it's a toshiba, it's great for my first laptop
 
Review Date: April 1, 2010
Reviewer: MelLopez, Caracas, Vzla
This is my first laptop and I can recommend it. I like that it has the numeric pad on the side, it's very practical. I can say I'm happy with it. When I took it out of the box, I really liked the color, of course it will depend if you like a black one or a metal looking laptop. For me, it gives it a sense of sophistication.
The other thing I notice is that it's bigger than I thought, it's larger because of the numeric pad. But that hasn't been so much of an issue for me yet.

As far as the Internet connectivity, it's fast. It works well on the battery alone and I really like Windows 7.
I also like that it has the vent on one side and it runs smoothly and quietly, you almost can't hear it.
The video quality is pretty good and the volume of the speakers is good, decent.

The only problems I had is that I haven't been able to install a program to do my translations because it's not compatible (Softni Subtitler Suite). It's a 32 bit program, and since this laptop is 64 bit I haven't found I way to install it.

The other thing I can say is that the mouse pad isn't so smooth, I'd rather use an external mouse, it's faster.

Overall, it's a great laptop and I'm really happy with it.
Horrible computer, useless warranty (so far), unhelpful service
 
Review Date: July 26, 2010
Reviewer: Daniel8848,
I write this having just been cut off (by phone) with Toshiba's tech support. (Well, actually it was the call center, to which the manager had transferred me in error). I am sending back this computer for the second time in the last two weeks, having purchased it in February (after doing considerable research). It had a myriad of problems including: 1) a non-functioning USB port, 2) a tendency to lock up and then not shut down on command, forcing a shut down by pushing the on/off switch, 3) and on-again-off-again CD burner, 4) an inability to send a daily backup to the reserve hard drive, 5) an inability to send anything greater than three or four songs worth of file space to the back-up drive at one time. With seven or eight songs, it would lock up, and I'd have to go through the shut-down process again.

I got back the computer four days ago. Toshiba had replaced the USB, the optical drive, and the hard drive. Wow, sounded good! But most of the same problems reappeared. Maybe if I had a 32 bit version of Windows 7 instead of 64 bit. Ah, but that's not a possibility, according to the manager I spoke with. My option is to keep sending it back till they repair it, all the way till my warranty runs out.

To say I am angry is putting it mildly. From my experience, I'll never go near Toshiba's laptops again. Maybe that's unfair, but this laptop is screwing up my life to a considerable extent, since I spend many hours a day on the computer.

Review Date: October 6, 2009
Reviewer: Justin Campbell, killeen, tx
I bought this laptop a few months ago, not from here. but somewhere else. the laptop itself is great. there's only two ways to unlock this. one is by password, the other finger prints. which you can scan up to 10 on one user. it's small, lightweight, and portable. the touch screen with out the stylus is somewhat touch sensative, meaning you have to either tap, or press. with the stylus hardly tap it or touch it. it has lightscribe which i haven't used yet, and a dvd remote for windows media center. overall i recommend it.

I have to admit, this was a great buy...
 
Review Date: February 15, 2010
Reviewer: Travis Mayne, Brasher Fall, NY
I was very skeptical at first to invest in a "netbook" given the limited power specs since I have been used to using power desktops/notebooks but this little guy has proved me wrong. As I haven't performed extensive usage of this product, so far it hasn't let me down.

The first generation of netbooks was apparently a real let-down according to another computer guy. However after a year, I began seeing their use in the school atmosphere and thought it would be extremely useful to invest in such. I have tried using all other brands of netbooks but none really seemed to fit my criteria than the Samsung in terms of specs and feel. I will narrow down the pros and cons...

Pros:
- Keyboard keys are nicely laid out and doesn't take much to press the keys...97% size of original...so that the keys are big enough that I can type normal without many mistakes compared to the smaller version of keyboards out there on netbooks

- Screen resolution is "tighter" than most others out there, 1366 x 768, allowing me to see more

- The power cord is approx. 8ft. long which makes it convenient not to have to be on top of an outlet when wanting to use it on battery.

- Battery life is very good on Samsung Optimal Settings allow for ~4 1/2 to ~5 hours of battery life (normal conditions)

- Very decent sound for a netbook

- 2 Gigs of RAM which is essential for running Win7 as currently I'm using ~50% in normal conditions

- The touch pad responds very nicely and smooth to my touch, unlike some I've tried on other brands

- The USEFUL bundled software that Samsung provides to optimize the netbook and backup software as well

- The powerful-than-Intel's graphics is a plus...haven't tested the HDMI output as of yet...


Cons (some are not directed towards the netbook):
- Given the smaller size to be a "netbook", the clicker is small, which is not a con against the book at all but it is an annoyance as I have more trouble with the clicker than I do the keys...

- Samsung is apparently another company that likes to install BLOATWARE that comes pre-installed on the computer. First thing I did was uninstall some stupid games like "Alice Greenfinger" and others. Also software like McAfee (takes much system resources to run and it's useless compared to other anti-malware (i.e. Vipre) and firewall protections (i.e. Zonealarm) that exist that are so much better). Also Cyberlink DVD suite...

- I would have liked a latch to keep the lid closed. I do alot of traveling (as I'm sure others do) with this thing and would like the extra feature like my other laptop does.

- Kind of disappointed that after paying $600 for this little guy that I got a cheezy neoprene flap-jacket for protecting it when a few other colleagues of mine paid ~$350 for their N150 with a better quality neoprene bag with a zipper...I guess I'm just disappointed and jealous since I expected equal or better for paying almost double.

- (Against Samsung) I spent a week trying to figure out why searching for N510-13P there is only N510-4B out there to buy. I know that they are the same model but I don't understand the misinformation between Samsung and some sellers saying N510-13P and you get a N510-4B.

- This day-and-age, you still don't get your Windows 7 installation disk even though you pay for it. I know that it lowers cost of materials thus lower price but I would still prefer having access to a Windows 7 disk if something was to happen to my hard drive...regardless if backup is on the OTHER partition. I actually plan on swapping out hard drive for an SSD drive...now I have to find a way to transfer out a copy of my partition...what a headache!



There is a review out there that complained about the battery sliding out when you try to drag the book towards you. However, this can be avoided if you actually read the instructions and realize that there IS a battery-locking mechanism to keep the battery from doing such.

I use this netbook for application productivity means (Office 2007 and the like), the Internet (of course), but also web development and application development as well when at school or on the go...so so far, it has done well in its job to serve...

Some pros and cons listed are of my PERSONAL OPINION...but the details are still presented so now it is your job to take from it what you will and make your own conclusions...

One of the best Laptops I've seen.
 
Review Date: May 20, 2010
Reviewer: Ira Solomon, Lowell, MA USA
I bought this for a friend and we got it up and running this morning. I am impressed by a number of things.
A very sharp screen, and one that is a touch screen. It works very well.
The finger pad is one of the best I've used.
It has more USB ports then my laptop which is much bigger. It also has an eSata port which allows for fast external drives or an external BluRay player/burner.
The sound is quite good for a device this size. The keyboard is very good.
It was easy to connect to my WiFi router. It can also make a wired connection.
It does have some of the usual "trial software" that you may want to get rid of.
I would recommend a better anti-virus then the one that comes with it.
This would a good machine for a student or someone who needs it for basic things.
It will not be good if you want to run 3 or 4 big programs at the same time. It does not have a large amount of memory. ...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
