Benchmark scores, of course, are not the only consideration you should make when buying a notebook. (If they were, it would be a very tough choice among these three comparable machines.) You should also consider screen quality, sound quality, keyboard comfort, and other tangibles.

Great battery life, WiMAX and WiDi 2.0 wireless features, and a powerful CPU and GPU tag team are what make the Samsung NP700Z5B-W01UB a great laptop. But, because of its superior graphics processor, good battery life, overall solid performance, and amazing typing experience, the Dell XPS 15z (Microsoft) remains the Editors' Choice for the desktop replacement category. The Samsung NP700Z5B-W01UB does come in at a close second, though.
