5 Stars Very nice, best netbook I’ve bought
I just sold my HP mini 1000 on Craigslist. It was a nice netbook but short on battery life and storage space. I also have an original acer aspire one 8.9″ with extended battery. That laptop was nice but screen is a bit small but has a nice bright screen and a somewhat cramped keyboard. But ok battery life. I still have that one. I also have a MSI wind U120 which isn’t bad but battery life isn’t great but ok. And then I have an ASUS 900HA, that was pretty cheap at less than $300. Its very small but the keyboard on those Eee PCs aren’t very good (bad place for shift key) but the small size makes up for it as its smaller than the acer aspire one 8.9 inch but isn’t good for long sessions .
Now I just got this from amazon for $399 and its my very favorite. The quality of the Samsung N120 is outstanding. The computer is Matte finished so no more fingerprints. The glossy screen is very nice and bright. Battery life is the best of all four. The keyboard is perfect at 97% full size.
I want to sell my other ones except maybe the asus 900HA.
After using this for one week now I am really impressed with the speakers. When I compare them to the other 4 netbooks they blow them away. itunes sounds great and you can actually hear the stereo sound and the ‘subwoofer. I’m EXTREMELY happy with this purchase and can’t imagine a better netwook with a 10″ screen. Buy this and you will be extremely happy!
4 Stars Great cheap laptop — but non-square pixels
This is a great cheap laptop and I plan to use it as my main computer. The keyboard is great and the trackpad and buttons are acceptable. It makes a great word processor, Web browser, and player for DVD-quality videos.
Note that the screen is 8.78 inches wide and 4.94 inches tall (a 16:9 ratio) even though the pixels are 1024×600 (a 16:9.4 ratio). So the screen is 117 dpi horizontally and 121 dpi vertically — each pixel is stretched horizontally by four percent.
I didn’t notice this at first and it’s fine for browsing the Web, but if you’re playing back video, you’ll want to tell the video player that the monitor aspect ratio is 16:9, or everything will be just a little squished. That also goes for everything else you display.
4 Stars Samsung n120 a portable netbook for all
I wanted to get a netbook to have a computer that was portable. I do own a dell m4300, but it was heavy. Especially, when my family and I travel during the summer, I wanted something that I could listen to music and books and do e-mail on the go. I did a lot of research on netbooks.
This netbook stood out to me for a few reasons:
It’s keyboard. I have seen a few netbooks from other college friends and the keyboards did not amaze me. Samsung has outdone it on this product. The keyboard was very easy to type on. My only thing is I wonder why they only chose to include one windows key?
Anyone have anythoughts on that one?
Oh well, just one little odd design issue one can get used to.
Battery life was also great. I got between 6-8 hours on a charge.
From the first day I got it, everything just worked.
I was able to do skype with no problem.
People on skype say my internal microphone sounds quite good.
Listening to music and browsing the web was also a snap.
It found my wifi network right away-I was able to enter the wpa2 key and connect.
If you are looking for a computer with great audio battery life and a great keyboard then the n120 is the netbook for you.
5 Stars Best in Class
Samsung’s N120 is absolutely amazing and I’m very happy with the purchase. I did a lot of research over the past few months – and I’m not willing to settle for a netbook with less than six hours of video watching time or 10 hours of surfing/work time – I’d rather not have one honestly. The N120 delivers and more.
The keyboard is easy to use – much more comfortable than most for plane travel because of the unit’s overall small weight and footprint. In addition, the mouse trackpad works great – very impressive.
While the screen is reflective like all the new netbooks – and I did want a matte screen – like the other reviewers said, it’s about as non-reflective as a reflective screen can be – no complaints here.
Samsung took their immensely successful first generation NC10 – integrated the consumer feedback and delivered once again. The build quality and specs made this a no-brainer for me. I was leaning toward the HP and Lenovos but they haven’t been able to strike a balance between long battery life (all 6-cell netbooks are not created equal) and weight. Samsung did it with the NC10 and they’re doing it once again with this second generation: N110 and N120. If this second generation hadn’t just come out, I would have likely bought the NC10 if any.
Obviously, Samsung is reading the consumers better than the rest of the pack.
It even comes with its own neoprene-like (thick cloth) sleeve – which you’ll have to add your own velcro to. Why they chose to not put a velcro closure on it is a very good question.
Overall, I would buy this again – and will recommend to friends and clients.
5 Stars Amazing! And I have a question
I got this netbook because my 13″ Ibook died. I’m a mac-addict, and I wish Apple made a netbook. But, other than that, I love everything about the Samsung N120: The screen is amazing, the keyboard is more than generous and feels great, the size is perfect, it is easy to carry. [....]
My question is: Does anyone know what car charger would work with this? And is it okay to charge a computer when the car is running?
