Full Samsung X460 Reviews!
We covered the early reviews and rumors surrounding the Samsung X460, and it seems that today is the day the full reviews are starting to drop. There has been a lot of hype over this machine, so I’ve been excited to see what people are going to say about the pleasure box. So far, it seems good, with a few dissenters.
In their full review, the gang at Laptop Magazine gave the X460 four stars and an editor’s choice award, saying:
[T]his machine provides a good one-two punch of performance and battery life. We wish the nine-cell battery option cost less, and that Samsung offered integrated mobile broadband connectivity. Also keep in mind that you can’t configure this system to order; what you see is what you get. But overall the X460-44P is one of our favorite thin-and-light notebooks.
Crunch Gear was less impressed, finding fault with the display setup:
Samsung had me hooked until I saw that the big LCD only pushes out 1280 x 800 pixels, which, to me, defeats the purpose of having a screen that big. I may be in my late twenties but I can still see just fine.
