The Amilo 3000 series is designed with a new "Core & Shell" look. This essentially means black and white. More than 50 other FSC products will also come with this new design among which will be USB sticks, Servers and Desktop pc´s. FSC feels very confident about their new design and trend.

Up till now Fujitsu Seimens have had fairly boring lines but the new Core and Shell design is breaking that mould. The black and white look is pretty daring but looks great.


The more dominant of the two colours is white, with black being used as a secondary colour. The white can be found swathing across the palm rest area, working area and the lid. The contrast between the two colours is quite fantastic and really is a refreshing change to a lot of the generic looks that are on the market today.

We were delighted to receive the new design line in the Editorial Office. The small design subtelties such as the cropped left arrow key is a quirky touch.

This device has very strong corners and edges providing a very robust structure. In contrast to many other designs from other manufacturers, FSC have opted against a high gloss surface. This is great as finferprints are nowhere to be seen.


The chassis and palm rest area are very robust as are the hinges. The screen can be moved smoothly and easily and is held firmly in whichever position you place it.

Unfortunately the same cannot be said for the keyboard. There is a lot of bounce here. For this reason we will only offer low points for this area.

The touchpad is very smooth and you can run your finger across it with no problems. The downside here though is that the cursor does not move across the entire screen without repeated finger movements. The touchpad buttons feel nice to the touch but make an annoying clicking sound. If you were using them a lot it is my guess that they would definitely start to irritate you or whoever else is within earshot.

Aktuelle Note: ausreichend  Erklärung

Was ist eine Aktuelle Note?
Notebookjournal errechnet jede Nacht eine Aktuelle Note. Das ist die Note nach den derzeit gültigen Maßstäben. Sie zeigt an, ob sich ein älteres Modell noch wacker hält oder ob es bereits eine Vielzahl besserer Notebooks gibt. Letzteres ist der Fall, wenn die Aktuelle Note niedriger als die ursprüngliche Note ist.

Es geht um die Vergleichbarkeit
Mit der technischen Weiterentwicklung müssen sich Notebooks an immer höheren Maßstäben messen. Erreichten Gaming 17-Zöller Ende 2006 höchstens 5500-3DMarks06, so waren es Ende 2007 schon 9200! Ein sechs Monate altes Sehr-Gut kann also nicht mit einem Sehr-Gut von vor einer Woche verglichen werden.

Aus Gründen der Vergleichbarkeit haben wir uns auch im Vergleich (Link) für die Nutzung der aktuellen Note entschieden.
