Samsung RV720 17in Core i3 notebook

 

Review Desktop replacement laptops are a genre of portable computer apparently intent on chuntering on forever without ever truly succeeding or dying. By nature, they tend not to be petite, and Samsung's RV720 is no exception.

The Samsung RV720 is a very capable machine, and those looking for a general purpose PC to use at home won't do much better for the money. There's not a spectacular amount of performance, but it will handle most jobs including creative tasks such as...

Samsung Big Notebook RV720 : Samsung RV720 Notebook Computer

 

Finally I think some manufacturers are listening when people moan about the black surrounds showing fingermarks. The solution is to simply remove the black, on this only the base and the keyboard area are the dreaded black.

The processor is Intel Core i3 2310M, it comes with 4GB of RAM and 674GB hard disk spread over ‘C’ and ‘D’. The Windows Experience score is 4.7 made up of Processor 6.4, Memory 5.9, Graphics 4.7, Gaming Graphics 6.0 and Hard Disc 5.9. I found the...

Just the job

 

I did a lot of research (having only a basic knowledge of specs) and this is certainly the best spec I could find for the money (With Samsung cashback offer). There are a lot of features that I haven't tried yet but I bought it for a couple of specific...

A nice laptop

 

I originally went for an 15.6" Asus on the recommendation of my son who had had one for some time and was happy. However, I returned it to the seller as the keyboard sprung up and down when typing. I then read that laptops were gradually replacing desk...

speedy

 

What a superb laptop. My old one was so slow it was hard work. With 4 gig of ram you can find anything on the computer in seconds, and with 750 gig hard drive you must surely never fill it. Well done Samsung.
