LG has announced its X130 netbook which was last seen paying visit to the FCC officials. The new netbook has got a textured display lid, three different colors to choose from, chrome plated hinge giving an impression of a seamless hinge and a widened Shift key.
On the specifications front, the netbook is not different from its predecessors as it still houses a 10.1-inch display with WSVGA resolution (1024×600), 1.6GHz Atom processor, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, Wi-Fi 802.11n, Ethernet, Bluetooth 2, Windows XP Home, Smart-On Instant OS and 9-cell battery which gives around 12 hours of runtime.
It will be sold in South Korea for 789,000 Won ($638) and will be introduced soon in 30 other countries.
I purchased LG X130 Note BOOk from MAF hypermarkerts, QATAR WLL Villaggio Branch ( CARREFOUR) VIDE tranction No 27902101155178 dated 01 Dec 2009. I was told that the stand by time of its 9 cell battery will be 12 hours. this factor lured me to buy this laptop. now when i started using it with full battery charging I found its battery stand by time is only 6 hrs only and not 12 hours as had been quoted bt the seller as well the specifications posted in ur web site above. let it be clarified to the customers/users. this misleading quoting. hope to hear back immediately as i have to carry this laptop to india where i am likely to go next month or so’
let some one please confirm as to wether the present 6 cell battery can be interchanged with 9 cell battery pack in the same removable slot. if so then at what cost and souce of availabilty.thanks i approached LG CUSTOMER CARE BUT OF OF NO USE THEY TOLD ME THAT MY COMPLAINT HAS BEEN FORWARDED TO HOGHER MANAGEMENT AND I WILL HEAR FROM THEM SHORTY BUT IT IS MORE THAN A MONTH NO ONE BOTHERED.

February 11th, 2010 02:27 3 With reference to my comments submitted dated 20 Dec 2009 as well as on 29 jan 2010. I will not hesitate in paying my thanks to the Manager LG Service Centre Doha Qatar as well as Mr kanahiya the executive who have ultimately solved my problem and have repalced the six cell battery of my x130 LG note book with 9 cell Battery pack on 6 feb 2010 which is giving me now more than 10-11 hours operating time. i will fail in my duties if i donot thank and make a mention of Mr Nizam from the customer care deptt as well as mr prasad marketing/sales manager who put efforts to redress my genuine grievance. may be many other officials concerned with this. In fact every one was very cordial and polite in dealing so far my experience in Qatar is concerned. I SHALL CARRYING THIS NOTE BOOK TO INDIA UNDER ONE YEAR INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY PERIOD NEXT MONTH. I EXPECT THE SAME ATTITUDE OF AFTER SALES SERVICE BY LG SERVICE CENTRE THERE TOO. thIS X130 lg NOTE bOOK IS REALLY VERY HANDY LIGHT WEIGHT AND RELAIBE. ONCE GAIN THANKS TO ALL CONCERNED
