Samsung's NC20 is a good choice if you need its high-resolution screen. This gives plenty of room for working on large documents or using a couple of programs simultaneously.

The large screen cuts battery life a little compared to some other netbooks, but it's still impressive and the extra resolution and larger keyboard are helpful for prolonged use. VIA's Nano CPU performs quite well and overall the laptop is well thought out and constructed, although the trackpad could be better.

In a market populated by shrinky-dink netbooks with low-res displays for under 400 bucks, hulking bottom-feeder laptops for $750 with severely compromised mobility, and svelte ultraportables hovering near the daunting two-grand mark, the Samsung NC20 is a revelation. The formula Samsung has settled on for this system works very well indeed; it's just what I've wanted to see since netbooks promised us affordable ultraportability but forced a few too many compromises.

The NC20 isn’t a strong enough contender to be your sole computer, but if you’re looking for a machine that’s got enough juice to handle most common tasks you’d associate with an ultraportable notebook, then it’s a good choice.

The Samsung NC20 is a good Netbook that is comfortable, light and has a good battery life - the three fundamental qualities that many of us seek. Its Via Nano processor can totally stand against Intel's 1.6Ghz single-core Atom and its hard disk is even faster than many (more expensive) laptops that we tried before.

So the Samsung NC20 is a decent netbook with solid performance. But why bother with a netbook, when you can get a full-featured laptop that's a little heavier but costs less? If you're hell-bent on a 12in screen, consider Lenovo's IdeaPad S12 (an nVidia Ion-based version is due out soon) or HP's pricier - and more potent - Pavilion dv2.

Despite a slightly bloated price tag, the Samsung NC20 (21GBK) is the only netbook that has both a 12-inch widescreen and a full-size keyboard.

The Samsung NC20 breaks from the rest of the netbook ranks with the inclusion of a 12.1 inch screen. Machines with smaller screens may ﬁt more happily in the bottom of a record bag, but if you actually want to use it regularly the bigger screen is the way to go.

It's not perfect, but six-hour battery life, fine performance and a superb display make Samsung's grown-up netbook a force to be reckoned with.

This affordable 12-inch netbook provides comparable performance to the 10-inch competition while boasting a larger screen and keyboard for a more comfortable mobile computing experience.

The 12-inch Samsung NC20 holds its own in the first Netbook showdown between Via's new Nano CPU and Intel's popular Atom.

The NC20’s excellent keyboard, larger screen, and long battery life make it the perfect notebook for long stints of heavy typing. Single-application performance ranges from good to excellent, though multitaskers will want to stick with an Atom–based netbook.

Notebookcheck‘s review Edit Like Unlike

The NC20, the successor to the popular NC10, has been recently released by the Korean giant, Samsung. The netbook has a 12 inch display and uses, contrary to the general trend, a CPU and a graphics chip from VIA. In this review, we will compare the Nano U2250 processor from VIA to the dominating Intel Atom chip, and give an in-depth evaluation of the NC20.
