I don’t have experience on their netbooks. It is a china made..

Xitrix TravelPro M10 Netbook – should have been good enough if the processor is not Atom N270 1.6GHz, must be like core 2quad to match the 320 gig hard disk, and other specs that made to attract users,if the processor can be upgraded, PWEDE NA, sayang d pwede

I’ve encountered this brand before (back when I was working for the government). At that time, I was also surprised about the company so I did some background research (they eventually won our bidding for equipment) and their customers then, were mostly large corporations and government agencies.

Very competitive in terms price/featuress.

They had excellent customer service and technical support. I wish that is still true today.

True may ganong thinking na “Ay Local yan.. Walang kwenta..” which is you know, saddening. But what is more saddening is the fact that those local manufacturers insist on developing mediocre products despite of the popular notion ng “local”. I hate the thing that happened with Neo.

a unit with a 3g modem costs around 26k. Talo tayo sa processor but with the other specs? good na, considering it’s their first notebook.

Hi guys,

Talked to the sales rep of Xitrix that day and she told me they’ve been doing business providing PC products to big corporations like Air Philippines, Ayala, DOE, DTI and Toyota, among others.

It’s only recently that they are entering the consumer market. I guess as a business, they are already tested. Just that they are not familiar among regular consumers.

It’s true that people are wary of new brands, and these have to prove themselves first. But perhaps it may be true also that most are wary of this because it is a “local” brand, and something must be wrong with that line of thought.

However, a review would be a great help.IMO.

Don’t make negative assumptions too much, it’s true that people will wait for some review or further information regarding a new brand, nobody wants to be on the losing side right?

Let’s wait for sir yuga’s review on this one. cheers.

@Josh, of course, simply because the brands you mentioned are already tried and tested.

You know, if you get the exact same netbook, and slap a name-brand on it, like HP, or Acer, people would not be hesitant to purchase it or would not need to wait for reviews first.

Hopefully, more goodies will come out from this company and that their machines would be at par with the more well-known brands.

Hm…looks interesting with the 4,000 peso discount. Without it though, it might be too much for its brand name.

Really wish they beefed up the GPU. The starter edition is really fine if you plan on achieving a longer battery life. Hope their next setup would replace that Intel GMA 950 with a 4500HD or an Ion.

IIRC Xitrix was one of MS partners during the Windows7 promotion in the philippines.

Have tested a Xitrix netbook while looking for a laptop last week… I must say that it is pretty good for its category except for the graphics chipset. The only thing that my friend was hesitant about buying it was it’s unfamiliar brand name. We were under the impression that the brand name was another computing company from China.

I hope you sir yuga can tell more about the Xitrix company. A little info would be very much appreciated since this unit is pretty much attractive to low end users…
