The same technical specifications (except for HD Ready) could already impress with the Acer Aspire One D255 (N550). The Netbook competitor delivered a battery life of 6.35 hours (WLAN test) despite two Atom cores. Can Samsung keep up?
Case
Silver-gray lid
Display from the side
Chassis from the sideSamsung wants to sell more than a plastic box with a mainboard. The manufacturer therefore touts a "unique case with luxurious colors". And on top of this, the "dynamic design [...] provides you with a positive attitude", according to the product web page.
Backed by so much marketing wording, the 10.1 inch Netbook with a curvy style is now in front of us. Without question, no manufacturer has so far been bold enough to produce such a shark-design. Even the 15.6 inch Notebook SF510 was given the shark look.
The look is a matter of taste, but we also discovered a practical use for both of the raised edges on the left and right sides of the keyboard. When lifting or holding the device, we automatically grab it with the thumb over the swung edge. This provides a perfect holding area, without pressing any buttons.
The base unit is very thin at the front around the palm resting area, which time and again surprises when lifting. In return the rear is noticeably thicker due to the overhanging battery. Despite the firm base of the keyboard and firm palm resting area, the chassis construction is not as rigid anymore as that of the Samsung N220 or the N230 (premium models). With both hands the base unit can be bent within limits.
The deeply hung hinges sit firmly on the base unit. They hold the lid firmly and therefore don't tend to allow the display to teeter (both hands required to open). The good rigidity of the lid construction is a further advantage. The maximum opening angle is not especially big though at 130 degrees.
