At MSI Wind U135 enough unpretentious design with a simple but pleasant, contrasting colors. The display is finished using the technology of Color Film Print (film coated with a color pattern), which is very similar to the Imprint finish on laptops HP. This film has a better stability, compared to conventional painted surfaces, while allowing make to the design of notebook additional design notes. MSI U135 used for simple wavy texture, which blends well with the features of a laptop. This teksturatakzhe repeated on the surface of the touchpad inside netbook. Many other surfaces inside and silver, but here the manufacturer switched otvolnistoy film texture to dyed corrugated plastic, frosted look, but pleasantly smooth to the touch, like a glossy surface. The glossy black frame of the screen and keyboard backing, look great with silver-colored surfaces and combine the desire of the manufacturer to give netbook polish glossy surfaces with the departure from the use of gloss on the most local brands, such as stops for the wrists.

Build quality average netbook, similar to most other netbooks. Separately, it should be noted strong cover the screen, which is well protected in its closed position. Glossy finish cover resists scratches, to a certain extent. The average user who is accustomed to wear a netbook along with other things in a bag or backpack, in between gatherings, or moves, this coverage will ensure the good condition laptop for quite some time.

Wind U135 features a glossy 10-inch screen with LED backlight, which is relatively worse than in most other netbooks with a similar screen size. On our test model with a maximum brightness noticeably thrust itself out on the edges of the screen on all sides. This was especially noticeable when downloading netbook, when the operating system screen saver appears on the all-black screen. Also, this effect is and when watching movies in a dark room. Colors and contrast of the screen were comparable to other netbooks due to its glossy surface. If the lights would not be so noticeable, it went very well this notebook would be for watching movies while traveling. With a maximum brightness of the image on the screen is easily readable in a bright office and even outside, if you stand in the place where it will not appear reflections from the sun.

The surface of the touchpad seemed to us very good, better than normally encountered, with a matte finish, which was easy to slide a finger. Do not even compare with a glossy coating, which are often found on the latest laptops! Keys touchpad though united in a single swinging block, but it is flexible enough to be able to press both keys touchpad simultaneously with minimal effort.

A set of ports on the MSI Wind U135 usual and compare with other competitors. Offered three ports USB, audio ports, VGA output, network port and SDHC compatible card reader. Netbook is also equipped with a security lock slot Kensington

Right: One port USB, card reader SDHC, audio jacks, output VGA, LAN port

Relatively good performance of the system for daily activities for netbooks, but certainly not comparable to the new ultraportable notebooks processors CULV. Although the lack of the latter, in turn, is less battery life, compared to netbooks. We did not raise any problems with performance under hikes in the network, comes on site with a flash-content, including YouTube. Of course, HD videos are still hard nut to crack for netbooks, but the commercials SD scrolled without stammering. The system also normally played all the videos from the hard drive HD 720p resolution and lower, choking only movies 1080p Full HD. Loading, shutting down the system and input-output from hibernation made quickly. When using the netbook is quite possible to slam the door before leaving the screen, without shutting down the netbook, and translated it into hibernation, throw it in the bag and, if necessary, to quickly obtain and include it in the road. Compared to most netbooks, in our opinion, much of the increase in performance still provided a new operating system Windows 7, not faster platform Pine Trail.

The comparison test CPU wPrime: (smaller values correspond to better performance):

MSI Wind U135 good fights with heat, but it happens due to constantly running cooling fan. Even in the absence of load U135 fan rotates, albeit on a small constant speed. Leaving the air at the netbook almost room temperature, and we did not understand, why do not switch off the fan during the idle times within a netbook is not heated, at least in order to increase the lifetime and efficiency of the fan. Users with sensitive ears, hear the sound of the fan in a quiet room, just finding themselves far from the netbook. The noise is comparable to a whisper.
