A well designed desktop replacement, but it isn't great value at this price

Samsung RC710 S02 laptop

 

A large-screen laptop computer that works well as a ‘desktop replacement'

Great screen and performance; excellent keyboard

Heavy; poor battery life

A great screen and decent performance make this not-very-portable ‘laptop' a good deal

Samsung RC710 review

 

The 17.3-inch Samsung RC710 offers a decent processor, screen and keyboard, but its boring design and sub-par gaming performance limit its appeal as an all-round entertainment laptop.

Comfortable keyboard ; Bright screen ; Decent performance

Not a good option for gaming ; Poor battery life ; Dull design

The Samsung RC710 is pretty average. It offers a good screen and keyboard, and its processor is quite fast. But its design is boring and its gaming performance is fairly poor, which limits its appeal as an all-round entertainment machine.

I purchased this laptop with great anticipation, but found it lacking in that it had obviously not gone through a screening process to check all functions. If it had, the test system would have found that the chip drivers associated with powering the...
