Some customer reviews of Samsung NP-X360-AA01UK
Most helpful reviewsDavid, Surrey
- Good points:
- Very pleased with the laptop - like the SSD (applications open really quickly) , screen excellent (very bright too). Stays cool on the lap due to the ULV processor. Presentation of the laptop in its (shipping) box very nice and the data transfer lead from you old to new laptop very useful. Seperate DVD drive hasn't proved a problem in practice once your applications are installed. Watching DVDs are most impresive too with the screen. Battery has not run down yet, allways 3-4hrs of life after a few hours use, suspect with dim screen could get the 10 hrs easily using Office Apps.
- Bad points:
- Some confusion as to whether the DVD drive is a Lightscribe device which is unclear from the specifications published, apparantly the UK units are not (claim Samsung) however many websites state the NP-X360 is. The included slip cover could be improved - heavy seams on the stitching make getting the unit in a bit of a tussle. The SSDs are seens as C: & D:, not an issue but was unexpected (64Gb each).

Low Fan Noise, Long Battery Life, Stylish Design...
I have used about 10 laptops so far. This is the best computer among them.
I am very sensitive to noise. But this computer is very silent.
Actually, I hesistated to buy this laptop because of the price. But now, I am very satisfied with it. It's worthy more than that price. - Bad points:
- Expensive Price

Very light, excellent battery life makes it possible to leave the power supply behind without any worries and takes 'mobile computing' to another level. Screen viewing angle is not amazing but completely satisfactory and doesn't create any practical problem when using the laptop. I was not sure about the shiny screen but that hasn't bothered me at all either.
Great keyboard size and layout. I cant tell if the SSD is any faster than a normal HDD but it is VERY quiet, brilliant. - Bad points:
-
Not so powerful, but for me compensated by the size/weight/battery life. Have to pay alot more for something as light with more power, Viao's seem like the only real option for this.
Minor point is the maroon brushed metal section on the lid of the SSD version; black all over would be better, but it just meant I started customising it with stickers sooner.

Laptop Buyers GuideManufacturer's Description
The X360 is the ideal choice for technology and design oriented users who appreciate leading-edge performance, mobility and style. With its captivating craftsmanship, the X360’s durable magnesium alloy casing provides amazing strength and superior reliability coupled with enhanced ergonomics and premium styling.
lighter than air
The lightest notebook in its 33.8cm (13.3) class, weighing a miniscule 1.29Kg (including a SSD and a 6 cell battery), so you can carry less, but do more.
Intel® Centrino® 2 processor technology
The X360 features state of the art Intel® Centrino® 2 processor technology, which delivers unrivalled system performance, enhanced energy efficiency and advanced connectivity to keep you working longer.
solid state drive
Solid State Drives (SSD)* significantly enhance performance compared to a hard disk drive (HDD). Boot times are 25-50 percent faster and data access is 300 times faster for reading and 150% faster for writing. SSDs also weigh less, use significantly less power and are less prone to damage.
- SSD is based on factory specifications.
simple data sharing
With a host of advanced connectivity tools, including a 7-in-1 memory card reader, 3 x USB port, and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, you can seamlessly move data from your digital camera, camcorder, MP3 player or PDA straight to the notebook.
sleek and slim design
Sleek and slim design with a durable magnesium alloy casing provides amazing strength and superior reliability coupled with added ergonomics and premium styling. In addition, the brushed aluminum plate on the LCD back provides extra durability and is available in a choice of stylish colours.
revolutionary battery life
The long-life 6 cell battery delivers up to 10 hours continuous use, which is also guaranteed by the use of a power efficient LED display and flash-based Solid State Drive.
33.8cm (13.3) SuperBright LED display
The 33.8cm (13.3) wide display provides up to 30% more viewing area than traditional screens. Using LED technology means screens are thinner, brighter, and more durable and power efficient. You can also enjoy photo-like image quality, greater viewing angles and better text legibility, reducing eye strain and increasing productivity.
TPM & fingerprint
The X360 delivers complete peace of mind with a secure biometric fingerprint authentication system and a trusted platform module (TPM), so your valuable information will always remain safe from prying eyes-and you may never need to remember another password!
fast docking
The X360 is compatible with SAMSUNG’s P-Dock docking station, which simplifies cabling and provides a ‘single click’ connection and easy access to a wide variety of ports, including serial, 5 x USB, LAN, HDMI, SIO, e-SATA and DVI (Digital Video Interface) to deliver outstanding digital image quality on large displays and projectors.
