Samsung laptops get the X Factor

Fwd Tech  Friday 04 September 2009

Samsung laptops get the X Factor Samsung joins the IFA party with three lithe and lissom laptops. How's that for alliteration?

We’re starting to lose count of how many products have been named ‘the X-series’. Well the latest to get the X factor is Samsung’s new range of slimline laptops – the Samsung X-Series.

The Samsung X-Series offers up a trio of slender laptops that’ll make you wince they’re so thin. The Samsung X520, X420 and X120 come rocking 15.6, 14 and 11.6-inch screens respectively, and like the MacBook Aor and Dell Adamo, these bad boys are slim. We’re talking the same thickness as a pound coin thin!

So what do you get in terms of extras? Well, aside from the CULV processor powering the blighters, you can get either two or 4GB of RAM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and HDMI. Samsung also claims that they’ll squeeze out a whopping nine hours of battery life!

Sammy’s not confirmed pricing at all yet, but expect a release later this month for the X120 and next month for its brothers. Awesome.

I just dont know how the people at Samsung do it. Everytime they bring out a new Laptop or Netbook they just keep getting better and better. The same thickness as a pound coin now that is very impressive. Looking forward to popping into my local retailer to have a look at 1 of these bad boys.
