Review Specifications Compare Prices

Review Date: 3rd Dec' 07

The LifeBook N6460 is Fujitsu's new top of the line notebook primarily designed for multimedia applications. Even the most basic version of the N6460 will set you back about 1,500 dollars. Fujitsu packs a ton of features into its machine, such as a powerful 2.2GHz Core 2 Duo processor and impressive graphics card. Given the amount of features it has, the LifeBook N6460 can serve well as a desktop PC replacement, albeit in a much more portable package.

The LifeBook N6460 features a sturdy, fairly large grey case. Its size is not surprising considering the amount of hardware inside of it. On the case's exterior are a ton of hook ups for every type of peripheral imaginable. It has five USB 2.0 ports, IEEE 1394, a memory card reader that accepts Memory Stick, SD, and xD, a PC Card slot, and an ExpressCard slot. The N6460 also features a Firewire port, RCA audio in, composite, S-Video in and out, VGA and HDMI ports, that come in handy for a variety of video functions. It is also the first LifeBook to come with a Blu-ray disc drive. Blu-ray discs are capable of storing five times as much information as a regular DVD, so this feature is quite attractive.

The LifeBook N6460's screen is widescreen, sized at 17 inches with a resolution of 1440x900 pixels. The keyboard is full size with a separate numerical pad similar to those usually reserved for desktop keyboards. The N6460's keyboard also features a dedicated four way media button that can be customized to open any number of programs. Another fancy keyboard feature is the Visual Optimizer button. This allows the computer to switch from PC mode to video mode in order to provide the best visual settings for both regular PC applications and video use.

Fujitsu's LifeBook N6460 uses an Intel PM965 chipset along with a Core 2 Duo processor. It includes an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 video card that provides DirectX 10 compatibility. The LifeBook N6460 is available with up to 500 gigabytes worth of storage that is provided by two separate hard drives.

The Fujitsu LifeBook N6460 provides tons of features and powerful hardware that rival those of most desktop PCs. This makes it perfect for multimedia use such as video editing. Its price is its biggest problem, $2749 for Blu-ray drive, considering there are other comparable notebooks that are being offered with a smaller price tag. Dell's XPS M1730 for example packs in more features such as dual graphics cards, bluetooth, webcam, higher screen resolution etc for similar price.
