    touchpad

Touchpad is a huge source of irritation, makes me hit the laptop because it sticks so much. Have turned off all the other cool features (make it seem like an Apple) but Curry's PC World will not take this laptop back because they claim the touchpad is not malfuntioning, it has simply been badly designed by Samsung! Sucks!

  • Pros
    the slim look of it
  • Cons
    the graffix suck

This computer is a waste of money if only it had a better graffix card. I cant even play MINDCRAFT. It sketches out and does this slow motion strobe crap. I got it at best b?? for $350.00 . I thought I got a good deal. I got skrewed.

I purchased this laptop a week ago, but unfortunately had to return it. It ticked all the right boxes for me: Good design, 15.6 matt screen, illuminated keyboard, light, well made with good performance.

However, the Achilles heel is the touch pad. I used it for a week and got so frustrated with the lack of accuracy when moving the mouse as well as the right click function. I didn't feel connected to the cursor on screen like I do with other laptops when in use. For that reason alone, I sadly returned this laptop. The hunt begins for an alternative!
