We liked the look of the original Sandy Bridge-based Samsung Series 9 laptop, so the slimmer, even-more-lightweight Ivy Bridge-powered model had us salivating when we saw it at a preview in Sydney last month. But as always, the question with laptops is...

The model we tested is the 13-inch NP900X3C-A01FR. The models you find available will depend on the country or region you live in. We found three different models for sale in the UK. The cheapest, the 900X3A-A03, has a 13.3" display, a 1.4 GHz Core i5...

Samsung introduced its thin-and-light Series 9 laptop last year, well before Intel came up with the Ultrabook initiative. As such, you won't find Samsung touting the latest version of the Series 9 as an Ultrabook on its Web site, even though it basical...
Samsung's Series 9 (NP900X3C-A01AU) is a stunning laptop that's superbly built, has an excellent screen and which feels good to use. It's the thinnest notebook on the market and among the lightest. Even so, it runs an Intel Ivy Bridge CPU that supplies...

When Samsung first introduced their Series 9 a while back, consumers loved it. But because we are in 2012, the South Korean manufacturer thought it was high time to come with a fresh take on this laptop. So they launched the follow-up, called $1,299 Serie...
Granted, the fresh Samsung Series 9 NP900X3C-A01 does not really live to the expectations of the original one. But it has many pros. So the fact that it doesn't pack that many features or a smaller price is not something to really make on stay away from...

Samsung's Series 9 is definitely one of the best-looking Ultrabooks. It's extremely sleek and comes equipped with an excellent 13.3-inch matte PLS display with a resolution of 1600x900. The chassis is made in aluminium which makes the Series 9 both ligh...
Last year we tested the entry-level model of the Series 9, but were disappointed that Samsung used a very slow SSD. Samsung made up for that decision but finally using one of its own SSDs, and combined with the faster Core i7 processor it results in a m...

Samsung's 13.3″ Series 9 is a great laptop. It's got strong features, excellent build quality, and performs well, with the exception of its speakers, which need a bit more bass. According to Samsung Australia's website, it retails for AU$1,599, which we...

What should remain an important driving force for the 13.3-inch subnotebooks (aka ultrabooks) is the display. The matte PLS screen uses 1600x900 pixels (HD+). The luminance should be 400 cd/m² according to Samsung. Other specifications include 4 GB of DDR...

The Samsung Series 9 2012 is a great laptop with a stunning design. It's not always easy to see how things really “feel” in the real world when all you have are photos and videos, and Samsung should do anything it can to put these in people's hands. It is...
