Default Samsung NC10 netbook specs and price





The unnamed Samsung netbook first seen by AVING USA now looks to have a full set of specs. They came via email by a tipster named famguy this afternoon, but I see that they were available elsewhere as well. They're really just more of the same, anyway, so they probably could've easily been predicted without any sources!
  • 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor
  • 1GB RAM
  • 10.2" screen (1024 x 600)
  • 80GB/120GB/160GB hard drive options
  • Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 1.3MP camera
  • 3-in-1 card reader
  • 2.9 pounds (I don't follow netbook news, but this seems heavy to me)
  • 6-cell battery
jkk mentions an October release in Korea and a price of about $550. No word on whether this will be available in other regions. Samsung has kept the SPH-P9000 and P9200 under lock and key in Korea, so there's always a possibility that this netbook will stay there too.

What Laptop says they'll be getting the "exclusive first review of the Samsung Netbook ahead of release," so keep an eye on their site for more info. They spoke with the product marketing manager at Samsung UK yesterday, who had this to say:

Quote:
We feel the time is right for our portfolio to expand and introduce a Samsung netbook. We see two distinct market opportunities for this product. Firstly, Netbooks will attract first-time buyers. They will exist as a means for people to connect to the internet and communicate. The low price and practical functionality will bring millions of new people into the global web.

In more mature markets, we see a second major usage model for Netbooks. They will become supplementary PCs and access points for internet services, media and information. Samsung envisages a Netbook for travelling, an extra PC for school work for the children and a PC set up in the house for consuming content on the web.

We feel with our Netbook offering, consumers are given a stylish alternative to the products already on offer. With specification and pricing capable of reaching the mass market, it will certainly turn a few heads
The netbook will be available in blue, black, and white. It's also expected in the UK by the end of October, so release in other regions is looking good.

Interesting info. I wonder about the "stylish alternative" comment though, but then again, that's just marketing spech, so...

I wonder what the North American price point will come it at.

Congrats, Jezza101!

I hope you'll share your first impressions (and maybe some pics) when it arrives. Feel free to start a new thread too, as I've just created a Samsung sub-forum that needs to be fattened up.

Where did you order it from? My husband is pretty set on getting an Eee 1000H, but I keep reminding him about all the good reviews that are coming out about the NC10.

Well this does follow along with the monotony that is now the netbooks market, but this is my favorite looking low end netbook yet.

Cool, yeah Ill put up some first impressions - Ive promised a couple of people some early thoughts - there's lots of interest right now!!

I got it from dabs.com and it arrived a few hours ago. Now im just deciding if im geeky enough to do an "unboxing! I've actually started a Samsung NC10 blog, I'll write up a little report for the forum and link off to it if that's OK!

Perhaps I can persuade your hubby to take the plunge lol!

I actually already did. As soon as the blue one is in stock at Amazon, I'm buying it for his birthday.
