The decisive selling point:
The price! About half a year I have been looking for an Ultrabook in this price range; None. As before, one searches in vain for alternatives. It should replace my old notebook to save weight and space and to provide significantly longer battery life. These conditions are all met: The Samsung is built incredibly low and light, the surfaces are beautiful to look at and the battery lasts me usually from 5 to 6 hours. Processing of keyboard and touchpad are both neat and is very pleasant to use.
Usage:
I use it in everyday life and in the university, read the News, Browsing the Internet, write texts (MS Office), edit images (Photoshop CS5), create presentations and present ... All these tasks handled the Samsung Series 5 with ease. It is no problem to execute all applications simultaneously. The matte display hardly reflects really, delivers crisp text, thus providing what I had hoped for.
BUT: Now the point which has led to the withdrawal of a star:
For an all-rounder, it is not, admittedly! Anyone looking for an all-rounder, who not only work can, but also provides fun is here at the wrong address. When it comes to multimedia, there namely some deductions:
- The display provides generally very pale, little intense colors.
- The display is further innately very bluish (but can be used in Windows Console post).
- The graphics performance is not sufficient for complex games (I have 11 tested for test purposes FIFA, which even at low settings barely runs smoothly (Windows Experience Index Desktop Graphics Performance: 4.4 and thus lowest subscore) However, the sound is decent-überdurschnittlich for a notebook. ,
I could not ignore completely about and therefore subtract a star because me these things but are personally absolutely not important are my needs more than met.
Conclusion:
You are looking for a lightweight, small and robust-featured notebook at a low price, for everyday life, in order to do word processing, presentations and images, which thereby provides long battery life and, moreover, look nice? Then the Samsung is just the ticket! Strong buy recommendation!
At this price, it is in my opinion absolutely out of competition.
Games, photo and video fans prefer to use a better multimedia suitable notebook.
EXTRA for all who would like more memory:
For nearly 23 there is an extra 4GB RAM:
The installation is very easy. Simply open the service door with a screw, installed RAM, service flap, finished!
