SAMSUNG Series 3 NP300V5A-A09US Notebook Intel Pentium B950(2.10GHz) 15.6" 4GB Memory DDR3 1066 500GB HDD 5400rpm DVD SMDL (S-ATA) Intel HD Graphics

Pros: Nice "value" laptop. A nice facebook and MS office machine. Build quality seems good; still in great working order after 5 months.

Cons: not an i3 - no hyperthreading

Pros: I love that it's pink and white. I am enjoying the screen and the options it comes with, Its a nice size for traveling. I enjoy taking it home and syncing the ipads to it. Enough room to nicely store 60 gigs of music and my pst outlook email archives of 4 plus years.

Cons: The only problem I have had right now is getting this webcam to work properly. I keep getting a error that another product is using the webcam. But it isn't. I installed Skype, Gmail any application that will allow me to use the web cam but I can't get it to work. I enabled the driver thinking I can install another one, well I can't. So I am literally on the phone with Samsung trying to see why it doesn't work.

This does have smaller keys to type on but not horrible, just takes a minute to get use to them.

I wish that Samsung made a power docking station so that I didn't have cords on the side, it's uncomfortable to work around cords next to my hand.

Other Thoughts: Very nice. I really enjoy it. I work in a office and I am always on the laptop. So I love the color, that's my favorite thing about it.

Pros: I was obviously seduced by the design. I typically don't look for anything high powered since I don't do any gaming. I am a teacher and I needed the notebook strictly to do word processing, excel, e-mail and gchat/skype. This computer offers all of these things after all the updates are in place.

Cons: This does not come equipped with microsoft office (have a copy ready). Also, Pentium makes great processors, but poor wireless cards. I found out the hard way when I tried to do a skype conference and the wireless failed miserably. Save yourself some time and go straight to www.samsung.com and find the link to update the driver (I can't remember off the top of my head what the driver was--but if you call the samsung support team, they will guide you directly to the website and explain to you very easily how to extract the file).

Other Thoughts: I would have rated this computer in at 5 eggs had it come equipped for all my needs straight out of the box. Once the driver was updated, the laptop worked like a dream. Despite the initial headache, I would still recommend the computer--I just wish someone had told me this from the beginning!

Pros: Very Nice Notebook, using for school and basic Email, Love the color.

Cons: Alittle larger then I though but fine.

Pros: None, UPS apparently delivered the package to the wrong house (I was sitting by my front door watching the tracking page as the package was scanned "delivered" with the note: Front door.). This was supposed to be a gift for my mother.

Cons: This has been a massive headache. UPS sent me back to newegg to start an inquiry, which I did. Newegg asked me to wait 7-10 days for a reply. It's now been 2 weeks and still nothing - not even a reply as to whether the inquiry even began or an update on the status despite my further attempts to get in touch with newegg.

Other Thoughts: I don't think I will ever buy anything online over $50 that doesn't require at least a signature at pick up.

Pros: I consider myself blonde non techy kinds person. this so faris faster than my desktop. has large easy to see keys, a plus for me since i cant type and a numeric keypad. makes entering passwords easier. I really like it so far

Cons: battery life not nearly what is listed.

Other Thoughts: i purchased an extra power cord to have in my bag while one at home.

Pros: I purchased this notebook to replace my wifes Macbook notebook that had gone out. This is perfect and she is happy! Sound/speaker quality is great, plenty of storage room, I installed 8GB of RAM to make it even faster but it is pretty good stock. Perfect for home use.

Cons: None so far...

Pros: This is my first PC and I love it, it works great, it's fast and very well priced for the specs it has. I love the color, the contrast of white and pink is very pretty as a girl owner I really like it. The screen is large and the keyboard is also really nice. This laptop is great for everyday use, I don't run any large programs but I've been told to be careful because this laptop only had 5400rpm and if you intend on using it for more extensive work I'd suggest a 7200rpm laptop. It has a built in graphics card and the games I've downloaded all seem to be working fine. The applications are smooth and easy to run. Downloads are fast as well as internet (according on how strong it is though). Good battery life. All in all I really like this computer I haven't had any issues with it and I recommend it for anyone who just wants a computer for school or home etc.
Side note: The delivery took one day to get to my house.

Cons: Doesn't have a lot of storage but you can always get an external hard drive. Keys are smaller due to the added number pad, about the size of a Mac's. (In fact it looks almost identical to Mac minus the number pad.)

Pros: Pink
Fast
Large screen

Cons: N/A

Other Thoughts: Being unfamiliar with Samsung laptops, I was bit apprehensive about this one, especially since there were no reviews. However, after reading more about the Samsung brand, I decided to try this one; and I'm very happy I did!
I use this laptop for general use (i.e. internet browsing, homework, some Netflix, etc), and it runs fast. Setup was also really quick and uncomplicated.
I also absolutely adore the color - a bright fuchsia over white, and it doesn't look cheap, which I was concerned about.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this laptop.
This

Pros: Girlfriend loves the color and design
Adjustable fan speed
Fast boot/wake
Low energy consumption
Very nice keystroke feel from keyboard
Nice touch pad - very responsive
Very minimal bloatware - only had to uninstall 4 programs
Really cool software suite from Samsung that makes it easy to control power consumption, boot speed, system performanc and updates; especially good for less tech savvy users

Cons: Super-narrow viewing angle: I could not find a single angle that didnt distort at least some portion of the screen - even head on and directly centered.
The "0" key of the number pad is cut in half to make room for the "right arrow" key
Audio from speakers is lackluster
Not exactly quick - processor is definately slower than "i" series of processors

Other Thoughts: Under $500 + girlfriend loves it = success
