Snap Happy Samsung!

Advantages: Great camera at a great price.
Disadvantages: None at the price, you get a great item for what you pay!

...I bought this camera in ASDA at the incredible price of £75 in a gorgeous chrome silver colour (pictured). I am probably one of the most indecisive shoppers around, so when it came to buying a digital camera, I was thoroughly confused by the choice and newly released technology, meaning every week a new camera with more mega pixels and better zoom and a toaster built in was released! This certainly does not making chosing easy! Well, thanks to the advice of the very helpful assistant in ASDA, I was able to finally decide on the Samsung ES55 and have no regrets! Ok, so how do you chose the right camera for you? It's all about accepting there is SO much variety but making sure you know what you want, that way you can really trim down the choice. Also, pick a reliable brand and as I have been informed, Samsung are one of the best. I had...

Samsung but smaller

Advantages: Very compact and lightweight, excellent value for money, great design with brilliant screen
Disadvantages: No dvd drive but this is to save on weight and you can pick up an external one for reasonable

...Having previously had a laptop my wife recently decided to buy a new computer for herself as she felt she was not taking her laptop with her due to size and weight and so decided to opt to pick up the Samsung NC10 netbook. So you may have noticed that this is a netbook and be wondering what this exactly means...a netbook is a smaller, lighter weight laptop that is simply designed to handle internet browsing, e-mail and office software. The question I was asked by my wife before she picked this little gadget up was would this be able to play games? The answer is yes but of a limited variety as this is not designed with the same level of specs in as a normal pc or laptop (you would also need to purchase a cd or dvd drive for if you are looking at playing games that use a cd). Now down to the actual netbook itself...the Samsung is...

Samsung's Neat Little Netbook

Advantages: Good performance, Good connectivity options, Good webcam, 160GB HDD, Upgradeable
Disadvantages: Not very good accessories, Picks up Fingerprints, Weird button under touchpad

...After my white Asus Eee PC 1000H got stolen, I decided to replace it with a black Samsung NC10. The Asus and this Samsung are what is known as a netbook. It?s sort of a small, low cost laptop to let you surf the net, while you?re out and about. I bought it off Dixons.co.uk for £322 in December 2009 (had a 5% off coupon) but it?s going for around £310 at the moment in most places. CHOICES The NC10 is Samsung's first stab at the netbook market and they?ve done a blinding job of it. I believe it even won an award for it. The NC10 comes in three flavours, those being black, blue and white. I chose the black as it looks prettier. The white one also looks great but I figured that it would start to pick up dirt and go a bit black, especially the keyboard and touchpad. The white version has a matte lid so doesn't pick up...

Samsung NC10 Review

Advantages: Good battery life, nice screen, near enough a full size keyboard
Disadvantages: small-ish trackpad

...I recieved this netbook for christmas and all i can say is 'wow'! My background with computers is vast having built many and installed multiple operating systems on each, however i have never owned a laptop. Therefore i was a little dubious about some of the things such as keyboard size, processing power and battery life. I was looking for a laptop which is very small in physical size while packing a punch so it could still carry out multiple tasks. Buying a full size (15.4") laptop seemed a bit pointlesss as i have two tower pc's which are my main machines, so this was just to be about casual surfing/ reading emails/ browsing while on the move. The Samsung NC10 is in my view one of the very best netbooks out there, the keyboard is just shy of being full size so no cramped typing (this review was written on it) Combine this...

Samsung hits the netbook world for 6

Advantages: sturdy, reliable, quite nippy for a netbook, relativley cheap
Disadvantages: sound, no ssd option, still can't beat the aspire one

...With the netbook market already saturated to the point of that resembling a cat's fur when thrown into a bath (with almost as much fur flying between the competitors), it would seem that we don't need yet another standard netbook joining the ranks. However the samsung NC10 has proven to be a great addition to the market, and managed to undercut nearly all of their major competitors, even if it can't beat the acer aspire one. The NC10 is the usual netbook affair with regards to specs, it is fitted with the defacto standard intel atom, 160GB HDD and 1GB memory, this provides decent performance for all your web application needs and some circa 1999 gaming (no-one buys one for gaming anyway, but you've always got to at least try). It really isn't anything special in this department, but all netbooks are pretty similar anyway. However the nc...

Review of Samsung NC10

Samsung NC10 Black netbook a lightweight and excellent netbook

Advantages: Great screen, excellent battery life,
Disadvantages: Poor speakers, personal headphones or additional speakers definitely help

...I bought my NC10 to replace my laptop which was just too heavy to be carrying to and from work everyday. I purchased my NC10 on a promotion weekend from a high street store beating online prices significantly. I was trying to avoid big bulky items to carry as I was on crutches at the time. Not recommended but straight out of box into my rucksack in the shop from which it was purchased. Didn't notice much weight difference in my bag at all. The Samsung NC10 has served me dilligently now being used more and more instead of my normal laptop as battery life is excellent. I use the NC10 round the house for coursework, work and even during my work lunch. The screen is bright and very easy to read, I primarily use the NC10 at home for surfing the net to shop and for music in the background. I have an extensive playlist on Spotify...

Orange network in general

Advantages: Great contracts on offer, good reception, good service
Disadvantages: Not consistent waiting times when phoning cust services - can wait a while at peak times

...of handsets on offer. The majority of these can be found on their website and are offered from a range of suppliers including Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Blackberry and LG, amongst others. Some are offered for free, depending on what contract you are on. Durkng peak times I have found the longest time I have been on hold for is 20 minutes but generally my calls have been answered withing 3/4 minutes. I have never had a language barrier problem with the customer service rep on the end of the phone and have found that generally my problems or queries have been answered sufficiently. Orange recently did charge something to my contract which I had not received and after one phone call it had been took off my bill and a good-will gesture credit added to my account which I was very pleased with. As said previously the most cost efficient...

Review of Orange

Samsung B3310 - but its pink!!

Advantages: Cheap, performs core functions well
Disadvantages: No data cable, location of memory card slot

...never use it!!. We decided to stay with Virgin Mobile although the phone was also available on the Orange, O2 and Vodaphone networks. In the box To be honest, there wasn't a great deal in the box at all, a lot less than I expected. Along with the phone there was a mains charger, instruction manual, warranty card and a set of headphones. It didn't actually dawn on me until a my wife wanted some music putting on her phone that there was no data cable provided. After doing a bit of research on the net, it appears that there is a data cable for this phone but it needs to be bought separately which I thought was a bit naughty of Samsung. The phone also comes without a CD as there is no additional software required for this phone which I think is actually a good thing as in my opinion, most people just want to move files to...

Review of Samsung B3310

The futures bright... the futures orange

Advantages: Great service, great offers and great coverage
Disadvantages: slightly pricey

...I have been with orange for many years and have found them to be quite a good service provider. I first pondered over the many different contracts that they had on offer, confusing myself in the process. I finally opted for the pay as you go option as, at the time, I only really needed the phone for receiving calls for work and this worked out to be the cheapest option. Over the years I have stuck with pay as you go, more because of trust and reliability than cost, simply changing my telephone and upgrading my SIM to keep up with the times. You can simply add credit to your phone by: A~) Pay point, found at most shops B~) Vouchers, bought at most shops Or C~) Cash machines, top up from your bank account. ** THE OFFERS** Orange PAYG has different pay packages for everyone. *Racoon: This a simple flat rate offer of 15...
