Genuine Windows® 7 Starter 

Chic and Unique, Simply Irresistible

 



Experience the ultra-fast performance

Unprecedentedly MSI applied the exclusive TDE (Turbo Drive Engine) technology to the 10” netbooks. The TDE Technology accelerates CPU frequency and achieves better performance. The Wind U160DX is equipped with the TDE Technology offering ultra-fast experience.

 

 

 

An iF winner. Compact and sleek design

The U160DX embodies a level of workmanship unrivalled by any other netbook. The winner of a product design award at the prestigious iF 2010 design awards in Germany, the U160DX has an ultra-slim chassis (only 19.8 mm at the thinnest point) and weighs just 1 kg, making this an almost unbelievably light and slim device.
 

 

 



Eye-catching colors that are chic and unique, simply irresistible

Glittering with a pearl-like radiance, the U160DX offers you a choice of two colors: Fancy Gold or Jet Black. There is a rich variation in color tone depending on the light source that is being reflected off the surface, giving the U160DX a charming elegance that will never go out of fashion.

 

 

Unique Scratch-free

Color Film Print Technology, the sparkling, scratch-resistant enamel provides a high degree of rigidity. Under different light sources, this finish will emit a multitude of color variations that create sparkling visual effects and evoke a minimalist undertone of taste and style.

 

 

 

 

Ultra Chic and More Fun

MSI's chiclet keyboard design – more stylish, and more comfortable for you 

The stylish chiclet keyboard design expands the area of contact between fingers and keys when compared to regular keyboards, reducing typing errors and increasing comfort.

In addition, the chiclet keyboard is designed to damp key-press sounds. Whether typing or gaming, the chiclet keyboard means you no longer have to fret about disturbing those around you with keyboard clicks and clatter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A touchpad that merges seamlessly into the palm-rest, making the U160DX more enjoyable to use

The extra-wide touchpad built into the U160DX merges seamlessly into the surrounding area of the chassis, allowing your fingers to move around more freely. The touchpad comprises a grid of raised dots that enhance both the tactile effect and aesthetic attraction, and make it both fun and easy to use.

 

A dazzlingly attractive logo on the netbook lid, with a special power switch light on the end of the display hinge

The design of the U160DX embodies painstaking attention to detail. The MSI logo on the upper lid emits a glorious white radiance, which combines with the blue LED power switch light on the end of the display hinge to create a beautiful, calming effect even in the dark.

 


 



Rev up your day with super-long battery life

No need to bring along heavy power supply units and look all over for outlets, the Wind U160DX offers super-long battery life to give you full power all day long.


User-friendly Design that Touches Your Heart

Superior image and more energy efficient 

Wind U160DX is embedded with the LED power-saving backlit technology in providing better color fullness and brightness, elevating the total quality of imagery. Furthermore, the lower usage of power can offer a longer operating time.

 


 


Superb image like never before

The MSI Wind U160DX’s superior 8ms response time gives the performance needed for any display application. Even fast-moving dynamic video is rendered with smooth, fluid motion and no ghosting or other artifacts for a beautifully realistic viewing experience.


Switch to wireless networking at the click of a button

With the U160DX, you can connect to or disconnect from a wireless network just be pressing a button, making for relaxed, convenient Internet usage.

Easy, convenient upgrading

The U160DX’s user-friendly design makes upgrading device RAM or other modules incredibly simple.
