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.
