 Samsung N110 - Best Netbook To Date!!! April 23, 2009
Conor Early (San Jose, CA)
83 out of 84 found this review helpful
I received my N110 from Buy.com earlier this week. First off, let me say that I would have preferred to order this item from Amazon.com, but it was unavailable at the time of my purchase. Amazon is by far my first choice for all my purchases due to their incredible customer service and low prices, and I wish that the N110 would have been available here sooner. That said, here is the skinny on the N110.
So far it has met all my needs and expectations for such a small computer. I have seen a lot of people give bad reviews to netbooks based on their lack of an optical drive, small keyboards/track pads, or their poor performance with 3D gaming. To these people I say - do some research and know what you are buying before you purchase it. It's a netbook people, not a 15" laptop that has been magically shrunk to fit in a 10" casing. Like all things in life, some things had to be sacrificed in order to achieve such a small computer. Processing power and track pad/keyboard size had to be decreased to fit everything into such a small package and get extended battery run times.
Before purchasing the N110 I had about a weeks experience with the Samsung NC10 Special Edition. I returned it to Amazon.com due to some squeaks and creaks coming from the casing on the left hand side. I know that some netbooks have flimsy construction and that this can be attributed to their low costs, but from the reviews I have read on the Samsungs, this should not be the case. Since the build quality's reputation on the Samsung is impeccable, I determined that I must have a defective unit and sent it back to Amazon. Amazon.com took it back with no questions asked for a full refund. Thanks Amazon!!
Since the N110 was starting to show up on online retailer's sites, I decided to hold off on ordering another NC10 SE and get the N110 instead.
Boy, am I glad that I did. The chassis on the N110 is beautiful (with zero squeaks or creaks). I definitely find the red stripe on the N110 easier on the eyes then the chrome one found on the NC10 SE. Also, the round edges on the N110's chassis give it a much more modern look then the NC10's square chassis. Here is my breakdown from a previous review of the NC10 vs NC10 SE vs N110. I am reposting this because I am sure that a lot of people who are interested in the N110 will also be looking at the NC10 and NC10 SE. Hopefully this helps some of you to come to your decision.
NC10 vs. NC10 Special Edition:
1. Larger battery on NC10 SE: Both are 6 cells. 5200 mAh for standard NC10 vs 5900 mAh for Special Edition.
2. Larger track pad on NC10 SE. (see pic here: http://www.liliputing.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/nc10-touchpads.jpg)
Essentially the Special Edition has the same specs as the new Samsung N110, just with the NC10's chassis. Further details on the differences below.
NC10 Special Edition vs. N110
1. N110 has glossy screen, and NC10 SE is matte. At first I thought I would not like a glossy screen, but after using my new MacBook Pro 15" for the past few months, my mind has been swayed.
2. Ingratiated graphics: N110 has Intel 945 GSE w/ 128 MB VRAM vs NC10 having Intel 945 GSE w/ 64 MB VRAM. No sure how this will impact video playback, buy my philosophy is more is always better.
3. Different chassis. Edges are rounder on the N110, along with the strip of red around the edges. One of my TVs is a Samsung w/TOC, and I like it just fine.
Is it worth it? It depends. Since one of the biggest complaints I've read regarding the standard NC10 is its track pad size (a hardware element that cannot be modified), The extra costs for the N110 is a small price to pay to have a little more real estate on the track pad and more battery power (an extra bonus). If you use an external mouse, the track pad size is moot and does not matter, so the N110 may not be worth the extra money. As far as purchasing the NC10 SE over the N110, if you like the square chassis and matte screen, I would say go for the NC10 SE. At the time of this review, the NC10 SE was currently unavailable and has this message up from Amazon:
"Item Under Review
This item is currently unavailable from Amazon.com because customers have told us there may be something wrong with it, the way we were shipping it, or the way it's described here. (Thanks for the tip!)
We're working to fix the problem as quickly as possible"
I don't know what this means, but it looks like the NC10 SE may not even be available anymore.
Hope this insight is of some help.

My functional requirements were to be able to do internet browsing efficiently and quickly, watch videos on certain websites, do email, handle small to medium spreadsheets, and some light word processing. I also wanted a machine with exceptional battery duration and that was relatively light and easy to carry.
Significant expert information resources I relied on: laptop magazine, cnet, Samsung, Dell, Hp, Asus. And of course, user reviews.
Hands on pre-purchase decision: With this model, I had none prior to purchase through Amazon. I checked out various competitor models at a couple of Big Box stores, but wasn't sold on any of them, even though the prices were lower. As with a couple of other unrelated purchases, the reviews for them seemed to match what I saw, so I assumed that the reviews for this unit that I hadn't seen must be reasonably accurate, and even more so for the performance test results.
So what have I found out since ordering and using the N110: The short answer is laptop magazine's glowing review and resulting Editor Choice designation is right on.
My own impressions in no particular order:
Internet access: outstanding through a wireless connection or with an ethernet connection.
Screen viewing: Outdoors - it is difficult to read the screen due to the screen's reflections. Indoors - rich and vibrant colors.
Screen images: No problems whatsoever when watching video content from sites such as youtube, mlb, abc. Text based sites such as NyTimes, Washington Post - crisp and legible.
Touch pad: Now past the learning curve, I like it. I am quite familiar with two button pads, and I like the rocker style.
Keyboard: Bigger is better. But you knew that already.
Battery life: I haven't stretch tested it, but 4.5 hours of use left it with around a 50% charge. So claims of it lasting up to 9.5 hours use per charge seem not to be a stretch . At least for the way, I'm using it. This is of course not the same result as the battery drain tests with results of around 7 plus hours.
Fan Noise and Heat: No issues noticed.
Overall system performance: The N110 has handled everything I've thrown at it, but I am not throwing heavy duty computionational tasks like simulations, video decoding or graphic intensive games, nor do I ever expect to on this machine. I am currently running it with the standard 1 gb memory, and although I ordered a memory upgrade at the same time as the N110, I haven't seen a need for the extra memory, yet. On the negative side, if you are planning on using this machine often outdoors in bright light, you will more than likely end up being unhappy with this machine. Otherwise, I think laptop magazine got it right: it is a near perfect netbook.
A great little Netbook May 14, 2009

I have had my Samsung N110 for about a week now. I upgraded the ram to 2gb. I have itunes and office 2007 running on it and I have had zero problems so far. The battery is truly amazing. I have surfed the net for a couple of hours, transfered music from my desktop to the samsung, installed office, and played around with all of the settings and features for a total of over 8 hours and I still had over 30% battery life showing. I thought the glossy screen would bug me, but it isn't bad at all. The only time I notice it is when I first start up the computer and the screen is totally black.
The only things I would point out is that the red strip is not as visable as it is in the pictures. It is closer to black than shown here. Also, if you look closely at the cover, it also has a very faint red sparkle. My wife doesn't see it, but I swear it is there. That is how faint it is.
Also, there is no multitouch feature on the trackpad for two finger scrolling. Not a big deal. The only complaint I have is that thte Samsung logo under the screen was put on a little crooked. The keyboard was my biggest concern. I have big hands (I can palm a basketball) and it has worked flawlessly for me. I would highly recommend this netbook!
 Nice little netbook July 6, 2009

Bought this with the fairly inexpensive 2 GB memory upgrade (easy to install). Really nice, powerful enough to do everything I want in a netbook. The pro features way outweigh the minor cons.
Pros:
1. Nice bright display
2. Excellent battery life
3. Good keyboard size
4. Painless, high quality wireless connectivity
5. Three USB ports (at least one on each side)
6. Video output port for using 2nd monitor when it matters
7. Good audio & camera system for Skype, for example
Cons:
1. Display always dims shortly after starting, so brightness needs to be manually restored (that's easy)
2. Often gets stuck on wake-up from sleep. So we now use hibernate when going into standby, that doesn't have a problem -- wakes up cleanly.
3. Touchpad scrollbar feature somewhat unreliable
I compared it to several other models and preferred its look and feel. The Samsung gives the impression of being a quality build.
Great Netbook October 31, 2009

I do a lot of traveling, and often stay in developing countries. I decided about 4 months ago to buy the Samsung N110 netbook as it looked like it would fulfill my requirements; a netbook that was lightweight, easy to carry around, with long battery life, easy to type on, and with enough performance to handle all my programs. The Samsung N110 netbook met all my requirements and then some. I upgraded the RAM to 2 GB as soon as I received the netbook.
The battery life was very important to me, as the city where I am presently residing have many electrical power outages, sometimes up to 14 hours without power every other day! My old laptop, a Dell Latitude D610, with the screen brightness turned down, could barely manage 1.5 hours before the battery died. In other words, I couldn't get any work done when the power was out.
Now, with the netbook, I can work continuously at least 6 hours and still have battery power remaining. Not only that, I discovered that when I connect the Logitech V20 USB powered speakers Logitech 970155-0403 V20 Notebook Speakers (Black) to this netbook, I get good room volume sound (so much better sound quality and louder volume than built-in laptop or netbook speakers) and it uses the netbook battery so it doesn't rely on external power. When the power goes off, I can listen to my iTunes music or internet radio at room volume for several hours, at least 6 hours with battery power remaining. Internet radio is great when traveling as I can listen to all my favorite local (Seattle) radio stations from anywhere in the world and keep up on what's happening at home. I also like the way the netbook goes to standby mode when I completely close the lid. I can listen to music when I go to bed (with the lid raised about 1 inch) and then just close the lid to shut the music off. It doesn't seem to use up any battery power in standby mode and quickly resumes where it left off when I reopen the lid and press the power button.
I discovered another use of this netbook (something that was never mentioned before). During power outages, I can read for several hours using the light from the netbook screen! It also lights up the room sufficiently to do things around the room. Granted, the brightness of the screen has to be turned up and you must be relatively near the screen to read a book, but it works (you must also turn off the LCD auto-dimming function by right-clicking on the BatteryMgr icon in the taskbar).
I use the netbook to give PowerPoint presentations. Even though the resolution of the netbook screen is 1024 x 600, the resolution is much higher on external monitors and projectors. So far I was able to use the maximum resolution capabilities of the projectors I have used. The presentations are just as sharp and clear using this netbook as when using high-powered expensive laptops. With the long battery life, I don't bother using a power cord and looking for the right adapter for the type of power plug the country uses. I can give PowerPoint presentations for 8 hours without connecting my netbook to external power.
Update: I checked out just how long I could give PowerPoint presentations without connecting the netbook to external power. I set the netbook to battery saving mode and set the PowerPoint presentation to run continuously, changing slides every 15 seconds (the display was on a large external monitor). The netbook played this PowerPoint presentation for 9 hours before it switched to hibernate mode to conserve the remaining battery power (8 percent battery power remaining). The battery power level when the netbook goes into hibernate mode is user settable.
Update: I checked out what screen resolutions this netbook can obtain on external monitors by connecting up an external 22 inch monitor. The screen resolutions possible using this netbook on a HP w2207h 22 inch monitor were as follows: 800 x 600, 1024 x 600, 1024 x 768, 1152 x 720, 1152 x 864, 1280 x 600, 1280 x 720, 1280 x 768, 1280 x 960, 1280 x 1024, 1400 x 1050, 1440 x 900, 1600 x 900, 1600 x 1000, 1600 x 1200, and 1680 x 1050. I watched a DVD at the highest setting on the netbook with this external monitor and it was gorgeous, with no slowdown or any other problems. It is possible to have a large high resolution monitor to work with at home (or at work), and then easily disconnect the netbook from the monitor for traveling.
PowerPoint, Word, Excel, and Access on this netbook all work very well, and seem just as fast, or faster, than my old laptop. I had installed my own Microsoft Office Pro software.
I also burn DVDs and print LightScribe Labels on them using the Samsung external DVD Writer SE-T084M Samsung SE-T084M/RSBD External Slim Slot Load USB Lightscribe DVD-Writer (Black/Silver) with this netbook. This DVD writer is small, sleek, and elegant and works very well. It uses power from the netbook so it does not rely on external power. Recently I burned 4 DVDs and printed LightScribe labels on them (using the best setting) during a power outage. I still had 50% battery power remaining afterwards.
I also use the 41U5008 Lenovo Thinkpad Bluetooth Laser Mouse Lenovo ThinkPad Bluetooth Laser Mouse - Mouse - laser - 3 button(s) - wireless - Bluetooth - stealth black with this netbook. It is small enough to be easily carried around and works well. Its black colored body and red scroll wheel goes well with this black colored netbook with a red stripe.
I also use the Case Logic LNEO-10 Notebook Sleeve Case Logic LNEO-10 Ultraportable Neoprene Notebook Sleeve (Black). This netbook fits well inside it and the Case Logic sleeve gives much better protection than the sleeve that came with the netbook. The Case Logic sleeve has thicker padding, and the netbook zips completely closed inside it. This sleeve is quite compact and will protect the netbook when inside my hand-carry bag, inside a suitcase, or inside a hotel room safe, without taking up much room. My netbook is still scratch-free, even with all the traveling I did in the last 4 months.
This netbook is very useful when traveling for checking e-mails, as well as for video and audio chatting with family and friends (this netbook has a built-in video cam and microphone). I use Windows Live Messenger for video and audio chatting with friends and family while I am traveling, a good and inexpensive way to keep in touch while being away.
The only thing negative I have to say about the netbook is that my old laptop plays 3D games better. This is a common characteristic of netbooks using low power processors, but I consider it a good tradeoff for the great battery life.
