Someone asked to compare all the available ultra-portables in the market, especially the ones in the 7″ display. So we rounded-up four UMPCs — Asus Eee PC, Neo Explore X1, Astone UMPC and Deep Blue H1. See comparison chart after the jump.
The results of the comparison chart are pretty interesting. If you don’t place these cheap laptops side by side, you’ll never notice which model tops the scale.

Despite the unfamiliar processor in Via, the Deep Blue H1 and Astone UMPC gets you the best bang for your buck. The extra weight is obviously because of the heavier but bigger storage space on the HDD.
Hope the chart above will help you decide on your next laptop purchase.


Asus Eee PCs aren’t UMPC, they are actually MIDs(Mobile Internet Device). Because of it’s storage capacity, it will be limited to a few small apps(programs), although it has as desktop like processor, yet it’s ram limits it maximum capabilities. Originally, Asus Eee PCs comes pre-installed with linux based OS(operating system) for reasons of having small footprint on it’s storage medium. Yet still, there’s packages with windows xp pre-installed, it almost fills up the whole SSD hard drive, leaving almost no space for full office applications. But using portable apps on external devices can be our work-arounds.
