Product Description
10.1" Netbook NB30-Black

Amazon.com Product Description
Avoid a rough day on both you and your netbook with the Samsung NB30 netbook PC, which features an innovative hard disk drive (HDD) freefall sensor that protects data by automatically parking the HDD if it senses the netbook dropping. The exterior is protected, too, with a scratch-resistant, texturized matte black finish. And the NB30 also incorporates a water-tight seal to prevent potential damage from contact with up to 50cc of spilled water (less than 2 ounces) if removed within 10 seconds.



Adorned in a fashionably protective material with a texturized matte black finish, the Samsung NB30 also features a shock-resistant hard drive and a 10.1-inch LED-backlit display.

This lightweight netbook gives you access to all the computing tools you'll need on the go, and it offers a 10.1-inch LED-backlit display, the latest Intel Atom N450 processor, Windows 7 Starter operating system, and up to 6.5 hours of battery life. Based on an entirely new micro-architecture, the Intel Atom N450 is specifically designed to deliver excellent Internet performance and increase energy efficiency to extend battery life.

Great for writing e-mail and getting work done while on the go, this netbook also sports a webcam for staying in contact via video chats. With the integrated Wireless-N Wi-Fi, you'll be able to connect to the Internet at home or at hotspots throughout town. Other features include a 160 GB hard drive, 1 GB of installed RAM, a 3-in-1 memory card reader, and three USB 2.0 ports.

Key Features

Scratch-Resistant Finish
Adorned in a fashionably protective material with a texturized matte black finish, the Samsung NB30 reduces the risk of scratches and fingerprints as well as adding another layer of durability. Built to withstand the bumps and knocks that come with your busy on-the-go lifestyle, the NB30 comes with a stylish, robust casing designed to keep its contents safe and sound.

Shock Resistant Hard Drive Design
The free-fall sensor detects if the drive is in a free fall (if you drop the NB30), and instantly moves the read/write heads away from the hard disk, protecting the disk from scratches and keeping your valuable data safe.

Ultra Mobility
The NB30's 6-cell battery delivers up to 6.5 hours of power to keep you running all day long. That means you can keep sending emails and uploading photos without worrying about being shut down. And an energy efficient LED display and optimized processing technology adds to its long-lasting performance.

Safe from Spills
Ever spilled water on your netbook, or worry that you might one day? This Samsung netbook offers a worry-free, water-tight seal that protects the surface of your netbook from liquids (up to 50cc of liquid if removed in 10 seconds, based on testing by Samsung).

Digital LiveCam
Incorporate cool video effects into your webcam chats with Live YouCam. Liven up your chats with 'virtual' hats and masks or choose one of 12 3D avatars to mimic your facial movements. Once you're done, easily upload your video to YouTube and Facebook. And workaholics can use the Live YouCam to share PowerPoint files and capture desktop videos for quick do-it-yourself demos and tutorials.
Gesture User-Interface
A convenient gesture user-interface lets you scroll, pinch-zoom in / out, and rotate via touchpad.

Fast Connectivity
The NB30 incorporates advanced communication technologies, including a Wireless-N (802.11b/g/n) connectivity to provide high-speed access to the Internet and your data anytime, anywhere.

Easy Resolution Manager
See the whole picture on your netbook with Samsung's Easy Resolution Manager. If your program or game supports a higher resolution you can easily upgrade to 1024 x 768 to see more details, crisper images and bolder colors.
TCO Certified
This netbook has been awarded the leading environmental and usability standard--TCO 3.0 certification--and is ECO RoHS compliant. As well as being ergonomically designed for optimum ease of use and performance, Samsung netbooks are also completely mercury free and consume significantly less power thanks to their LED backlit displays. Their ultra-lightweight, robust and compact design also offers other "green" advantages, as less power is used in the manufacture and usage phases of their product life.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome Netbook   April 23, 2010
Clayton C. Johanson (Charlotte, NC USA)
5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I do tech support for a living, and often find that I need to have a computer of my own (rather than use a client's PC) when I am onsite fixing problems. My previous portable notebook was a 7-pound Sony which really had way too many bells and whistles for what I usually needed -- that is, just a basic PC, as light and as rugged as possible. When I saw the Samsung NB30, I knew I'd found what I was looking for.

The NB30 is a sweet little machine -- it is fairly speedy, it has great battery life, it's light (even with the AC adapter in my backpack, the entire package is less than 4 pounds), and it's got a "corduroy" outer case which is fingerprint- and scratch-resistant. The Windows 7 Starter operating system was easily upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate (since I do tech support, I need full access to the entire operating system) using Windows Anytime Upgrade, and upgrading the RAM from 1 GB to 2 GB (highly recommended) took only a couple of minutes.

If you're looking for a netbook, I highly recommend the NB30.

This is a really great netbook. Tough and durable. Swapped out the drive with a OCZ SSD drive and upgraded the RAM to 2GB and this thing is a speed demon!!

Love it. Lightweight and excellent battery. Mat finish screen is great when working in sunlight. 2megs of ram was a recomended upgrade and that is good idea, especially for public wi-fi speeds. Not a real fan of windows 7, but is useable.


5 out of 5 stars So Far, So Good   July 20, 2010
R. Wyatt (Camden County, NJ)
Purchased this as a gift for a gentleman in his 70's that is wheel-chair bound... He loves it!
It took a while for him to become accustomed to the mouse pad, it's operation, and the on/off switch location...
I don't think he'll ever learn what the various LED's mean... as long as it works, he's happy!
After a month in service, he's happy, so I'm happy!
