A thin
Stylish design
Long battery life
Excellent screen
And a new second-generation Intel Core i5 CPU make the Samsung Series 9 NP900X3A one of the best ultrathin Windows laptops we've ever seen
Lighter and 'arguably' thinner than the MacBook Air
Superb touchpad
Ultra bright display
Excellent built quality and design
Fast SSD
Impressively light. Backlit keyboard. Large touch pad. Good battery life. SSD is reasonably fast. Bundled software is unobtrusive

The editors didn't like
The Series 9's way-too-high sticker price makes the MacBook Air look downright affordable by comparison
The flexy case design doesn't feel as good as the MacBook Air's
Either
Wireless app notification every five minutes is a little annoying but can be turned off
Slightly underwhelming design when compared with the MacBook Air
Wi-Fi adapter is not dual-band
Ambient light sensor is sometimes erratic
HDMI adapter isn't supplied
Multi-touch touch pad still dismays. Terrible speakers. Doesn't support 5GHz 802.11n. Gigabit Ethernet limited to USB 2.0 speeds. Micro HDMI to HDMI converter not included. microSD port isn't as useful as SD. Pricey

No VGA, HDMI only with adapter, No docking port, Long battery recharge time
Samsung's 13.3 inch 900X3A supplies state of the art technology and the best mobility qualities to an equal amount for 1600 euros. An economic ultra low voltage core with incorporated Intel HD Graphics 3000 is onboard with the Sandy Bridge processor, Core...
Incredibly thin, light, Very good performance, Sturdy feel, Bright display, Long warranty
Pricey, Mediocre battery life, No optical drive, Limited port selection
Sleek design, a light-yet-durable chassis, and solid speed make this ultraportable a serious wow-inducer, even if it can't quite surpass its tough competition. ...
Abstract: Samsung, for me, is one of the world's top three manufacturers, alongside Apple and Sony. So the Series 9 should be as special as its peerless TVs and Galaxy tablets. And it is a very nice laptop – if you have some compelling reason to need Windows. I wou...
Abstract: Of the three, the Samsung Series 9 is in the middle weight-wise, but can lay claim to being the thinnest – even if the Mac could also clinch that title if you averaged out its slenderest and fattest bits. Clearly, things are getting a bit silly as manufa...
Samsung's Series 9 is a stunning laptop that's superbly built, has an excellent screen and which feels good to use. It's the thinnest notebook on the market and among the lightest. Even so, it runs an Intel Ivy Bridge CPU that supplies more than decent...

The Samsung Series 9 is a sleek machine, but backed by middling performance.We still can't get over how good looking the Samsung Series 9 is. And with a travel weight (laptop and charger) of 52.7 ounces, it's extremely portable. That said, its performance...

Abstract: The Series 9 is Samsung's ultraportable model, with a slimline profile and sleek design. We found that, while it was lightweight, it was a little lacking in performance power and battery life. Sections The Series 9 is Samsung's ultraportable model, with...
Touchpad takes getting used to, Lower Resolution than we'd have liked, Battery Life
The second generation of Series 9 is a beautiful machine, with a good amount of power, but a few little niggles and could have better battery life making it an attractive, yet not quite perfect machine....
It's such a shame that the Samsung can't squeeze a bit more speed from its processor or more life out of its battery, as it is a rather nice laptop. The backlit keyboard and non-reflective screen make it very easy to use in all kinds of environments. W...

On the face of it this beautifully designed, slim and feather-light laptop is a business laptop extraordinaire, for Windows devotees. Its design, keyboard and Intel i5-powered performance is awesome, though we’re not sure it’s suited to anyone than the...
