Developed under its 'Design for India' programme, the HCL Leaptop Series 39 meets the Energy Star 4.0 compliance standard. The HCL Leaptop Series 39 is based on Intel’s Centrino and Centrino2 Processor technology and comes in both Microsoft and Linux versions.
The HCL Leaptop 39 Series comes with a 14.1-inch wide screen and is powered by Intel’s Centrino and Centrino2 processor technology and has a battery backup of more than four hours. It consumes less than 1.7W of energy in sleep mode and below 1W in stand-by mode and is optimised to reduce its power consumption.
On this occasion, HCL also showcased its range of Leaptops, the Z35 series, the series 28 and 24 and its latest 'MTV Edition'. Also showcased was the 'HCL MiLeap series' and a range of HCL accessories including the 'Dictamail' and the 'FM Companion'.
While speaking at the launch, George Paul, executive vice president, HCL Infosystems, said, “We are committed to bring cutting-edge technology products designed for Indian conditions and have brought in a range of new categories that have transformed the computing industry in India. The launch of HCL Leaptop Series 39 is yet another step towards the ‘Design for India’ products strategy.”
Addressing the launch, Rajendra Kumar, executive vice president, HCL Infosystems, said, “With the trend of computing devices moving towards notebooks, we realised that there is a need for notebooks that are designed to meet the varied requirements and mode of usage of the Indian market. Amongst the various factors, one of the key parameters in the Indian context is the thermals and the temperature difference between the left and right palm rest surfaces of your notebook.”
“With re-engineering of the key components of a computing device into the much smaller form factor of today’s modern day notebooks, leads to concentration of heat generation. Therefore, at our HCL Labs and the HCL product engineering centre, we are focussed at designing a product with lower temperature difference across the surface of the laptop. Today it gives us immense pleasure to announce the launch of the Leaptop 39 Series that have thermals that are within 6 degree centigrade and can proudly attribute it as a product that is distinctly Indian,” added Rajendra Kumar.
Starting at a price range of Rs 39,900 for the Centrino Model and Rs 42,990 for the Centrino2 range, the new HCL Series 39 range of Leaptops will be available nationwide at all HCL DigiLife stores, Large Format Retail and other HCL retail outlets. |
