Samsung Q1EX-71G - Review of the Samsung Q1EX-71G

Sturdy, lightweight design, Responsive 7-inch touchscreen, Dock has excellent keyboard, Very good speakers

Short battery life with standard battery, Lacks Webcam on front of device, Poor handwriting recognition, Slow boot time

Samsung also includes a voice-recording utility with the device, which lets you capture audio in WMA or WAV format. Even with the record volume set to 100 percent, the playback volume was a bit faint (but understandably so). You might have trouble...

Samsung Q1 UMPC and Accessories Reviewed

If we gently ease Apple into an out-of-mind drawer then it becomes fair to say that the award for most anticipated hardware of the year goes to the UMPC, March's Origami campaign for which persuaded some, at least momentarily, that Microsoft was hip....

Most reviewers have spit the majority of their bile at the UMPCs lack of physical keyboard. Instead users have a variety of touchscreen-based methods. Aside from handwriting recognition, which can cope with a surprising degree of scrawl thanks to...

Samsung UMPC Q1EX Review

We used this screen to run software that provides our client with a touch-screen interface to control their home automation systems (lighting, shades, HVAC, audio/video). Definitely need the extended life battery, and with the slightly larger battery,...

Consumer review by: Bibliophile (amazon.com)

Major Disappointment. Texting input is almost impossible.

1. INPUT problem: Unlike Toshiba or Motioncomputing where the tablet is sensitive only to the tip of a digital pen, Samsung tablet is like a pocket PC and responsive to all touches. The consequence is operational difficulties. For example, when...

Consumer review by: Dale Brown (amazon.com)

If you want small, the Q1EX is it

PROS: Small size, bright display, lightweight, SDHC card slot CONS: Not very fast, no Web cam, funky stylus storage I purchased a Samsung Q1EX with 2 GB RAM, 1.2 GHz VIA Nano processor, Windows XP, and 32 GB solid-state hard drive (not from Amazon,...

Samsung Q1 Ultra (quick) review

A brief look at the Samsung Q1 Ultra I had my hands on a Samsung Q1 ultra for a couple of days earlier this month and I thought I?d share my impressions. I'm sure that most of you will have seen Matt's Q1 Ultra unboxing video so here...

The revelation for me was the handwriting input and I can see myself using this or something similar in meetings notes taking would be a breeze and so much better than clogging your shelves with notebooks
