Samsung N230 Pro Reviews

expertreviews‘s review Edit

A smart, thin netbook with an outstanding battery life, but the dull screen lets the side down, and there are other, better netbooks that cost less.

ITreviews‘s review Edit

A decent netbook needs long battery life, a well-designed keyboard and low price-tag. Samsung certainly succeeds in terms of keyboard and battery, although the price tag of £349 is on the high side. However, you're always going to pay a bit more for a stylish and well thought-out design, and in our minds it's worth the extra money. Although the N230 thoroughly deserves its Recommended award, prospective buyers may do well to hold off for a few weeks until judgement is passed on the new wave of dual-core Atom N550 netbooks.

Despite the premium it demands, Samsung's N230 suffers from a slightly sub-par screen and its keyboard is average at best. However, in most other regards it's a good effort, with innovative software, stylish design and class-leading battery life going some way towards justifying the outlay.

TechRadar UK‘s review Edit

While the N230 falls short of its promised 14-hour battery life, there's no denying the quality on offer. With more than ten hours of mobility, a great keyboard and an equally usable screen, this is a fantastic netbook for the frequent traveller and one that's very easy to recommend.

Notebookcheck‘s review Edit

Netbook fans will be able to see past the low performance, typical for Atom processors, and the limited range of ports. However the poor run times from the three-cell (33 Wh) battery will be viewed more critically by some. You can surf the web for up to four hours, but it does not come close the the maximum run times specified by Samsung. Help is at hand in the form of a six-cell lithium ion battery with a 5,900 mAh capacity (lasting up to 13 hours according to Samsung). This should be available as an optional accessory.
