Low Price Samsung N120-12GW 10.1-Inch White Netbook - 6 Cell Battery


Did not expect the machine to work as well as it did. Samsung has really thought out the design from a user's standpoint. The size of the screen is the weakest part of the experience. However Samsung predicted this and have built in some handy functions to mitigate the frustration that comes from moving from larger monitors to the smaller panel. The screen is very bright and can be used easily in direct sunlight without a problem. The graphics card is decent and can be hooked up to higher resolution monitors and TVs. The brightness range is more dramatic than the HP and Dell laptops I've had in the past. I can turn it up for viewing in direct sunlight, then turn it down for comfortable reading at night in the car.

The battery life if much better than expected. Timed it and I got about 10 hours of life (my Dell, Acer and HP laptops never came close to the published battery life). With an external (USB) high-end GPS receiver I got about 5 hours of continuous operation before the low battery warning would sound.

Never had a problem with lack of processor speed. Videos, and games work without hiccups or pauses.

My only complaint is the 'home' and 'end' key functions are difficult to use since you need to press the special function key with another. My opinion is that the 'home' and 'end' keys should be single key press keys. The 'page up' and 'page down' keys, that are less used, would be a better choice for the two key press scenario. After a few days of use I learned to not use the keys anymore.

Out in public I've received many comments/compliments on the machine. The white looks sharp.

Machine feels solid, durable. The mat finish feels good and is easy to grip and tote around.

All features (camera, wi-fi, etc) worked better than expected and without hiccups.

An unbelievable value for the price.
