From the survey results, for the notebook material, users was undoubtedly higher hardness favorite, lighter weight metal and carbon fiber material, the design of those headaches are concentrated in the interface type of layout, the keyboard layout handle, heat three aspects. I happen to be an Apple notebook users, the three design controversy, in Apple’s machines can be seen.

 

Design of a dispute: the interface layout too close

 

Have you encountered such a problem: the need to also insert two U disk or two USB devices, but the two USB interfaces are too crowded and “Crash”?

U disk versatility and ease of use is no doubt that in recent years, U disk tends to a wide variety of designs, rectangular shape, a different type of cartoon style and so on. I have two hands U disk, not a cartoon, while inserted in a notebook, it is difficult.

 

Some might say: U disk does not change small enough. Indeed, such a layout for an interface such as “Awesome” category of the U disk, it is very suitable. However, for laptop manufacturers, you can not be increased USB spacing, so that we do not replace the U offer? The same problem, in the overlay of the USB interface also exists.

 

Solution: reasonable arrangement USB devices use location in a notebook;Using the USB extension cable or USB Hub ;Do not use wide, thick disk U

 

 

Design II controversy: Ctrl and Fn who who left the right

 

Most laptops are used in the left Ctrl, Fn in the right design. Minority ThinkPad and Apple are the two main brands, but its products are used in this design, can be considered a user habits persist, the new user has just started when the need to adapt some time. However, some products in these two key layout Comparative Study and Integration, is not need to explain?

 

The solution: a unified keyboard layout recommended vendors;Have done for two weeks to adapt keyboard layout;External keyboard

 

 

Three controversial design: rear vents poor results

 

Notebook cooling has been the most problem plagued consumers, but also the various notebook manufacturers face the most headaches. Heat directly affects the life of the machine, the machine has a direct impact on stability in life.

Currently, the vast majority of laptop cooling holes will be placed under the fuselage and the left side, in line with right-handed user’s habits. However, there are some products (especially thin and light models) of cooling holes hidden in the shaft inside the machine so that open and close with changes in the angle cooling holes covering the situation along with the change. This design, what is necessary, or not?

 

Solution: It is recommended vendors continue to increase thermal research and development efforts;Increase the heat dissipation base, enhance air flow below the machine ;Try to avoid prolonged high-load operation the machine
