Samsung RC510-S03

Keyboard layout ; Large & fast touchpad ; Low system noise & Silent Mode ; Low power consumption ; Matt display ; Good performance ; Practical Samsung tools ; Recovery data carriers

Partly bendable chassis ; Low contrast ; Few interfaces ; Poor 3D performance

An eSATA port or USB 3.0 would be perfect for movie fans. Quiet touchpad keys equipped with a larger key drop

Bright screen ; Lovely chiclet keyboard ; Core i3 ower ; Decent grahics erformance ; Classy design

Average battery life ; Low resolution screen ; Heavyweight construction

A great design, excellent keyboard and beautiful screen, but out-dated components make the RC510 hard to recommend.

Bright screen and quick graphics card. Numeric pad is a bonus. Finish is vey good and Samsung customer support is really good

Separated key board takes a bit of getting used to and some of the function indicators are a bit small (arrow keys). Speakers are a bit tinny but sound quality is good through head/ ear phones

Cheap and cheerful

No tilt adjustment and monitor is inclined slightly downwards so I have to have a book under the stand to make it easy to look at. Ther may be an electronic tilting asystem but I cannot figure it out and even so, it just does not look right
