70% Samsung Notebook 9 Pen review: Samsung's note-taking PC can't quite justify its price
Source: PC World Archive.org version
This unassuming 13.3-inch laptop conceals Samsung's S-Pen, as well as a robust 8th-gen Core chip and a fairly spacious SSD. It's a solid notebook, though not at Samsung's original asking price.

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.
