This Laptops give to us some advantages, like this :
1. This Samsung is AMAZING
This is my first ever review but this Samsung series 7 17.3" laptop is simply AMAZING in every way so I felt compelled to write this review. OK, I received it yesterday afternoon via UPS (wish amazon would offer FedEx as an option). My first impression was just how Beautiful and sleek it looked not to mention thin. It seems to be very sturdy and looks well built. Plus only about 1" thick and although its a 17" with the small border around the screen is almost feels like a 15 inch in my opinion. Just under 5lbs on the weight I believe.
I turned it on and the matte screen was very clear and detailed and Bright. I was a little leary about it being a matte screen as I never had one and hoped the screen wouldn't look too dark or unclear. Not an issue! Two things I Love about it is that it is full HD with a 1920x1080 screen rez/size. And secondly it has a lit keypad with an option on how bright you want it to be. - Excellent! Full HD and a lit keyboard are two important options...
2. Samsung Chronos Series 7
So, I just picked this bad boy up from B3st BVY. Couldn't wait for shipping as I'm on a military assignment. Going to jot down a review of the things that I like and a few things that stuck out to me. These will be in thought bubble format:
Painful to upgrade. Rather harrowing experience but there are guides online for the previous gen 17" that work well.
SSD upgrade a must. 1tb very slow.
Ivy Bridge + Keplar have lived up to their names. Very powerful, very energy efficient.
No room for RAM upgrade. Wish it had 4 slots.
Keplar GPU + intel 4000 make a really neat combo.
GPU does all modern games i've seen at med to high ( 1080p ) with some tweaking.
Very light for a 17".
Long battery life for a 17" ( 2 - 3 hours with med to heay use roughly )
Nice keyboard and backlight.
Very attractive case. Well put together.
Minimal flex in Display, considering it's a 17"...
Need more appointment... ?
Had great potential... but falls short due to critical/fatal flaws
Purchased this machine expecting Samsung quality, fell short due to FATAL flaws. The biggest deal breaker is the absolutely atrocious wireless N performance and stability. Since this is a laptop/notebook, wireless N is crucial to the machine; I cannot be expected to carry around an external wireless adapter or a very long Ethernet cord. The Wi-Fi would have random latency spikes and packet drops (can be seen if you run continuous ping test) when any continuous streaming activity was initiated (such as video streaming, and gaming). This would happen as soon as you are one wall or more away from the router (ASUS RT-N56U). The other devices in my household on Wireless N do not have this issue and are connected to the same router on the same band. In fact, the HP Envy 17 I purchased to replace the Samsung machine has the same Wireless card (Intel 6235) as the Samsung and it does not have this problem. Wireless G on the Samsung machine seems okay, but I paid for a Wireless N laptop...
