Notebook reviews the Fujitsu LifeBook S2210 and writes;

“The Fujitsu LifeBook S2210 is a decent notebook with good looks, the 13.3″ screen size is really quite a sweet spot between being an ultraportable and larger 14″ thin-and-light notebook. It’s easy to carry around, yet not so small that the screen is tough for viewing. Speaking of viewing, the screen is absolutely fantastic. The professional styling and cool looking media buttons would suit a practical but style conscious business person. The downsides to the notebook are the middling battery life, it runs a bit warm, and the keyboard could be improved. On the whole though there’s not much to complain about. The starting price of the S2210 is around $1,299 and the price as tested is $1,979. Personally I think the price is a bit high for what you get relative to other notebooks out there, but as always you can shop around to find better prices, so do your homework there.”

CNET reviews the Fujitsu LifeBook S2210 (rating: 6.9/10) and writes;

“A thin-and-light laptop, designed for frequent travel, requires excellent battery life. The LifeBook S2210 ran for 1 hour and 36 minutes on our DVD battery drain test, using the included 6-cell battery. This score was disappointing, especially since the similar Toshiba Satellite U205 ran for 2 hours and 19 minutes. Our DVD battery drain test is tough on batteries, and you can expect more work time if you’re Web surfing or using productivity apps. The bottom line: Fujitsu’s business-oriented thin-and-light LifeBook S2210 offers plenty of features and strong performance, but its standard-aspect display isn’t for everyone. Worse, its battery life fell below our expectations.”
