The Samsung 17-inch Series 7 Chronos (NP700Z7C-S01US) desktop replacement laptop has a lot going for it and a decent amount of power. But bloatware and a few other missteps keep it from gaining our highest honors.

Samsung Series 7 NP700Z7C Review
Source: AnandTech
For the second straight laptop review, what started out as a system with a lot of promise ends up falling short of my expectations. For many users, the Samsung Series 7 will work very well, but enthusiasts or other folks that tend to push their hardware to its limits may end up less impressed. Let’s start with the good though, as there are many areas where Samsung gets things right.

80% Samsung Series 7 Chronos 17.3-Inch Review
Source: Computer Shopper
In a world of 17.3-inch bruisers and juggernauts, the Samsung Series 7 Chronos stands out. It's not exactly a 17.3-inch-screened ultrabook, but it's as reasonably close to one as we're likely to see. It offers an impressive blend of desktop-replacement performance in a remarkably slim and stylish chassis. Its Core i7 processor provides all the horsepower you'll need, whether you're encoding audio and video files, running office productivity tasks, or just kicking back to watch a movie on the spacious screen.
