Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, everything
Cons: none!

I am surprise about this samsung series 9 computer its very slick and very light weight amazing design with great value.
The only drawback is 128GB SSD hard drive but as of today it is very expensive hard drive. In future once it will get cheaper i am sure i will be getting more space.

The battery life is great start up time is amazing than any windows pc in the market.
Track pad is huge just has to get used to it.
Also this is the only computer that offers all samsung series 9 computer with 3 years manufacture warranty than any other company in market which they want to sell for more.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, 3 yr manufacture warranty.
Cons: small space of hard drive.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fancy and convenient

This product reminds me of the "Black Bird"--a legendary fighter jet, because of its slim, seemless, rounded features and dark black color. I love the design, but probably the main merit is SSD. It's not only fast, but also makes almost no sound at all. Great, convenient keyboard, wide screen, lightweight. The only two things I wish it had is 1) the port for micro sd-card allowed to keep the card inside the pocket (that would make an extra storage for data); 2) indicator with approximate time remaining for battery (percentage really does not help much). Apart from these, it looks great and works great!
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: pricey
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very nice design, light and fast
on January 14, 2012

PROS: I bought this laptop for its weight and ultraportable form-factor. It looks as light as MBA, however it is a full-featured laptop with excellent battery life, fantastic screen and nice specs. Very nice keyboard illumination. Overall design is strikingly sharp. CONS: the laptop color is too black and shiny for my taste. Would be nice to have in different color (WHITE, SILVER?). The touchpad is not perfect (two finger scrolling is not working solidly). Also, the VGA adapter for connecting to external projectors/monitors is not provided (had to buy separately).
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Lightweight, faster than i expected
Cons: touchpad is not solid and has its quirks
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great looking laptop

This is by far one of the best looking laptops I have ever seen. It is light, thin, it boots up in about 12 sec, the audio is surprisingly good for a small laptop, the screen is bright, it has a backlit keyboard, the keyboard has a nice feel to it as well as the touchpad. I get about 7 hours for the battery life. Sadly they did not fix the wifi problem and if I stand so much as 30 feet away from the router in my house the signal is gone. It is an expensive laptop and I would only recommend it if you have the money, and the appearance and weight is a very important feature in the laptop you purchase. Some other down sides is it only had 70 GB free once I got it and it attracts finger prints like a magnet, I find myself always having to wipe it clean.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, ssd, usb 3, design/looks, weight/thin, backlit keyboard
Cons: wifi, small ssd, bloatware installed in it, fingerprint magnet, cost
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Buy

I really love this computer so far, Coming from a 17'' to this has been great. i love the compact size and 2.88lbs weight. The 3 sec start up has been great for when i am jumping from classroom to classroom during a typical day in classes. the weight Makes it so much easier to carry with me at school and in general public. the battery life is good i can usually make a full day of browsing and procrastinating while in class with out plugging in. the biggest files i keep are pictures and i back everything up so the 125 gb hard drive is plenty enough for me. the speakers are okay, they are not going to blow you away but they are good enough to watch TV and movies on. I am still learning all the features of mouse pad, sometimes changing pages feature is glitchy but scrolling and moving around are superb. The price tag was a little more then some of the other laptops i was looking at but my key things was compact light weight and speed. and this beats anything else out there in those categories.
Sadly my biggest complaint is the power cord! The dc adapter is loose when in the computer and sometimes slips out when trying to charge. plus the charger is huge when trying to find a plug in to share with others sometimes gets difficult. along with the cord constantly getting twisted every time i try to unwrap it and plug in. I know it can be turned off but the auto adjust screen light takes a little getting use to. sometimes sitting in dark classrooms and the professor changes the slide will make the screen change brightness. i just realized that i have a few dead pixels in my screen (less then 2 months in) so i will let you know how service is on the warranty!
Over all i really like this computer. I get asked "what laptop is that" all the time and i love it. people's faces are great to watch when i say that it is a Samsung and NOT a MAC BOOK AIR!
Pros: Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: power cord/ dc plug in
