Samsung NC10 10-2-Inch Netbook - A Quick Review
By Tim Pecunia
The design of the Samsung NC10 10.2″ netbook will have to be one of its biggest selling points. It was love at first sight the moment I laid eyes on it. Its covers have a glossy finish to it that reminds me of a piano’s finishing. Among the many models of netbook that I have considered purchasing, I must say that the NC10 has the most contemporary and ‘modern’ feel to it.
For such a small laptop it carries a mean punch. It has a powerful 1.6 GHz Intel Atom processor that works like a dream, enabling the use of multiple programs at once (as much as a netbook can handle). The touch-pad is a little small, but it is sufficient for light navigation needs. If you need to use the mouse pad often for your work, you can always plug in a mouse for greater maneuverability.
Thanks to the power efficient Atom processor and the netbook’s small size, the Samsung NC10 has a very impressive battery life. On average use, it can last up to 7 hours on a single charge. I was able to play about 3 movies on it without plugging in the power point.
The only shortcoming I can imagine is the 10.4-inch screen that may prove a wee bit small for watching videos. But then again, it is a netbook after all. Any bigger and it would be just another ordinary laptop. If you need a ‘larger’ display, you can always set the start bar to ‘auto-hide’ mode where you can gain approximately ½ an inch of extra screen space. The Samsung NC10 also has a 1.3 Mega Pixel webcam that is great for video conferencing and recording videos.
