Expert review by : David Ramli (goodgearguide.com.au)

BenQ Joybook R45 (PV-04)

 

An inexpensive laptop with thief-catching ability!

Attractive design, good usability, HDMI port, Gigabit Ethernet, price

Palm rests heat up quickly and don’t feel solid, screen has small viewing angle, poor speakers

The BenQ Joybook R45 balances attractive design and lots of features against weak speakers and palm rests with heat issues. What tips the scales in favour of this notebook is its low price.

BenQ Joybook R45

 

The R45 is the solitary offering from BenQ that is not very well-designed and suffers from performance and pricing issues.

BenQ Joybook R45

 

BenQ's Joybook R45 is a good laptop at a great price — and will be even better once you get an extra gigabyte of RAM in there.

Affordable. Well built.

Wrist rest gets warm after a short period of use. Singular mouse button hard to click. Air vent on left-hand side.

BenQ Joybook R45

 

BenQ entices the fashion conscious consumer with its new R45.

Stylish looks, 14.1-inch screen, Leather bound lid, Sturdy build

Average battery life, Only 1GB RAM, A bit pricey
