A wide-screen 13.3" display rated at an extra-bright 220 nits
The Joybook T31 uses a 13.3" ultra-bright 220nit LCD with a wide-screen format that's ideal for viewing, enhanced by BenQ's exclusive UltraVivid* glossy screen technology, and embedded with ATI Radeon® Xpress 1150 graphics chip that provides vibrant picture quality and a completely captivating viewing experience.

Audio
Pamper your ears with every note of music
SRS TruSurround XT audio technology

The Joybook T31 integrates cinema-class SRS TruSurround 360 audio enhancement and the TruBass bass booster, so when you listen to music it's like being right there with the performers, every nuance of each notes clearly audible. The Joybook T31 adds SRS Dialog Clarity technology, which makes it easier to hear dialog in movies with a great deal of background noise. And exclusive audio processing software that is included with the Joybook T31 suppresses noise and echo, providing the best-quality audio whether you are participating in a videoconference or recording the back-and-forth in a meeting.

Just the right touch

Full-sized ergonomic keyboard
While adhering to the established ergonomic principles, BenQ designs the keyboard for each Joybook model individually. The Joybook T31 cleverly fits a full-size keyboard into its compact housing, and even increases the spacing between keys to 19.05 mm—greater than that on regular desktop keyboards. Then, to accommodate actual user habits, BenQ adjusted the resistance of the keys for greater comfort when entering text. In addition, the distinctive rounded bottom edge of the keys relieves fatigue during long periods of typing by allowing your fingers to move around the keyboard more smoothly.

Advanced no-gap touchpad
Designed without a ridged edge, the Joybook T31 touchpad eliminates the problem of dust accumulation along the edges, and lets your fingers glide on and off it smoothly in the ultimate comfort.

Significant Quality

Incredible performance from the all-new AMD Turion™ 64X2 Mobile technology
The power of dual-core processors has come to the mobile lifestyle. The BenQ Joybook T31 uses the all-new AMD Turion™ 64-bit dual-core mobile processor, supported by an 800 MHz system bus that eliminates a serious performance bottleneck. AMD's integrated memory controller enables speedier data access, for dramatic speed increases in digital multimedia handling. As a result, whether you're involved in editing/production work, or simply processing large quantities of video data, you can enjoy a more nimble, stable operating environment. Besides, the SATA 5400rpm Hard Disc Drive offers higher transfer rates and better data security.

Stringent testing standards to ensure exceptional quality
The Joybook T31 is built to exacting standards, and is subjected to 25 quality assurance tests, including LCD scratch tests, pressure tests, hinge tests, compatibility tests, high- and low-temperature tests, drop tests, vibration tests, noise damping tests, and EM emission tests. The keyboard must also pass more than 20 separate tests to ensure that it can withstand 8 million-plus keystrokes.

Outstanding thermal system for superior system stability
The sophisticated front-intake ventilation system, modeled on that used in racecars, provides effective cooling of the CPU and other chips that are major heat sources, lowering the overall temperature and ensuring system stability despite the close quarters within the notebook. Additionally, the advanced five-speed cooling fan controller can adjust speeds depending on actual temperatures, not only saving power, but also greatly reducing noise to give you a work environment without distractions.

Optimized port arrangement for convenient use of peripherals
The BenQ Joybook T31 reflects a meticulous attention to user habits, providing a full range of ports, including a generous four USB 2.0 ports, an infrared port, and a 5-in-1 memory card reader (supporting MS/MS-Pro/SD/MMC/xD cards)—all arranged to make it easy to connect peripherals and make your digital lifestyle effortless.
