...R710==
This is the Samsung R710, it combines good looks, with really good features in order to make a very nice laptop for various media uses.
Its made by Samsung, they don?t really make that many laptops however there products are know not only for quality but also for how cool they look, many of their electrical ranges are so popular just for how they look and this laptop is no different.
The laptop is the just the same old basic laptop shape ... ...super bright gloss technology that Samsung have built into there screens means that every thing appears just that bit sharper and glossier.
As you would expect with such a big screen, the laptop must be quite big. And of course it is. Its almost 40 cm across, this is about 10 cm longer than most.

MEMORY and GRAPHICS - Its strengths are surely the huge memory-RAM and the fast processor- to be noted its a 3MB cache core2 duo processor. Looking up the graphic card specifications -its not too great and the very new games which are very demanding may not work smooth and most direct x 10 games will work only in ...

Advantages: great laptop when working! Disadvantages: poor aftersales
...went dead and on contacting Samsung via email (using my desktop) was told that it was a common known problem. This statement was later denied by Samsung. After paying 230euros to return it I had my money back and decided to opt for a company without known problems that hadn't been fixed.
