VERY eye Catching Item
on September 25, 2011
Posted by: ManfromNOHO
I really like this item, its a good design. Even slimmer then the MacPro Air.
The only complaint I have is the 128 GB SSD drive. It comes with only 99GB and another 20GB is already taken from pre-loaded software. So you only end up with 79GB of space to use for yourself.
Pros: Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: small ssd drive, speakers are low

Excellent, except battery life, touchy touchpad
on January 18, 2012
Posted by: RickInRedmond
There is a lot to love about this unit, especially the light weight. I pick up one of my other laptops and, well, they are really heavy in comparison.
The battery life is a disappointment, probably 3.5 hours max on average. Also, the touchpad is extremely sensitive to the point where I need to disable it frequently (Fn+F5). The case exterior also shows fingerprints easily. I find that I buff it frequently with the included cloth. The speakers lack bass; very "bright" sound.
Great Perf. It wakes up in about 3 seconds. Reboots in under a minute. Very nice keyboard. The screen is really bright and easy to read.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Samsung N9 series Rocks
on April 4, 2012
Posted by: mcompson
Expertise:Expert
Wonderfully solid product that is lightweight. Would benefit from a universal connector for the built-in NIC card and a longer battery life. An additional USB port would be wonderful too but I understand about trade-off's. Love the backlit KB!
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, backlight awesome
Cons: 1 more usb port, better battery life, more generic interface cord for hard connect to ne
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beautiful, lightweight, portable, but a bit shy.

Expertise:Expert
The computer is sleek, beautiful, light and amazing. Everyone who sees it is jealous. My only issue is the short reach of the wifi antenna, which I hope is better on the next model. I love the backlit keyboard and the Control Center utility.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, backlit keyboard
Cons: expensive, wifi reception is weak
I would recommend this to a friend!

Super Hardware, dissapointing Windows 8
on December 17, 2012
Posted by: cosy1234

Expertise:Intermediate
This well formed smartbook is really a pleasure-
to hold in a hand, unfold and surf with it
to work wherever you are.
So lite, I take it like a couple of sheets in my working notes
( the series 9 has same format as worldwide paper sheet standard A4- thats great!)
Battery time is quite ok
Excellent Display, surprising quality of sound, excellent keyboard

Dissapointing :
1) Windows 8 is a poor and sticky version, essential functions are hidden or no more existant. the playground tiles are for kiddies but not for serious users
2) Bluetooth has some driver or HW- problems and is not really working it's an issue
3) The Mousepad is not as good as it seems. The sensibility waves with electrostatic charge or humidity or whatever else and makes usage really dificult. left mouseclick is sometime a lucky winner sometime it works on first try: not good enought to work with.
4) Really really bad are the connectors: no standard, adapters not avalable at the local store: it is for nothing. Specially I miss a standard VGA port or probably a Standard DVI Port. It is really bad to not be able at this time to connect my Samsung Series 9 to a Beamer....

Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, slim nice beauty case, hitech feeling, excellent display, excellent keyboard, really good battery lifetime, sufficient speed / power
Cons: unprecise mousepad, bad right mouse klick, bad proprietary interface for vga, not working bluetooth
I would recommend this to a friend!
