Samsung NF Series Netbooks Tout Shark Fin Design and Dual-Core Atom Processors

Samsung netbooks have always been a successful marriage Sony VGP-BPS8 Battery of portability and price.


The $349 Samsung N150 Plus we reviewed earlier this year was no exception and now, the company strikes again with the NF series, a new line of 10.1-inch netbooks that will soon pack dual-core Intel CPUs and come with an eye-catching sony VGP-BPS9/B Battery shark fin design that traces the bottom portion of the chassis.


What about the N150? Well, rather than phase out its production, Samsung is updating the popular 10.1-inch netbook Sony VGP-BPS9A/B Battery with new black and matte exteriors as well the same dual-core CPU that will help push the battery longevity of some NF branded notebooks into the 14-hour bracket.


The NF210 will be the line’s first offering and it’s not very tricked out in the specs sony VGP-BPS9 battery department. When the 11 x 7 x 1-inch notebook lands later this month, it’ll offer a 1024 x 600 resolution, 250GB The storage device that holds your OS, programs, and data.

On the other hand, the NF310, expected to debut in October for $399, Dell Studio 1737 Battery will pack Intel’s first multi-core Atom processor. The new CPUs are expected to raise performance (at least marginally), lengthen battery life, and support DDR4 memory, so to see the chips shipping in new netbooks is an exciting proposition.

New iPod nano with Multitouch Hands-On: Minimalist to the Extreme


It kind of makes the shuffle look irrelevant, except for one small detail. The price. The new VGP-BPS13/B nano (8GB), which boasts a small but sweet capacitive display, starts at $149, compared to just $49 for the new Shuffle (2GB). The old nano right now can be had for as little as $110 on Amazon, so is this device splurge worthy? It depends on how you plan to use it, because Apple has stripped some stuff out compared to the last-gen model.


The new nano features a small but crisp 1.5-inch Sony VGP-BPS13 Battery display with 240 x 240 resolution, and this device is really designed to be worn. Not only does the nano weigh just .74 ounces, it’s made of sturdy aluminum, making it an ideal exercise companion. Cleverly, Apple lets you rotate the display with a two-finger gesture so you’re always looking at menus and content the right way no matter how you attach it to your body. However, Apple has lopped a couple of big features off.For starters, the nano no longer captures video. For that capability you’ll have to step up to the $229 iPod touch. You also can’t play video on this device as you could with the last-gen nano. Then again, we don’t think anyone Sony VGP-BPS13A/B Battery would want to watch movies or TV shows on this stamp-size screen.


During our brief hands-on time, navigating through menus was pretty seamless Sony Laptop Battery with a finger, and you get physcial volume buttons and a power button up top. To get back to the main screen at any time, you just press and hold the display. Other notable features include Genius playlists, and FM radio, and Nike + integration. The 24 hours of music playback on a charge isn’t shabby either.


So is the new nano really cool? Yes, it’s pretty amazing how much good battery functionality Apple packed. Just keep in mind that it’s a music focused device, and that you’re paying a premium for multitouch
