One of the Best Netbooks on the Market!
- Pros: This netbook is by far one of the best netbooks on the market today. As made by samsung it has a nice feel to it and is not too small and is not too big at the same time.
The use of the new Via Nano CPU U2250(1.3+GHz) has helped to make this the fastest netbook I have ever used! It makes all the Intel atoms look bad. It slows down when you dont need it as much and speeds up when you do. It ranges from 500Mhz to 1.6Ghz in processing speed.
Battery life is excellent as well when your using it away from the plug. It has a 800Mhz Front side bus! that is the fastest on and available netbook today!
It has a 5400 rpm HD with about 160 Gigs for storage! Plus many other great aspecs like Wlan, Bluetooth, 1.3meg Camera, 10/100mbps lan, built in speakers, 1 gig DDR 2 memory, and more!
- Cons: Problems/Issues with this netbook:
I was a little disapointed with the placement of the speakers. Being under the computer does not help to project sound for two speakers that already lack the ability to be loud!
The keyboard will take time to get used to as it is all crammed into a small space.
The only other problem I had was in fact a MAJOR issue! The Wireless Lan card did NOT work properly! I could not access the internet! Thus completely making the netbook pointless, as it's soul purpose was emliminated
! Strangely enough the intergrated Wlan COULD receive data but COULD NOT consistantly send data! It had a problem transfering data and packets! Thus causing me to RMA the item for replacement, which I am still waiting for. I dont think this is a big issue as no one else seems to have had it! I just got a defective one.
- Other Thoughts: I highly recommend upgrading to 2 gigs of ram when you purchase the netbook! It only has 1 bay so you will have to get a 2 gig stick to switch them out! It runs much much smoother!
Excellent product from Samsung! I was very impressed with this netbook.
Great Mini-Notebook
- Pros: We use this mini-notebook (Samsung has "mini-notebook" printed on the keyboard surface) even though it's found under netbooks.
We use it with a Bluetooth GPS and a Bluetooth mouse and love it. We just recently tethered a wireless phone to it so that we can access the internet while traveling.
The built-in speakers are better than my Lenovo laptop speakers. The keyboard is great. . .feels like full sized. Battery life has been good. . .we've run it about four hours and it didn't quit.
The screen brightness can be turned up quite high - high enough for outdoor use.
The machine is used to access corporate intranet via wifi with no problem. Just installed Adobe Element 7 and all seems to function quickly.
We bought the machine for internet use, photo-editing and GPS mapping. We haven't attempted any video editing or processing.
Yes, we would buy this machine again.
- Cons: It does have a shiny case that smudges easily.
People not knowing what they are talking anout.
- Pros: Decent for a netbook. Uses anything besides an Atom.
- Cons: A little pricey, but like the fact that it uses something besides the Atom, I think the Atom is a second rate product and we are being forced to accept it because of lack of viable competition. At least when Intel took over the high end market it was on the strength of the product, not the fact that they could just dump whatever they wanted on us.
- Other Thoughts: I did not buy mine at New Egg, sorry Egg. Another retailer had it $100.00 cheaper. But usually your prices are awesome. My other thoughts are, people ought to at least have an idea what they are talking about before posting a review. One of the reviews for this unit, a guy says that you could save $200 and get a netbook. Could he really be so ill informed as to not realize that this is a NETBOOK? Know what your talking about before you post. Or at least be more honest about your tech skill before you type something ill informed. Many people base their final purchase decisions on what people have to say here.
