Reviews for the Samsung 300V3A-A01

60% Samsung Series 3 NP300V3A-A01 13.3-inch Ultraportable Laptop PC
Source: Comp Reviews English Archive.org version
The Samsung Series 3 may not be the thinnest or lightest 13-inch laptop on the market, but it does offer solid performance and storage capabilities that are being sacrificed by many of the latest ultraportables. They keyboard and trackpad are also well designed to be accurate and comfortable.

Intel HD Graphics 3000: Integrated graphics card in the Intel Sandy Bridge processors (Core ix-2xxx). The HD 3000 is the faster (internally GT2 called) version with 12 Execution Units (EUs).

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

13.30":

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
