Cheapest Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - 6 Cell Battery


I am very excited as this is my first Netbook, and it's probably the best one that you could get in the market at present time. Samsung pretty much took the best features from different brands and makes of Netbooks, and cramped them into this one nice and tiny package.

Pros: The size and weight is great. Strap this into your backpack and you're ready to go. The power brick is tiny as well. If you're always travelling or on the road, but you don't want to lose touch with people over Skype or any IM engine, the in-built 1.3MP webcam and microphone work great! With 5-7hours of battery life, I think this is totally a deal breaker. The network adapter picks up any available Wi-fi signals really well. Bluetooth is also a bonus, considering this feature is absent on the european versions.

Cons: The touchpad is too small and takes a little more effort to get comfortable with it. It's quite responsive, and the single-button with a rocker in the middle works okay. The glossy coat on the surface of the outer casing is a finger print magnet. The white NC10 with matte finishing works much better IMHO.

As the other reviews have pointed out, as well as reviews on various computing web sites, the Samsung netbook is the probably the best choice out there. For me, the keyboard was the major decider: I can type on it as quickly and accurately as on my full-sized keyboard.

Unfortunately, the keyboard was also why I returned my beautiful little netbook (not easy, as I'd fallen in love with the little unit). After purchasing it, I read up a bit about nano silver -- the anti-bacterial coating on the Samsung keyboard. The silver particles are, like all nano particles, so small that they will readily enter the body through the skin. And some preliminary data suggest that these tiny bits of silver MAY be toxic to our immune (and other) systems. Check out Science News Web Edition for 11/30/08 - not enough data yet, but I'm not willing to take the risk. It's the MSI Wind for me!Get more detail about Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - 6 Cell Battery.
