Zepto is one series of Laptops that always delivers its worth, be it gaming or any general use, I can guarantee you that Zepto laptops will always be up to the mark. although not an international company, it is rising up very quickly, today we are going to Review the new ZEPTO 6625WD Now, every laptophas some good things and some bad things associated with it, unless of course it is manufactured by God Inc. So then we'll now check out the good and bad in this awesome new laptop. The Good: Display: The Display of 6625WD is really top notch quality. Now firstly, this laptop has a nice wide screen. 15.4 Inches all in all. This screen comes with a very nice lighting up to it. As in, when you turn the laptop on, you'll see that this laptop's screen is much brighter than any of its predecessors. Even at high resolutions, the pictures are crystal clear and seldom blurry (as the case with most high end laptops) Awesome Gaming!: After playing a few FPS Games on this machine, we at LaptopAdvisor were convinced of the fact that this machine could really be on of your most favorite gaming partners since its FPS rate is very impressive to say the least. And that is if you're playing the game at full hardware acceleration. It DOES however lag here and there a bit but that shouldn't be a cause of concern as you could rather easily put the acceleration down and get the best performance. Look: 6625WD looks really sleek and smooth. Hmm not exactly sleek maybe due to its traditional rectanglex2 design but still it looks quite alright. The keyboard is innovatively designed as well and it looks good too, no additional comfort for hands, but the design is kind of supportive. No noise: Yep, even at full accelaration this thing makes no distinctive noise, I mean like yeah of course it does make a little bit of noise, which is very natural. But it never crossovers the sound emanating from the speakers. So yeah relatively quiet. Good sound: Nice sound on this laptop. Really good detail into the sounds and plays everything really nice for a laptop computer. Although it still doesn't match up to a common desktop's speakers, but still relatively much better than other laptops. The Bad(s) Overheating: The only real bad thing about this laptop is the fact that it is extremely prone to overheating, if there is even a little clog in the vents and you're running the thing at medium accelaration, it could overheat very quickly. Therefore, one must always keep a watch at the temperature if they have this Laptop
