Torture Testing Twinhead’s Durabook N15RI Notebook

Thursday, March 23rd, 2006 | Laptop and Notebook Computers, News

Tomshardware takes a Twinhead Durabook N15RI and throws it around and does unspeakable things to see how much it can handle and how well it performs after the throwaround.

It is designed to be able to survive a series of tests that would destroy the average plastic cased laptop, but it doesn’t just perform well in this area but does well in general use too, which is not something to be overlooked.

The case is made of Magnesium alloy, making it extremely strong. The parts inside are surrounded by rubber padding to keep them from being damaged if dropped or moved around. The case itself does not clip closed so as to allow more flex for when you drop it or it gets bashed around.

Everything on the keyboard side of the notebook is fully sealed, protecting against spills and damage from water.

The tests included multiple drops, a large drop, water being poured over it and a whole lot of shaking for an hour.

This laptop passes all the tests with ease and as well as being rugged it has good looks and decent performance going for it. Not much else to ask for in a computer really, is there?
