The Panasonic T5 is an all-day ultralight. The 2.77 pound notebook has a 14-hour standard battery life (real world estimate of 7-10 hours) when used with its standard battery. The lightweight battery reduces the weight to 2.26 pounds but still provides 6.5 hours of use (3-4 real life).

It is built to withstand 50kg (110 pounds) of weight, as well as a 30cm (11.8 inch) drop. (Although it reaches this threshold in the lab, it is not guaranteed. And, the HDD is shock-mounted, to reduce the risk of physical data loss.

The chassis measures 10.55 x 8.27 x 1.03-1.53 inches, just enough for the keyboard to reach its outstanding 19mm keypitch. The Intel Centrino Core 2 Duo U7500 1.06GHz processor (with 2mb of on-chip cache) is complemented by 2.0gb RAM (max).

The T5's closest competition comes from other Panasonic models (the R6/W5/Y5), but there is no ultralight on the market that offers its battery life and wealth of integrated features in such a small package. Multiple color choices are also available by special order. (Black, gunmetal, blue, red, ice white, purple haze, golden, orange, pink diamond, chocolate.)
