Hi i just bought this model last week.
-Its design is superb, rclxms.gif
-really thin
- full metal body
-Spec is good compared to other intel ultras
-and the speaker is really loud. drool.gif

I bought it from low yat and the price is around 1700-1800 but you can get it even lower if you're good bargainer.


But sadly I have a problem with my notebook. icon_question.gif The battery couldn't be charged more than 79-80% max even if i charge more than 8 hours.

-Does anyone xperiencing this problem too? I've requested for cyber service repair but it's taking like forever for them to reply...

^check the samsung application, most likely activated the battery protection, which limit the charge to 80%.

Yeah problem solved. The settings called battery life extender. Overall i'm satisfied with this notebook. With its aluminium body and slim size, it's very portable.

But from what i read, Samsung n AMD got alot of flak and negative reviews for the notebook and processor. Revwers said that it does not stand toe-to-toe with intel. But from the price, it seems like a good buy.
