Sure, its phone lineup has more or less gone the way of the KIRF, but LG’s other endeavors are decidedly more interesting, and this new X13 netbook (more than likely the X130 when it launches) that’s popped up in the FCC is no exception. Compared with the X120, the body here appears to have a slightly wider form factor and the front doesn’t curve quite as dramatically. All the FCC is testing for is Bluetooth and WiFI — sorry 3G hopefuls — but specs-wise, we’d venture a guess and say it’s sporting a 1.6GHz Atom processor, 160GB HDD, 1GB RAM… you know, the same specs found in virtually every other netbook in existence. Hey, maybe we’ll get proven wrong, but with no clue on when LG’s going official with this one, we might be waiting quite some time for verification.

Mention the word ‘netbook’ or ‘ultraportable’, and the first thing that comes to mind would probably be the ASUS Eee PC. The original 7-inch Eee PC when launched, took the computing world by storm. You could even say that it re-defined the meaning of mobile computing. Since then, with netbooks slowly gaining market share (a large portion of it to ASUS and their Eee PC line), other manufacturers have also produced their own netbook models, hoping to get a slice of the lucrative netbook market.

In this review, we’ll be taking a look at LG’s first netbook, the X110. This netbook comes in two hardware flavors - with or without 3.5G HSPA support. (The one with support is also obviously more pricey). The X110 that we have on hand comes with the 3.5G HSPA module built-in. We will try it out, but more on that later. (continue reading…)
