Samsung R510 review

It's fairly bulky, but, with a 15.4-inch screen and decent performance, the stylish and relatively inexpensive Samsung R510 is well worth a look, whether you're seeking a laptop for business or leisure use

Stylish looks ; Decent performance ; Affordable ; Integrated webcam

Short on USB ports ; Relatively bulky and heavy

Samsung doesn't make a claim for the life of the six-cell li-ion battery. To test it, we fully charged the battery and chose the 'power saver' plan. Then we played DVDs continuously until the laptop expired, which turned out to be after 2 hours and 34...

Samsung's 15.4in. R510 might not be an automatic choice for business use, but it could fit the bill if you need to combine work and leisure on a stylish yet affordable notebook.

Samsung R510 review

If you're looking for a laptop that you can use for long periods away from the mains, then look no further than this indefatigable Samsung R510.

The Samsung R510 is a decent laptop with amazing battery life, but if you're prepared to take a minor hit on performance, you could get the Acer Aspire 5920 for significantly less outlay.

Samsung R510 15.4in Notebook

Better than its recent predecessor in every way, but good enough?

Samsung has produced an excellent mid-range notebook in the R510-FAA4UK, with a simple yet nice design and some great features for a very affordable price. But though it is a bargain, it's not necessarily the only or best one, and you'll want to check...

Samsung NP-R510

The Samsung R510 is an able performer with a classy looking design. It comes with a healthy set of features, for the asking price.

Build quality ; HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet ; Good screen brightness

Price

The Samsung NP-R510 is an able performer with a WorldBench score of 81. Is fairly similar in hardware configuration to the Dell Inspiron 15 and our winner, the Acer Aspire 5738. It's a budget laptop with good performance.
