SlimEdge Design, Fujitsu’s Innovative Notebook Display Goes Public

From now on, notebook consumers will not have to choose a single option between screen size and portability, they can merrily go for both when they buy LifeBook S6510.

The efforts of Fujitsu’s research department have given birth to a notebook model that easily stands out from the crowd owing to Fujitsu’s SlimEdge design.

The SlimEdge Desgin features Fujitsu’s exclusive skill in expanding the screen real estate of an otherwise 13.3” display notebook into a 14.1” one. That’s right, LifeBook S6510 accommodates a 303.4 x 189.6mm active display (equivalent to 14.1” screens) within the boundaries of its 316 x 235 mm outer walls (equivalent to that of 13.3” screens).

The 12.5% expansion in notebook’s display size is made possible by cutting down most of the screen’s conventional sidewalls, precisely from 12.65mm to 5.6mm. The benefits that this modest albeit challenging trick has brought for customers are fantastic. Thanks to the SlimEdge design, one can now sit back in a more relaxed way while still enjoying the advantages that come with light and portable 13.3” portable notebook. Furthermore, the screen now features a 16:10 aspect ratio, which gives enough room for users to open two horizontal windows simultaneously.

Overall, the SlimEdge design results in users enjoying more of display size without any corresponding boost in weight.
