Samsung Has done it again...they thought of everything when they made this computer. Wonderful picture. this computer is fast!!!.. has a HDMI port on it to connect it to a HDTV (which i am connecting it to my Samsung 3D HDTV to play video games)...If u want a computer that will allow u to do just about everything and at a wonderful price, then look no further and get one today!!! I have never looked back when i got this laptop
Could not find dvd features (can it play blu-ray or burn dl?). Would be great to note that this does not have a glossy screen. Performance, so far, meets expectations. Really easy to revert system to earlier/first state.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great value for your buck. Has all the must need features.
The problem in today's world is finding that ultra portable laptop, that has style. The Samsung Series 3 13.3" is a perfect fit for my "on-the-go" lifestyle, from school, to my own personal business it's perfect. It doesn't lack in features or performance, it delivers. I would highly recommend this product to the "on-the-go" lifestyles.
I looked hard for a notebook/laptop/minibook that could fill all the daily needs for me when mobile. I found this notebook at an online store, with not a single review or anywhere else for that matter.
I went by the specs offered as well as a visit to the Samsung.com website for further reviews on the product, all to no luck.
After comparing it side by side with other choices on the market, this notebook kept leading each place I looked on. All the features that I wanted were there in this well designed and great value notebook.
The buy was hard to make on so little feedback from actual users, and I was expecting to compromise about 1/4 of what I needed from the "specs". I was not let down by Samsung! This notebook is exactly as described word by word in the specs sheet table.
Fast can't even begin to describe how quick it performs, even on power up (a section where all systems seem to fail on real world test), not to even mention that the 3 seconds ON from sleep is LESS than the actual real world 3 seconds I experienced.
The DVD-RW was unexpected as the description on the store site fails to account for, as well as listing Windows 7 Professional when the Home Premium version is the one that's loaded.
The graphics are outstandingly vivid in color, better than my LCD HDTV!!! The speed is real and did I mention FAST?
I only gave it 4 stars as the plastic material on the case was... Too plastic? But in honesty it's also durable and somewhat flexible where it needs to be. From the specs and descriptions I was thinking more of a brushed aluminum housing or so, but it's still ok for the looks.
The speaker's high quality sound is a nice thing to have, as all other mobile systems I had purchased before sounded like speakers made with tin cans...
The screen's glare is a bit too high, but when you're watching video this is hardly noticed or better said, it renders a magnificent live and vivid color.
This is one of the best values for the money to be had!
