New laptop tomorrow!

Imma buy a new laptop tomorrow.

I'll probably buy: http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/pc-peripherals/notebook-computers/performance/NP-R780-JS03UK/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail

Although the brochure I got from the shop says 640gb instead of 500gb.

What do you think? :3

I also looked at campusshop, but this seems better value/money

According to some reviews, they agree with this statement ^^

e: found the one the shop lists on the belgian samsung page: http://www.samsung.com/be/consumer/pc-peripherals-printer/note-pc/performance/NP-R780-JS06BE/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=specification

According to reviews the laptop reaches about 100F after 15min of video, which is while having it on your lap...

So cooling should be in order :)

Nice laptop, i'd check the battery life tho
▼
Quazz 31 Aug 2010, 20:39
Battery life won't be that important (normal browsing is only 2:11), because it'll be sitting plugged in most of the time anyway

I hate laptops that have bad battery life, so annoying only getting a few minutes or an hour out of a full charge, and the bigger the screen the more power you draw, my bro has a Samsung netbook and it's shockingly bad and thats only from browsing.

Quazz 31 Aug 2010, 20:41
How's the heat? Noticeable or not? What's normal temp at browsing and heavy load?

looks quite ugly (love my macbook)

also, the fan is on the lower back, which will be super fail if you have your laptop in bed or so. itll heat up super fast

Quazz 31 Aug 2010, 20:54
I'll probably have it on my desk most of the time, so /care about heat

And I quite like the look tbh.

ps: i hate macbooks :P
