Samsung JA02 review: Samsung JA02

 

Matte screen; roomy keyboard and touch pad; helpful support tools.

More expensive than it should be; desktop-clogging bloatware.

Not as Advertised

 

If you look at the specs they don't even mention the CPU. If you read the promo material you'd think it comes with an i5 but how many cores? Well, unless Windoze Device Manager is confused, the unit sitting on my desk has an i3 quad core CPU. I don't...
