A fast notebook that stands out from the larger brands. With an elegant design, great performance, and all the right features, Solstice is perfect for everyone.

Ultra fast Intel Core i5 dual core and Core i7 quad core processors

Solstice 15 is a powerful notebook thanks in part to its fast Intel Core i5 and Core i7 processors. With dual and quad core options, there's the perfect power level for everyone. The processors in every Solstice feature smart Intel technologies that save power when you're just browsing the web, checking email, or working on documents; and boosts power when you need maximum performance for photo and video editing or gaming.

Fast NVIDIA GeForce GT 520M graphics for high quality visuals

When you need plenty of graphics performance to run your favorite games like The Sims 3, League of Legends, Dirt 3, Skyrim, and other popular games, Solstice delivers with its standard NVIDIA GeForce GT 520M graphics. But it's not just for games. Everything benefits from the quality graphics from NVIDIA, like watching YouTube videos or HD movies, or exploring the world in Google Earth.

THX certified premium sound

Solstice features premium quality sound with THX TruStudio Pro. Plug in your headphones or a speaker system and be amazed by its crisp digital quality. THX offers enhanced sound effects so you get the feeling of surround sound, from just your headphones, two speakers, or even the built-in stereo speakers on every Solstice.

NVIDIA Optimus Technology for balanced battery life and performance

Solstice 15 is smart on power, too. With its NVIDIA Optimus feature, Solstice intelligently switches between the power-saving Intel HD Graphics, or the more powerful NVIDIA GeForce GT 520M graphics when you need more performance.


HDMI, USB 3.0, Wireless N, Bluetooth, Webcam, Blu-ray disc — The latest, useful technologies

When it comes to HD media and fast performance, there are few notebooks like Solstice. With HDMI, you can connect your notebook to a TV or external monitor at HD resolutions for an extended desktop experience. Put your HDTV or Solstice's HD display to good use with the optional Blu-ray player, and enjoy HD movies as intended, further enhanced by THX TruStudio Pro audio playback. When you need to transfer files quickly, rely on the latest ports like USB 3.0 and eSATA for less waiting and more productivity.
