Review Samsung X60 Pro Notebook

 

Quadratic. Handy. Good? The Samsung X60 attracts by its angular a ...

Very good Workmanship, Robust Case out of magnesium, Low weight, User-friendly order of interfaces, Keyboard comfortable in use, Good stability to the vantage point, Good performance, Low noise emissions, Good sound of the speakers

Wobbeling battery, Display's low brightness and illumination, Increased surface temperature at the top side, Average battery runtime

The magnesium alloy of the X60's case does not only ensure a good flexural rigidity, is also ensures that the temperature emissions are distributed more or less evenly over the whole surface. Interestingly enough the maximum temperature of the X60...

Samsung NP-X60-plus Core 2 Duo Notebook Review

 

Overall, I have been very satisfied with the X60 which offers a relatively large display within a slim body and relatively light weight. While the battery life (maximum 3 hours) is not generous, it has been enough for my needs. I do a reasonable amount...

A lightweight (just over 2.5kg / 5.5lb) 15.4” notebook ; Solid and rigid construction ; High quality and high resolution display ; Good audio volume and quality ; The hard disk stays cool ; PC Card slot for backwards compatibility

The standard 6 cell battery running time is less than 3 hours at light load ; More fan activity than the previous X60 (may be attributable to the more powerful GPU) ; The power supply is excessively heavy for a lightweight notebook ; The touchpad could...

Once I had adjusted the display dpi setting and enabled ClearType everything became much clearer. The change in text quality is similar to the jump from 150 dpi dot matrix to 300dpi inkjet or laser printers

The WSXGA screen has a resolution of 1680 x 1050 pixels

Impressive specification

Disappointing battery life

You'll find Bluetooth for wireless connectivity, and a 6-in-1 card reader lets you back up files on a variety of different formats

Samsung X60 laptop review

 

Samsung is something of a dark horse in the notebook world. As one of the largest component manufacturers in the world, it produces over 90% of the parts for its own machines, which means it can offer something a little more special than the average...

Dual-core, great screen

Average battery life

For the price, it’s a well-specified and good all-round notebook

This isn't a particularly cheap laptop, but the rather high price buys you a premium mix of ingredients.

The Samsung NP-X60 is sleek, powerful and stylish. If you're looking for something a bit different from the average Dell laptop, this is well worth a look.

Pack up your PC and ship it to skipsville; the Samsung X60's slick styling is ripe for desktop invasion

High-quality finish. Powerful machine with 100GB hard drive and 15.4in screen.

Expensive. Will kick your PC from its nest.
