pink n130, 2010-02-03
This is my first netbook, having previously borrowed my sons samsung laptop. I liked that so much it convince me to stick with samsung. Being a relative novice in the computor department i found the setup process really easy,with on screen instuctions in a language i could understand.Keys are a nice size and the colour is a real baby pink. All together i like this netbook. The only negative is the speed,my sons having vista, but i dont notice it much anymore.

Samsung SPF107H 10 inch Digital Photo Frame

A wonderful gadget, 2009-12-05
I am really pleased with this digital picture frame and think it is excellent value for money. Before using it I would advise downloading the full manual from Samsung's website as the instructions supplied in the box are very basic.

It looks great (the styling matches Samsung's LCD TVs), the picture quality is excellent and there are lots of transition effects. It can also display a clock or calendar while showing your images and in addition to the regular slideshow there are also two multiview modes. You can choose whether to display all photos, a particular folder or even select the individual pictures that you wish to be displayed.

After you have installed Samsung's FrameManager program on your computer, you simply connect the frame via USB (with the mains lead in) and choose whether to use it as a picture frame, a mass storage device (to copy images across) or as a secondary monitor. When used as a secondary monitor you simply drag programs off the right-hand side of your main computer screen and they appear in the picture frame.

If you insert an SD card or USB stick then the frame will instantly start displaying the pictures on it and you can also copy them into the frame's 1GB memory. You have the option to reduce the images to the frame's native resolution (1024x600) when copying but I would advise against doing this as no sharpening is done after the pictures are shrunk and they end up looking rather soft compared to the originals. I get much better results resizing and sharpening images on my PC and copying them across via USB.

All in all a great gadget and well worth the money.

• 3G/HSDPA phone with Bluetooth and WIFI

good phone for the price, 2010-02-21
I'm a Nokia lover, so for me to buy a Samsung, it has to be special. I wanted a touchscreen and a qwerty keyboard and this phone has both, for a reasonable price. It was confusing to start with, the instruction booklet isn't very good, but once you get the hang of it, negotiating it is easy enough.
The bits I don't like are the alarm won't go off when the phone is switched off; if a calender item is due when the phone is switched off, it wont tell you about it when the phone is switched on. Both of these functions I had on my Nokia and I miss. The camera doesn't seem very impressive for 3megapixels and its weird holding it to take a pic because its hard not to slide the qwerty keyboard out at the same time.
Having said that, I am used to pretty basic phones, so it may be user error, but like I said the instruction booklet is naff, so how would I know?
I don't use the wap (too expensive) and I find it disconcerting that the G symbol for it is present all the time. I worry I'm connected and using money! But then when I do connect, it changes colour, so I think I'm worrying for nothing. I'd still prefer to switch that symbol off, though. Same for the Bluetooth symbol.
I like the wireless function, but my broadband is slow, so the internet's not very good on the phone, can't see much of FaceBook etc, so I dont bother.
All in all though I am pleased with it

A sleek good looking cd player which not only looks good but plays well. Highly recommended.

Samsung SE-S084C/TSRS USB 2.0 8x DVD Writer External Optical Drive for PC, Netbook and Mac - Red

A neat, highly-portable external CD/DVD writer (plus Nero 9 Essentials), 2010-02-03
The last time I bought an external DVD writer it was longer and wider than a housebrick and of a similar weight. This little marvel couldn't be more different.

At just under 16x14x2cm approx, it lives up to its 'slimline' name and is a sleek, compact little unit that fulfills its promises. To use it, simply plug it into the USB port (one port or two for extra power) using the Y-shaped USB lead provided and it loads immediately using Windows XP/Vista/7. It is supplied with Nero 9 Essentials but can be used with any suite.

Although the PC specs list minimum 1.6GHz processor, mine works fine with my 1.2GHz Intel Atom Z520 installed in my Acer One 751 netbook (which incidentally is also red and colour-matches this drive!).

Build quality is good but the casing is wholly plastic and quite brittle so it probably wouldn't survive being dropped or knocked about too much. It would be a good idea to allocate a pocket within a netbook/laptop carry bag such as this Belkin Bag for Netbooks or similar if you're planning to use it on the move.

Samsung LE46B650T2 46-inch Widescreen Full HD 1080p Crystal LCD TV with Media 2.0 and Freeview

Really Pleased!!, 2009-11-09

Samsung N220 10.1-inch Netbook (Intel Atom N450 1.66 GHz Processor, 1 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD, 6 Cell Battery, up to 11.2 Hours, Webcam, Windows 7 Starter,Green/Black)

Great Notebook well worth the money, 2010-02-10
Think Portability/Travel, Prtability/Travel, Prtability/Travel.

I used this Samsung N220 for a week or so and found it to be a really great notebook.

Primerily looking for ultra portability, strong build and long battery life the N220 really delivered.

If you want something for traveling this is a great choice due to its solid uncluttered construction, Very clear well detailed 10.1" matt screen (ideal for outdoors as it is non reflective) and long battery life (I got 8-10 hours out of it for general computing which is great (It is advertised as having 11 hours life)

The keyboard looks like it has punch buttons but they work very well and keep the construction to the robust theam found in the general design of this notebook.

The Touch pad was also good and responsive, however due to the naturaly small size the left and right mouse clickers were a little fiddely compared to a full size unit.

Boots up quickly with Windows 7 stater edition which is also simple to navigate, reliable with great functionality. Better than XP and streets ahead of Vista, everything is made easy with Windows 7.

Samsung include Hyper Space fast start which is their front end/Desktop which is meant to enhance battery life and performance but I just found it irritating, thankfully you can choose to turn it off or on.

This unit does not have a DVD player so you will need to buy an external DVDRW that will be powered from the USB. I used the LG DVDRW Model Number GP08NU20 which worked sraight out of the box with this Samsung notebook.

The Notebook has 3 x USB, I x VGA out, SD card reader, 3.5mm Headphone scocket, bluetooth & Wireless B,G & N

When I fist turned the machine on and it did the usual windows updates the machine seemed slow and slugish but after a day it seemed to speed up, no idea why, and worked well. Not as fast as a standard laptop but still very usable. It played DVD movies fine however when using MPEG4 video on the Windows Media player software the play back was jurky, by downloading QuckTime player from the apple web site and using that to watch MPEG4 video the problem when away.

One thing that did suprise me was the sound quality, which was fantastic for let alone a laptop but for a notbook of this side was magic.It has a small subwoofer as well as left and right speakers which makes the difference, you can actualy play music and find it listenable, unlike most every other laptop.

The Notebook has the latest Intel Atom N450 1.66Ghz processor and comes with a single slot for the RAM. The RAM supplied is 1GB but you could swap this out for a maximum of 2GB. It also has a super 250GB hard drive which you can choose the partition size of when it first starts up.

Software includes Microsoft Works for viewing and making word & spreadsheet documents etc. It also has a trial version of Windows office Home Student 2007 and windows Live Suite which has a great photo viewer and e-mail application (replaces outlook express I gess)plus other security software & sumsung software.

Size wise it is 272mm wide x 188.5mm deep x 29.8mm thich and weighs 1.2kg, the A/C power adaptor is also very small ideal for travel.

So a realy great travel companion then which an be used on the road or at home.

Samsung SPF-71ES 7 inch Digital Photo Frame - Black

Excellent Value, 2010-03-16
I bought this for my wife for valentines day insted of wasting money on a bunch of flowers that would have died within a week.I had read the other reviews about this frame, slagging off the picture quality, but for normal family photos etc its brilliant. If your David Bailey and you want to show off your work then this is not the frame for you, but if like me you just want to show off your holiday snaps etc then its ideal and a great value for money.
