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 CLX2160 colour laser printer

Advantages: easy to use, low cost, cheap to run.
Disadvantages: none

...After purchasing a Samsung ML-1610 black laser printer for £50 a couple of years ago, we decided that as soon as the colour laser printers came down in price, we would get one of those. We also wanted a multi-function printer, to replace the multi-function inkjet printer that we had. If it could have a fax as well, then all well and good. After keeping an eye on prices for a while, I was searching one day and came across the Samsung CLX-2160 multi-function colour laser printer. WHAT DOES IT DO? Well, it is a copier, printer, scanner. It prints in black and colour. It prints up to 16 pages per minute in black and up to 4 ppm in colour. The copying peed is up to 16 ppm in black and up to 4 ppm in colour. Described as "The world's smallest color multifunctional printer". It is ideal for small office or home office use...

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...

An expert toner

Advantages: Gentle
Disadvantages: None for me

...Boots expert sensitive toner I like the Boots expert range and find they suit my skin and cause no nasty reactions, so when this was on special offer at half price I naturally bought it. The Hypoallergenic toner has been specially formulated for sensitive skin and contains aloe vera to soothe the skin. It will apparently sweep away the last traces of make up so that skin is clean and ready for moisturising. It is frangrance and lanolin free and dermatologically tested so i am ready for something very gentle as promised. PRODUCT AND PACKAGING... The lotion comes in a 200ml plastic bottle which like all of the Boots Expert range is quite simple and not at all fancy with the bottle being clear and instructions and information on the back of the bottle. The screw on/off lid reveals the toner which As expected, is completely...

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...

Review of Samsung NC10

Never mind, Digitals comes cheap with Samsung

Advantages: Read the review
Disadvantages: Mostly but the price

...If I remember correctly of all the cameras that I have reviewed here, this possibly is the cheapest so far. In fact the main idea was to have a first hand experience of Samsung range of cameras and I thought it prudent to try the cheapest possible available in Samsung array of cameras. Well the experience is very close to disaster. Design: Probably its only positive point is its price, that probably is about all. If you look at the design it does look cheap, drab and dumb to say the least. In fact the ES55 looks just that better with its very quaggy aluminium casing, this one comes with a forlorn drab plastic wrapping which probably will make the least fashionables talk about fashion. Lets have a look at the technical specs of the Samsung ES15: #Maximum resolution 10.2 megapixel #3x optical zoom lens #AA alkaline...

Samsung ML-1520 Monochrome Laser Printer

Advantages: Fast printing and easy set-up.
Disadvantages: Quality suffers when large quantity is printed at once.

...I bought this printer mainly because of it's low cost but also because I liked very much it's predecessor, the ML-1510, which my girlfriend owns. It's cheap and very easy to set up. If anyone owns a ML-1510 and thinking of upgrading to the ML-1520, I don't think there's much point. They are pretty much identical in terms of its functionality, but the ML-1520 is more square-ish and is the standard grey colour (more 'manly' if you like). Personally I like the ML-1510 better in terms of looks and is slightly smaller and lighter. The pros. The quality of print (especially if printing text only) is superb, even on the starter toner that's supplied with the printer. I have not printed any photos so I can't really comment on that but I have tried printing road maps from the internet. Again the quality is great and I can clearly nake out...

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...

Samsung Surprisingly make Quality Laser Printers

Advantages: Small, Very Fast, Very cheap
Disadvantages: Quite an old model

...amazingly simple. I was quite amazed at the simplicity when I bought this printer. The ink cartridges can be found for about £35, but remember, it is a laser printer. Just on a final note, I'd like to amaze ya. The cost of the ink cartridges seem expensive to me, but with one cartridge, the printer will print 2500 pages. Even better, when the toner mode is on, to save ink, the printer will print 3500 pages!!! Great printer, great Samsung, Sam has sung, let us hear your comments ......

Samsung ML 1510 - laser printing for the home

Advantages: Very compact, fast speeds, excellent quality, Cheap
Disadvantages: Can you think of any!?

...-------------------- Laser printers use toners as opposed to catridges, its simply a powder based printing method as opposed to water based inks. Toner for the ML 1510 cost about £20 each and these will print well in excess of 5,000 pages each. You can also use the samsung toner saving application which supposedly reduces toner usage by up to 40%. But such modes really only be applicable to businesses, as im sure 5,000 print outs will be well enough for home use, you'll find yourself replacing the toner catridge little more than once a year. Another thing to consider with laser printers, is the drum unit. Drums need to be replaced every 20,000 or so pages, and cost more than the printer itself in some circumstances. I've never had to buy a new drum for the samsung yet however you can expect them to be in the £30 - £50 price range. ---------- Design...
