"This laptop is perfect,the screen is bright and crisp,the aluminum body is durable and lightweight,you never really hear the fans ramp up.This computer never really gets hot even after long use running multiple apps and programs. The mouse pad took a little getting use to it,but after you get the hang of it,it's pretty nice to use.The keyboard in my opinion is awesome,the "island" style(spacing between keys) keyboard feels very nice to use,and the keys aren't too hard or too soft,they're just right."
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, doesn't get hot even after long periods of use, battery life

"Tons of storage, GREAT screen, and the metal bits are a very nice touch. Samsung has built a great quality computer, and packed tons of features in! Battery is a solid 6-7 hour battery. It's nice and thin...what's not to like?"
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, tons of storage, still has a vga connection, 1 year warranty

"I work on board a train from Chicago to Oakland, CA. I bought this computer a year ago and it still feels new to me. My last few laptops after one year had fallen apart, i.e. rubber feet, keys falling off, screws falling out, DVD drive broken, and usually exactly when the warranty expired. This baby still looks and acts new. The strong body has taken everything I've thrown at it, and still looks new. The battery still holds a charge almost as good as when it was new, and it really is a workhorse! I love it!"
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, stylish, powerful
Cons: no remote

"Hi, I´ve bought this notebook for personal use, I´m about to get my degree in software engineering, and I´ve to use softs like visual studio, DB servers, etc....
This notebook icore 5 worked perfect!! has great performance, it´s acceptable for all tasks I do when working.
Also I´ve fun with some games like tomb rider, etc... some of the new ones will not work, or work slow, but I was not looking for that, so that´s ok.
There is only one thing I dont´like, and it´s that the keyboard scratchs on the LED glass, some buttons, are marked on the screen, and it´s not good. only 1 year of use.
I´d like to know if Samsung provide some fix for it, maybe changing the LED glass. Please let me know, as I asssume this is a factory issue.
You can put something between the keyboard and the glass and it will protect it, but I´ve discovered that when it was late. :S :S

"I have had this laptop a little over a year now and this is still by far the best 14" laptop you can buy on the market right now. You get a very large hard drive, a super fast processor, and overall great performance and a sleek design. The only thing you will find on other laptops but not on this one is Bluetooth. This wasn't a huge deal to me cause I never use it on a computer anyways and so far after a year I still have never needed to use it. The only thing I wish this laptop had is a back-lit keyboard. If you are looking for something that has a similar design as a Macbook but with Windows 7, better performance, a bigger hard drive, and more memory for half the price, this is what you are looking for. The design is pretty similar to the Macbook. By that I mean it has a similar keyboard, mouse pad, and is very slim (slimmer than every 14" I looked at). This also has an HDMI port which I use ALL the time to watch movies on my TV."
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: no back lit keyboard

"I bought this for use while traveling and I actually like it better than my #&%book pro. I love the design, the performance is obviously not quite as great as the mac because it doesnt have the i7 and 8gb RAM that the @*% does, but the @*# was also more than twice the cost. I find myself using the Samsung laptop over the *%@book(work computer) whenever possible. I run photoshop cs5 and Adobe bridge on this hooked up to a 42 inch full HD and get great picture quality through the HDMI connection. I have recommended the samsung laptops to many friends that were looking at getting *#$book pros, most of them don't believe me but I really like this computer better and reccommend it to anyone who is on the market for a new laptop looking for performance on a budget."

"I have been trying for a while to find a PC that can really go up against Apple and beat it. And this one can. It's definitely head-turning, and with the right customization and programs, you can make this into the perfect computer. Nothing I have encountered so far, in 8 months of use, is really that negative. Speakers are a bit soft, but really that's no reason not to by this. It's also very durable, as I have found after dropping it and denting it. Absolutely no effect, it just keeps on going. The trackpad scrolling feature stopped working once, but Samsung's helpline was so helpful they had my computer back to perfection in a matter of minutes. Really a very good computer."
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, very good disk space

"I can't be much happier with this laptop than I am. It has excellent functionality, speed (even without having yet upgraded RAM to maximum). The screen display is excellent, and multitasking multiple programs at once goes very well.
The processor speed is great, the form factor is slim but more metallic and not plastic-like. The keys on the keyboard are island style, which I believes makes for more accurate typing, as laptop typing can feel strange and easy to mistype.
The shortcut hardware and Fn buttons are great as well. It has webcam and microphone built in, and the touchpad features and settings are very good and intuitive.
You will not regret getting this if you are looking for the 14.x" display and great battery life for a laptop."
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, solid feeling and appearance, very good processor speed, max ram 8gb

"I intentionally waited about 6 months to write this review so I had time locate (and sometimes fix) any quirks. Good news is I found very few. As a university instructor, I was not intersted in fancy graphics or big screens. I wanted something that could run multiple Office programs and browser tabs without sacrificing speed or performance. The is that computer. The good and the bad:
Value:
This was the least expensive laptop I could find with an i5 processor and screen larger than 9 in. Nothing bad to say here.

Performance:
1. This computer does not sacrifice speed for performance.
2. I don't know why some people seem to have battery issues. I get ~8 hrs of battery life (no kidding!!), and that is with settings set to not reduce screen brightness when unplugged. For one, those descriptions on the sale sign did not lie about battery life!.

Design & Feature (these really go together):
GOOD -
1.This was also the least expensive computer (actually, on of the few in general) that had a metal construction. One thing that has surprised me is that the cover has not gotten any scratches on it! Screen is sharp but has minimal glare.
2. I love the raised keyboard. Responds well and looks really slick.
3. Lightweight and very thin.

3. Lightweight and very thin.
BAD (and how to fix some)
1. You've probably already read this if you did your homework, but the touch pad is horrible. The programming behind it has too many features - I recommend going into those settings and disabling a lot of it. The other problem (which was just really stupid design, is that the tracking part of the pad overlaps the click buttons, so you have to keep your finger very still if clicking with the buttons and not tapping on the pad or the cursor moves as you click. This also makes dragging very difficult. SOLUTIONS: Out of habit, I often click with the left hand while dragging with the right and that seems to help. Also, the click buttons respond better if you click towards the outside. Finally, I also always use an external mouse (ergonomic due to pain problems), so a majority of time it is not a problem.

2. With the out-of-the-box settings you cannot attach an external monitor: the computer will go to sleep even if it is plugged in. To fix this you need to disable Samsung's Faststart programming. If you're not sure how to do this, try a quick online search - many answers.
3. The battery cannot be removed without taking off the ENTIRE backplate while on most computers it can just be slipped off. Why is this a problem? Two reasons: I always used to carry an extra battery for my old laptops (especially when travelling) so I had a spare if I didn't have access to an outlet. But even worse, If you spill liquid on your laptop the first two steps are always unplug it and take out the battery. When I accidentally spilled coffee on my keyboard (stupid, stupid, stupid) it took me almost 20 min to get the battery out. Unbelievably, there was no damage after leaving it out to dry for ~12 hours.
4. The keyboard again. With a Mac-like design, why couldn't they make it backlit?
4.5 It does not have Bluetooth. Why does this only get half a point? Because I don't use Bluetooth for anything.
BOTTOM LINE: I know that seems like a lot of bad things, but the good far outweigh them. I highly recommend this computer to anyone looking for a functional computer that gets the job done efficiently and with style. Kudos to Samsung and welcome to the world of consumer laptops. I hope it only gets better from here."
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight, battery life, style
Cons: touchpad is awful, battery is difficult to access

"After about three months, I am very happy with my purchase. So happy that I don't feel any regrets about not getting the other, more expensive laptop I wanted. I love how durable and (surprisingly) lightweight it is, the fast processor and sharp display is perfect for photo/video editing and watching movies, and the hard drive has more than enough space for all of my photos and music. The aluminum and glass is classy and beautiful, and the track pad is intuitive and easy to use, although I did have to tweak quite a few settings. I originally bought a USB mouse, but I don't even use it anymore. I did have a problem with a (VERY) graphics-intensive game crashing the graphics card, but this laptop isn't built for gaming, and the computer performed far better than I'd expected, otherwise. All of the other games I play work perfectly, which I consider more of a perk than a requirement. Even the battery lasts longer than I'd expect, usually around 3-5 hours, depending on what I'm doing.
Overall, this laptop is excellent for off-the-desk computing (my favorite place is the couch ;] )."
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, looks great, great value
Cons: graphics card not the best

"I've had this laptop about six months and I'm still extremely happy with it. The build quality is fantastic, it looks great and it's solid. The metal casing is tough and doesn't get scratched or dirty. The trackpad hasn't worn out and gone all smooth yet, unlike on my previous laptops.
Performance is great, battery life is very good, though not quite as good as they claim. I suppose I'd get seven hours if I didn't touch it and left it with the screen all dark, but in actual use I get somewhere between four and five. Still very reasonable.
Very cool feature: one USB port is powered even when the machine is sleeping so you can charge devices off it.
Not so great: the Intel WiFi software turns your laptop into a hotspot for other wireless devices. I found this very useful. But one day it just started to not work very well, most things won't connect. I've done lots of research and it's a problem with the Intel drivers that affect many machines, not just this one. But it's quite disappointing that it doesn't work right.
Great: system runs pretty cool, even under heavy load. My lap used to be scorched by my old laptop, now I'm just uncomfortably warm.
Not great: lack of FireWire. It's not a huge problem, but I wanted to hook up a FW video camera and wasn't able to.
Okay: the keyboard is pretty good. Not the best I've used, but pretty good. It's a bit soft for my liking, but I prefer heavy clicky keys. It's better than most. The keycaps do lose their texture after a few months of use though.
Overall: Absolutely great machine. What issues I have aren't major. Battery life is really quite good, weight is good, build quality and style are excellent. I'm extremely pleased with this machine and (especially if this wifi hotspot business can be worked out) I'd buy it again without hesitation. Very highly recommended."
Pros: Durable, Lightweight, build quality, style, charging usb port, runs cool, keyboard, value for money
Cons: no firewire, buggy wifi hotspot mode

"I just got this laptop a couple weeks ago after my old one died. For the past few years, I've been buying low-quality computers, and found myself replacing them about once a year or so due to various issues. This time, I decided to spend a little more than I usually do, and get something nice.
So far, I made the right decision.
First, the design of this laptop is just beautiful, which doesn't come as a surprise with a Samsung product. The aluminum casing, the keyboard, everything fits seamlessly together. It's pretty striking visually.
In terms of performance, everything is perfect so far. I do some light gaming now and then (Battlefield 2, Call of Duty, etc.), a LOT of work with Excel, and the usual online stuff. This laptop's been every bit as speedy and responsive as I expected, particularly with multitasking. My previous system was running Windows 7 Home Premium on 2 GB of RAM, and I can really tell the difference between that and the 4 GB of RAM this system has.
Number one pleasant surprise: it's SO quiet. It makes virtually no sound during normal use. Every once in a while while playing Battlefield 2, I'll hear the fans kick on, but even then it's still much quieter than my old computer.
Only one complaint, Samsung. The built-in touchpad is just brutal. I really hate it. It feels jerky, it often left clicks when I want it to right click, and isn't particularly responsive. I use a USB mouse, so it's not a big enough issue to affect my rating. But, if I ever have to use this without a mouse (hasn't happened yet), I'll end up seriously annoyed at it.
Overall, I say buy it. No hesitation. Unless you can afford the Series 9, of course, which looks incredible."
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, beautiful design
Cons: touchpad is subpar

"In November of 2010 I realized my Gateway computer was giving out and needed something more reliable. So I started looking for a new laptop. First I purchased an HP because it was on sale but the very next day I brought it back to the store because it was so awful. I had been eyeing this Samsung machine in the store, but hadn't been sure about my budget.
After bringing back the faulty HP I went back over to the Samsungs. I started playing with this model in the store and LOVED it!!! Everything was so responsive and fast and I just felt like it was "me". It just felt natural and easy to use. So I bought it.
I have not been disappointed! The keyboard is awesome, the trackpad is easy to use for the most part (more on that later) and I do like how sensitive it is so I just have to gently scroll or tap to get things done. I tend to be an impatient person and I like to open multiple windows and switch back and forth multitasking and it handles what I throw at it very well without freezing up.
Samsung thought of a lot of neat little things too, to help speed things up...and the fact it can sleep immediately when you close it and then wake back up again when you open it. The whole computer just seems to be well thought out...its what you need, not a lot of extra frills that you do NOT need...perfect.
Oh and I also really like how the touchpad is centered on the space bar. Some touchpads in other brands are centered on the machine itself, and I cannot type that way! Has to be centered on the space bar for me.
I only have a few cons on this machine and they are very small. One is that for some reason, I often have to push the power button on twice to get the machine to power up. I'm not sure why that is...but it does power up, so that's okay...and then I just leave it on sleep all day when I'm not using it. Not a big deal. Another is that its a small worry that I cannot remove the battery...but so far have had no reason to need to do that. Lastly...I do have occasional problems with the touchpad buttons no being responsive to a click...however usually I just use the tapping feature and its fine. Recently I did have problems with the cursor jumping all around so I was advised to reinstall the touchpad drivers, which I did, and it fixed the problem.
No computer is without its bugs though, and I think this machine has far fewer "bugs" than most others! Its an awesome computer and I really love it!!! I'm sooo happy that I chose this one and hope to be a Samsung notebook customer for a very long time!"
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, user friendly, smooth scrolling, good quality, good battery life, fast multitasking, great keyboard, attractive professional appearance
Cons: power button a tad squirrelly, trackpad buttons a tad squirrelly, battery cannot be removed by user

"This laptop is great. It is very fast. It has a very long battery life. It has everything the MacPro 2 has, except it is nowhere near as expensive as it. It is a very high quality computer that is cheaper than its high quality competitors. It has a very slick, stylish design and it is aluminum on the outside to protect it from minor falls and hits."
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, great battery life

"This computer is one of the best I have seen in along time. It is built well, feature rich and not loaded with all that extra software you will not use and just have to remove. I cannot say enough good things about this laptop. The only things I would change would be to have USB 3.0, a thicker plastic on the bottom or solid aluminum, and a back-lit keyboard but that is just me being picky. Customer support is second to none; the fact is I cannot say enough good things about this computer so just go and by one."

I get well over 5 hours while watch movies on the Samsung optimized power setting. The laptop is great. I only wish it had a longer cord and bluetooth (I can live without it though)"

An all-around great machine that will last me years

PostedJanuary 10, 2011
"I pride myself in owning good tech, and taking care of the tech that I own. I'm proud to report that this laptop will last me for many years. It is powerful, sleek, responsive, attractive. I enjoy typing on the keyboard so much that it has actually improved my productivity as a freelance writer.
Watching a DVD? Fire this bad boy up and enjoy impressive visuals and great sound.
Music? Decent speakers provide good depth and sufficent volume to music, but won't blow away any concert hall.
Battery life? I'm not too sure how this thing is being advertised as being capable of 7+ hours of battery life. The most I can get is 4.5, but that's still pretty impressive! More than enough time, in my opinion.
And lastly, when I'm feeling like I need a little guilty pleasure, I'm proud to report that this bad boy can play Starcraft 2! I've yet to test out the true gaming capabilities of this machine, but I've heard reports that it can play Batman Arkham Asylum or Modern Warfare 2.
All in all, a great laptop for work or play. I HIGHLY recommend it.
(Last point: Some people have gripes with the touchpad. I'm not too sure why. My advice? Get used to it. You'll find the multi-touch features are actually useful, especially the three-finger window switching feature. I love it.)"
Pros: Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, i love the sleek brushed steel exterior., very lightweight. under 5 lbs!, the touchpad is great! stop whining people!
Cons: who said the battery life can exceed 7 hours?

"I didn't even know Samsung made computers until my husband found an ad. Reviews were excellent. It's gorgeous. I bought it. I'm 95% happy with it, and that compares to about 80% or less for any of the previous four notebook computers I've owned. It's fast, the display is spectacular, the keyboard responsive, the sound is clear and crisp. It's significantly lighter in weight than previous machines.
So far this machine has handled everything I've thrown at it.
The disappointing parts are the touchpad, which seems sluggish and "sticky", and the microphone, which is frankly awful, at least for recording.The webcam is fair. But even these weak points are passable. They just don't measure up to the performance overall.
Oh! That seven hour battery life? Maybe if you turn off all background apps, kill your desktop picture, dim the display 50% and do nothing but type... Real life is on the low side of 3 hours. That claim is a lot like saying a serving of pizza has only 3 grams of fat and then you learn that's true if you stick to the designated 16 servings per pie."

"I have to say that so far I have had zero problems with my laptop, I love the sleek and stylish design as well as the performance and the included manufacturer software. Some of the software that comes with it I will not use but may be very useful for consumers that want things to run very seemlessly, the customization and options are great. I like that the keys on the keyboard are a little spaced out, I didn't realize it when I bought it, but I've noticed that it greatly reduces mistakes especially if your not the best typist in the world. I also love the "feel" of the keys. The laptop also stays very cool and the air vent for heat exchange is located at the back in the middle which is very good if you actually have the laptop on your lap as it will not be blocked by the leg. The touchpad is very nice as well. Overall I'm very satisfied with the screen and system performance. If I had to give any negatives they would be that it does'nt have a SATA port and it's built in memory card reader will not take MemoryStick"

"I've had my old Toshiba laptop for only 2.5 years and it's already slowed down quite a bit. I am in the architecture program in college and I needed a laptop that could be carried back and forth to campus that was light, fast, had lots of memory, and a good graphics card to support all of the programs I need to run (usually 2-3 programs running at a time). THIS LAPTOP DOES IT ALL! The battery lasts about 3-4 hours when I used 2 programs, webcam, and watched a DVD at the same time. It's fast and can handle running Photoshop and Illustrator at the same time. The look of it is sleek, and I absolutely love that the extra USB and HDMI plugs are hidden. The speaker and graphics are great for my use. The touchpad features make surfing the web easier too."
Pros: fast, easy-to-use touchpad, long battery life, small

"I've had this computer for about three weeks, and I have to say that I'll probably never own a computer from another brand. Ever.
I was debating between this computer and an Asus, but when I went to Best Buy, the Asus computers on display did not meet my standards.
After talking with one sales agent, I'd found the best solution: this computer.
I use this for EVERYTHING. Video games, Photoshop, HD video editing (both in After Effects and Live Movie Maker), and schoolwork in general.
Gaming:
I have no problems running games. I run Team Fortress 2 and Assassin's Creed without a problem or lag-fail.

Video Editing:
After Effects renders video on-the-spot quickly and without a snare. 720p HD video renders fast, even frame-by-frame in After Effects.
After Effects renders video on-the-spot quickly and without a snare. 720p HD video renders fast, even frame-by-frame in After Effects.
Photoshop:
I work in a native size of 55x41.25 inches, 72ppi. For my Advanced Digital Imaging course, I have to work with the same size photos at 300ppi. This computer, even on battery power, powers through image resizing and saving.
(For all you who need a size comparison: think about each image as a high-resolution fleece throw, just slightly smaller.)

Battery life is great, I get 5 hours powerhousing through the school day. I've gotten as much as 6 1/2 hours, but never the full 7, which isn't a problem since I was practically tethered to a power outlet with 1/2 hour of battery life before.
All in all, a great powerhouse with a great look, too. Most people ask me which one is better: Mac or Samsung?
I tell them Samsung. It looks like a Mac, but it's so much better. Sure, you'll get the "popular" computer if you buy a Mac.
Better processor, hard drive, graphics card, and a bigger screen for way less than the base Macbook Pro.
Five stars, Samsung. You've done an amazing job with a quality computer."
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, great multitasker, good graphics, nice processor, everything else
Cons: nothing

Just missing a video card

"This is an amazing all around notebook.
First and foremost, let me say the design is excellent. The although the bottom is plastic, it doesn't feel cheap at all, while the top of the case (the part surrounding the touchpad, keyboard as well as the lid on the monitor) is made of metal and is very cool and sturdy, with no give or flex (including the keyboard).
The chiclet style keyboard and touchpad are both a pleasure to use. The touchpad is very responsive, and multi-touch works great, I don't know how I've lived without it.
The laptop is also very thin and lightweight, but stays remarkably cool and is quiet, but not silent.
The performance is okay, it has an i5 which is great, but the GeForce 310M is def. lacking and useless for anything but older games. The harddrive is spacious, but slow at 5400 RPM. I'll probably replace it with an SSD anyways.
Battery life is great at around 4-6 hours. This unit also supposedly has a Lithium Polymer battery that is more resistant to wear, and can last 1000+ charge cycles. That's good news as it's integrated and not user-removable.
All in all I would say this is a great laptop for portability, design and light gaming. It has the look and feel of a premium product (as well as the performance, minus the graphics card), without a premium price! Go samsung!"

Great, but screen resolution is it's biggest con.

PostedNovember 28, 2010
"Well, I must say I'm a very picky guy with every single detail a notebook has, and I've researched for about 3 months for the exact right laptop for me. I wanted a very powerful, light and thin notebook, which i could use for every sort of things i wanted. From simple web browsing to an occasional gaming, the machine should be able to handle it well. And should last long, since i'm not planning to buy any other notebook on the next 4-5 years.
After a long time researching i came across the QX410, and its specs were the closest to what i wanted. I had this big excel sheet with every notebook i saw and that would possibly be the one for me. In the end, i was between a dm4, a Portege R705-P41, and the QX410.
Between these three, i'm happy i went with the QX410. The notebook is beautiful (at first i thought it was ugly on the pictures, but it's way better when you see it live), it's fast, and it has a good battery life. I don't know why they designed the bezel under the screen to be bigger than the one on top, but that's something you ignore after some time.
The touchpad is something i'm still getting used to, but apparently, weird touchpads are common nowadays. My last laptop was 5 years old, and by that time, when multitouch wasn't a must, touchpads just worked. When you change the default settings it gets way better though, and i wouldn't say this is something really important to care about.
Though, my biggest concern is about the screen. Oh God, if this laptop had a 1080p screen, this would be the most perfect notebook ever made. I actually don't know why Samsung didn't choose to do that, since they produce such high quality TV screens. Just to make it clear: there's nothing wrong with my 1366x768 screen, i just wish it had a better resolution. I'm just used to having a 1600x1050 resolution on my older notebook, and i think that was one of its best pros. Please, Samsung, remember to have a better resolution screen on you next laptops...I'm paying for a high-end product, so I expect to get a high-end product. Not a regular screen.
Another thing i need to point it out: There's no noise or excessive heat on this computer. At all. You can work with it on your lap, and it won't feel uncomfortable. Or has any disturbing sound.
Speakers are just regular. Nothing to write about that.
It was a nice touch putting dedicated volume keys. That would be definitely something I'd miss. I'd be even better if they had Play and Forward/Backward keys.
The keyboard, when i first tried it at Best Buy, was good, but i kept hitting the touchpad accidentally. When i got the product, though, i had no problems whatsoever with that. You just need to set the right settings for the touchpad. Besides that, the keyboard is awesome, The keys are responsive and it is comfortable to type in it.
Overall, the computer is really good, it has a solid build, it's fast, thin, light, and it's beautiful. Specially with the lid closed. If you don't mind having a 768p screen, look no further, this is your perfect laptop (believe me, you have no idea how much research I've put on). Or, do it like I did, and try to get used to it."
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, fast, thin
Cons: Not high def, and not high def, touchpad needs some time to get used to

"> Looks and feels like a premium device all at a very moderate price point.
> Design aesthetics are top notch.
> The track-pad problems seem overrated! There is a slight learning curve, but anyone with a little patience can master it in a few hours.
> Silent and cool!! Seriously I cant hear any noise coming from this system. (My old HP could be heard from over 20 feet away and easily be used to bake a cake!).

Overall great product. would highly recommend it to anyone in the market for a new device (I actually managed to convince quiet a few to clueless best buy customers who were looking at those inherently defective Dell machines to make the switch to Samsung :D )"
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, silent
Cons: no bluetooth

PostedNovember 18, 2010

"So the backstory to this review is that I had been shopping for a laptop for almost two years. Now, I'm normally slow to make decisions like this but not normally that slow. The problem was that I am a PC. I used to be a Mac when I was in college, but now I work and having an Apple at home (while cool) adds more complexity to my life. I want one platform - even if it's less "cool".
Even still, I was plenty tempted by the MB Pro. I really wanted one, but honestly, a base platform of 128G hard drive? Core2Duo processors? for how much? It's just crazy. I get that Mac's are "special" but give me a break. I'd be out of disk space on the base model and I'm not even a power user. That's just weak.
But there's a lot to like about the MB Pro, it's fit and finish are exceptional. It's just too expensive to justify that quality AND force me to "make the switch" to re-learning the Mac platform - no matter how intuitive it is.
So instead of plunking down 2k for a MB Pro that would actually be useful for what I needed, I had been waiting for a PC equivalent. The Adamo was too expensive and people complained about the build quality. The HP Envy was promising but 13" is too small for my needs and 17" was too big. The new 14" Envy seemed nice but to get it equipped for my needs would put me close to MB Pro prices. Plus, if you want a longer battery life, you have this big battery plate that you have to clip onto the bottom of the Envy, which just kills the cool factor of it. Slot loading CD drive or not. None of the PC options felt right and I was just about to make the MP Pro plunge.
Until . . .
I walked by this laptop in Best Buy on my way to get a new travel mouse. Aluminum case. Chiclet keyboard. Nice big trackpad. Beautiful, minimalist design without the funky etchings like on the Envy. Core i5. Huge hard drive. Discrete, smart, hybrid graphic chipset (this is as cool as it sounds). And then I saw the price and almost fell over.
I'd never seen or even heard of this laptop until that moment (probably because it's Best Buy-only and I rarely find myself in a Best Buy), but I knew in 1 minute of typing on it that this was the PC I had waited 2 years for.
I've had it now for about a week and it's just beautiful. It's fast (I run Photoshop and Illustrator and other large applications), wonderfully designed and a joy to type on. It's cool to the touch and there's plenty of battery. It's quiet. Music is clean and crisp through headphones (though tinny as per usual on laptop speakers). It's just *awesome*.
So if you want a MB Pro but don't really care about "being a Mac". If you don't want to pay a premium price for outdated or limited hardware. If you appreciate design and a quality build, do yourself a favor and check this laptop out. It's what you want. Trust me.
Thank you Samsung. It may have taken a while to respond to Apple's genuinely impressive design, but you responded with gusto. Well played - keep the PCs with this design sense and pricing coming and I won't need to wait so long before I upgrade next time.
One note, I'm a clumsy typer and I realized that when I typed I grazed the trackpad and caused all manner of craziness to happen - cursor skipping around, things getting highlighted and deleted. If you're a little sloppy as a typer, you'll notice it right away. Anyway, there's a Google app that freezes the mousepad when you're typing. You'll want to take a look at that if you have the same issue. It's called TouchFreeze."
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

"amazing battery life, sleek design, great trackpad with multitouch, (btw the top is actually aluminum, although it may not feel like it). overall, youre getting more than your money's worth with this laptop. i5 processor, 4gb RAM, 640gb hardrive, computers with these features usually cost a few hundred more than what you pay for this one. and it runs very well. 3 second start up is more like 5, but still very quick"

"have had this laptop for 2-3 years and use it for everything including BSA training and presentation so it gets hauled around and spends its entire life turned on. Battery life is amazing even now and the keypad has a soft touch that feels good and positive. Touch pad took a lot of getting used to as it seems to be aware of thumbs passing close and moving the cursor. Fast and cool just as you would want it and almost silent. Only thing missing is blue tooth to synch phone to outlook"
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, runs very cool

"So I bought this laptop for the gaming aspects of it. Mainly for World of Worldcraft since its graphics demand a graphics card to keep from ruining a laptop. So I started playing World of warcraft on it and 3 months later, im having fan issues, with overheating. Keep in mind I bought it for WOW, but didnt start playing it for 1 year and 3 months after inital purchase. I figured it was dust build up, so I cleaned it out, but learned I had to take it apart to get to my fan and battery. Not good. But I managed it well and it still works. But im afraid the heat did its damage already. WOW was awesome till this, and I took very good care of this laptop so IDK. I love it, but wouldnt recommend it to no one. I now wish I spent just a couple hundred more for a better gaming laptop. Lesson in this just might be laptops are just too small for gaming. But I wont know till I spend another thousand dollars..... Oh GOD!!!"
