This device is hands down the most powerful and capable compact laptop that I have ever used. It has the system memory, feature set, and processing power to easily handle and multi-task all my productivity and entertainment needs. It features an elegant, compact design that allows it to function as a laptop, tablet, or a hybrid of both. It is perfect for any and all personal productivity and entertainment duties that I have used it for. It’s compact size and light weight make using and carrying it an absolute pleasure. --SAMSUNG NOTEBOOK 9 PRO HIGHLIGHTS— 8th generation Intel Core i7 processor, Lightweight and Portable, Powerful Multi-Tasking Performance, 256 GB Solid State Hard Drive, Fingerprint Reader, Bright and Vibrant Screen, 2 in 1 laptop/tablet design, 3 USB-C ports, Powered Stylus. --SETUP-- Was as simple as charging and turning it on, signing on to Wi-Fi, and then Windows. Since I already have a Microsoft account my saved settings were seamlessly carried over from my other PC so I was up and running very smoothly. Samsung has included propriety setting that allow for some enhanced customization features in addition to what is allowed by Windows 10. Once feature that I really liked is a battery saver option that simulates having the battery removed and the laptop running on AC power. I have never seen this option before and am using it because this will keep the battery running at peak efficiency much longer. Included is a power brick that attaches to a USB-C charging cord. Because USB-C is becoming widespread I love that don’t have to bring the power brick with me on the go and can instead charge it with the same power adapter that I use for my other portable devices. Of course, using a phone or tablet power adapter will charge a laptop much slower, but is nice a nice option when travelling light is a priority. The battery charges fully in about one hour, and I have found it to last for a respectable 12 hours per charge. The flash hard drive greatly improves the system speed. If you have never used a solid state hard drive you will immediately notice the improved speed as opposed to the older style hard disk drive. The screen is full HD (1080P) capable. It is rated as 350 nits for indoor use and up to 500 nits for outdoor use. The color, contrast, and sharpness are superb and is exactly what I would expect at this price point. The touch screen is very responsive and works well. The included stylus pen works well with Windows Ink. Be aware that the stylus uses a AAA battery (included) and how long it will last depends on your use. I have been using the stylus for a few days and the battery is still going strong. Also included is a few extra stylus tips. They keyboard layout is functional and very easy to use. It is very nicely backlit and does a great job off illuminating at the right level because of the ambient light sensor. This is the best backlit keyboard design I have ever used. The power button on the right-side doubles as a fingerprint scanner. This scanner works well and is very fast and accurate. The dual band wireless adapter worked flawlessly and was able to provide a very strong connection. This laptop comes equipped with stereo speakers that are adequate for most basic tasks. The sound quality is typical for a thin laptop and is comparable to the sound produced externally by a phone or other small device. When I listen to music and movies I use a Bluetooth speaker or headphones. --BUILD QUALITY AND APPEARANCE— I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I am with the build quality. The chassis It is made of an aluminum/magnesium alloy that makes this notebook not only beautiful to look at, but also thin, light, and easy to handle. The color (called Platinum Titan) is a very attractive satin silver hue. --VERDICT— This laptop is equipped with enough processing power and system memory to easily handle any of the productivity and entertainment tasks that I use it for. The boot up time in near instant because of the processor, memory, and solid state drive. The program and App response are likewise nearly instantRead full review
