Why not try a Panasonic laptop?

Panasonic notebooks are a strange entity in the computer market.
It’s niche . It’s so small that when I mention it, many friends around me look at me in surprise: “What? Panasonic also sells notebooks?”. After all, we have never seen a physical Panasonic notebook store in China, and we have never seen Panasonic invest in notebook advertising.
But niche does not mean unknown. It accounts for a very small market share in China, but it is the real mainstream in neon country. Most people first encountered a Panasonic notebook Batterywith a Japanese colleague. Panasonic notebooks are protected by the local government, similar to our state-owned enterprises. The target market is the centralized procurement of local government agencies and large enterprises. Its outstanding security and high-end positioning mean that even if it does not dominate the retail field, it is as profitable as many big computers brands.


Where there is centralized procurement, there is centralized scrapping. The main source of second-hand Panasonic notebooks circulating in the country is merchants purchasing scrapped computers from Japanese companies in large quantities, commonly known as electronic waste. These computers are often only used for three to five years, and some are even out of warranty. Coupled with the durable military quality of Panasonic computers, their service life far exceeds expectations and they are very cost-effective.

It has a long history . Most people believe that the originator of notebooks is Toshiba’s T1000, which was born in 1982. Few people know that only 3 years later, Panasonic also launched its own notebook computer M353FD, which weighed 15 pounds. And to this day, this brand of notebooks is still alive and well.
Why not try a Panasonic laptop?


Panasonic notebooks have two main series models, the Toughbook series of rugged machines and the Let’s note series of military-grade rugged models.
Rugged machines require waterproofing, dustproofing, and shockproofing, and are commonly used for maintenance and testing in harsh environments. The Let’s note series are all very easy-to-use business notebooks. Their lightness, durability, and many interfaces are their main selling points .
It’s expensive . Since its birth, basically every notebook has sold for more than 10,000 RMB. Not to mention the era when laptops were still valuable assets, the same is true now after laptops became popular.

Rugged laptops priced at RMB 20,000 to RMB 30,000 are very common, and ordinary business laptops are basically around 1w5, which is almost three times the price of a notebook with the same configuration. Not cost effective. Behind the price is Panasonic’s various ingenious and thoughtful designs, such as long battery life, rich interfaces, smaller size, lighter weight, and durability.

It’s quite pure in designThe first is its appearance. I have never seen that brand change its in more than ten years. The Panasonic  Laptop Battery you can see now all have basically the same face, and they really have the same straight-faced style of doing things as Neon Country . The main purpose of the design of this kind of shell is to strengthen and resist earthquakes. I have to say that only Neon people have this thought.

The colors have always been only silver and black, and only recently have some commemorative notebooks been released. But after watching it for a long time, it seems quite attractive. I feel like Uncle Ge. I don’t think he is handsome, but I miss him a bit after not seeing him for a long time.


The second is that it is lightweight. The lightest one currently is the 10-inch RZ4, which weighs only 745g, almost as much as a bottle of Coke. With the same size, it is only as heavy as a lightweight laptop; with the same weight, its performance is superior; with the same performance, its screen is one inch larger,
Panasonic uses many of its own unique mold designs. For example, the clamshell optical drive makes the entire notebook smaller and lighter, which is beyond the reach of many portable notebooks. For example, its notebooks all have VGA output ports, which solves the pain points of many business people.

Then there is the battery life . Panasonic notebooks basically have a  Panasonic notebooksdual-battery design. Dual-battery means that in addition to an external battery, there is also a built-in battery that supports hot-swappable batteries and can be replaced at any time . The official battery life is more than 10 hours.Built-in lithium battery


Finally, it is military and durable . The most attractive thing about Panasonic is its military quality. Thanks to the aluminum-magnesium alloy shell design, the A and D sides of the shell that look like plastic are actually metal, light and strong. All notebooks in  the business Lets note series can withstand a 76cm (desktop height) drop test. This is the reason why I decided to buy it. No one wants a productivity tool to suddenly die that day.

Not to mention the military industry. Waterproof, dustproof and shockproof, it is widely used in various dark environments.
Shopping adviceThe features of Panasonic were mentioned above. Shopping is a matter of opinion, and it’s up to the person to be thrifty. If you don’t care about budget, just buy the latest model.
For example, sz6, 12-inch screen, i5-7300U, 8g memory . It weighs less than two bottles of water and has a Panasonic  batterylife of 14 hours. The advantages of domestic buying products are warranty and English keyboard
