+ Boot up Windows 8 is very fast, although the notebook has no SSD cache and no SSD drive
+ Performance is awesome, everything runs smoothly (have a few unnecessary things uninstalled)
+ Battery life in Wi-Lanmodus with surfing and parallel Office, good 4 hours ie one comes without WiFi and in a darkened display safely only with office work to 6 hours
+ Quality: The aluminum housing is not a unibody, under the notebook is also plastic. But that does not, everything is stable, nothing creaks and the display hinges are difficult to enter. The keyboard surface can be difficult to press, and therefore everything is processed fine.
+ Noble look due to cool aluminum look
+ Display brightness is about 200 nit not outstanding, but overall still good and bright enough good, especially when compared with many other models
0 Display resolution: HD 15.6 inch is of course not as sharp as Full HD, which is also due to the anti-glare display, but you can also work at the window and still see everything. Sharp enough, more is always clear, but that's a price issue
0 Windows 8! While it puts the fastest startup of all Windows operating systems back, but it's still getting used to: While you can change to the "old" desktop environment, but one occasionally comes by mistake in the corner on the tile menu.
By enormously potent hardware (I'm working with the Adobe Creative Suite, so far without problems), the good workmanship and the good Samsung Support (the ideal vendor support, there is not, but Samsung is one of the brighter under the black sheep) I can recommend this laptop definitely.
Really bad has nothing to do with upgrading to Windows 8.1. are expected to solve problems some Windows 8.
Overall: A very potent notebook, with its power everything I want to do work, without jerking.
Therefore, a strong buy recommendation. Since in these facilities (8 instead of 6 GB RAM, 1000 GB instead of 750 GB HDD) is not available everywhere, you have to just look at the price. It is partly sold for about 800 euros. I myself have 699, - paid and it is well worth it.
