I probably won't bother, as my blogs aren't image-intensive. But I can see that this will be a big thing for some people.

Volkswagen Amarok Cabine Simples

É inegável que as picapes médias vêm ganhando um papel muito diferente nos dias de hoje. Se antes atraíam pela robustez e vocação de trabalho, agora estão cada vez mais urbanas e estilosas mas sem deixar de lado o atrativo da imponência trazida pela altura e porte maiores. Mas existem projetos que ainda tentam resgatar o espírito trabalhador deste segmento, nem que seja para aumentar as vendas ao incluir frotistas. É o caso da Amarok, que ganhou cabine simples na Europa há poucos dias, mas já a estende ao Brasil.

A VW bem que tentou preservar o máximo que pôde do estilo carismático da versão de cabine dupla, mas também é fácil de perceber a vocação menos pomposa da nova variação. Também pelo parachoque traseiro ou pelas capas de retrovisores pretas, mas ela bem que poderia ter mantido a qualidade de projeto na adaptação da cabine. Vista de lado aparece uma coluna muito espessa e vazia, decorrente do uso das portas do modelo original, e que acabam por pesar no desenho. Bem que os alemães poderiam aprender com a VW brasileira: a Saveiro “bolinha” aproveitava as portas mas usava uma janelinha para disfarçar, enquanto a geração atual ganhou até portas exclusivas.

Mas deixando isso de lado se consegue ver que a Amarok cabine simples procura é se preocupar com o aspecto para o qual veio. Sua caçamba passou a ter ótimos 2,20 metros de comprimento, e ajudada por caixas de roda estreitas, ela ganha uma área útil de 3,57 m². Ela vem em duas versões sempre com o moderno motor 2.0 turbodiesel de 122 cv e torque de 34,7 kgfm, aliado ao câmbio manual de seis marchas, mas pode oferecer tração 4x2 (R$ 78.990) ou 4x4 (R$ 85.900), o que lhe leva a ter capacidade de carga de 1232 kg e 1142 kg, respectivamente.

Trazer a Amarok básica com parachoques na cor do veículo já na versão simples acabou por deixar a versão básica da com cabine dupla ainda mais sem sentido, com aqueles horrorosos parachoques de plástico preto. A versão básica já traz ar-condicionado, direção hidráulica e sistema de som multimídia, além de agradar na segurança com controles de tração e travamento de diferencial, e freios com BAS, EBD e ABS, este com função para otimizar a frenagem em terrenos de aderência reduzida. A versão com tração integral oferece opção de reduzida e pode vir com rodas de liga leve aro 16”.

Samsung Q330 Suri Review, Specs and Price

Samsung Q330 Suri

Waaw..Samsung one of popular manufacturer of laptop has announced another Samsung series laptop model named Samsung Q330 Suri. The Samsung Q330 Suri proved to be a simply designed office subnotebook with (limited) mobility advantages in our test. The battery life of four hours, the keyboard's good feedback, the silent operation and the seldomly achieved brightness (281 cd/m2) are decisive advantages.

Unfortunately, the manufacturer ruins this bonus with a hardly glare type display hardly suitable for use in sunlight. The mini entry-level GPU, Nvidia Geforce 310M (512 MB) can be disabled via Nvidia's Optimus. The graphics isn't supposed to be a purchasing factor though. Current games will have a hard time (see gaming tests on the Geforce 310M's data sheet). In the end, its slim silhouette and the brushed aluminum looks could be purchasing arguments. The workmanship doesn't surpass the average in view of the selectively yielding case and the not completely tightly mounted hinges. You can get the Samsung Q330 Suri 999 Euro. For more details, Please see the full specifications of the Samsung Q330 Suri below :

HP 620 Notebook

HP one of popular manufacturer of laptop has announced another HP series laptop model named HP 620 Notebook. This Laptop is having a 15.6 incher with basic office equipment in its program for a while. A matt TFT, a high-end and stable case, a good keyboard layout and low emissions speak for a pleasant office use. The battery life of almost four hours doesn't have to hide from the Core i3 office rivals. Contrarily, many Core i3 systems only reach three hours. The matt and acceptably bright TFT is inviting for a stay on the terrace next summer.

Besides that, the HP 620 Notebook has already had a Pentium Dual-Core T4500 (2x2.30 GHz) no longer plays in the first office league, but at any rate in the third. We only find insignificant differences in computing performance, and hardly any in system performance, in comparison to the Athlon II P320 (2x2.10 GHz). If you want to save a bit of money, you'll not make a wrong decision with the HP 625 (Athlon II P320). Merely the AMD system's battery life is about an hour shorter.

Dodge Journey 2012

Não é todo dia que se vê um modelo mudar a imagem de forma tão abrupta como o Journey. Sua primeira aparição aqui foi com o modelo antigo e em várias versões porque ele tinha que agradar a gostos e bolsos variados. Mas depois veio a compra da Chrysler pela Fiat, e a troca de projetos. O irmão Freemont acabou fazendo sucesso aqui e na Europa porque usa o preço mais baixo como atrativo, então o Dodge teve que se reinventar com um face-lift e ganhando mais requinte para fazer a oferta do grupo nos degraus superiores.

O face-lift que ele ganhou não fez nenhuma revolução no visual. Pelo contrário, foram alterações pontuais que atualizaram um estilo ainda bem moderno e interessante. Na frente temos parachoque novo e a grade típica da marca, sem os detalhes que simulam alongar os faróis como no Fiat. Mas a traseira recebeu as lanternas em LEDs e dupla ponteira de escapamento estreadas naquele, e as laterais ostentam rodas novas. Entretanto, talvez sejam as cores as maiores responsáveis pela diferenciação entre os modelos, porque só o Journey oferece azul e o vermelho das fotos, por exemplo.

Já o interior se beneficiou ao adotar o novo painel, muito mais moderno e com materiais de melhor qualidade, além de uma vistosa touchscreen de 8”. Sua lista de equipamentos traz seis airbags, terceira fileira de bancos para completar sete lugares, controles de tração e estabilidade e sistema de som multimídia. Outra novidade muito interessante é a adoção do motor 3.6 V6 Pentastar, comandado por um câmbio automático sequencial de seis marchas. Esse conjunto gera ótimos 280 cv que lhe garantem 0 a 100 km/h em 8s e máxima de 208 km/h, segundo a fábrica. A versão básica se chama SXT e parte de R$ 91.500, enquanto a de topo é R/T e começa em R$ 107.900.

Asus G53SX Review, Specs and Price

Asus G53SX

In August, we tested the Asus G53SX. He fell almost five stars, mainly due to the lack of a Blu-ray and a Full HD panel. Since then, a new model Asus G53SX-S1158V, was released by adding these two components. Asus G53SX proves that you don't need to spend a ton of money to get a decent gaming machine--if you don't mind toting around an 8-pound monster.

Our review model, priced at $1250 (as of November 9, 2011), came packed with a second-gen Intel Core i7-2630QM processor, 12GB of RAM (upgradable to 16GB), a 750GB hard drive, and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 560M graphics card with 2GB of video memory. This hulking machine also features built-in Wi-Fi, built-in Bluetooth, a full-HD (1920-by-1080-pixel) display, and the 64-bit version of Windows 7 Home Premium.
