Features:

There are some controversies regarding this netbook. Though it manages a 6 cell battery with light weight and slim built, and fixes the previous too small touchpad, it is still quite expensive at around $500 because the processor is none other than Intel Atom, RAM 1 GB and HDD 160 GB. There are many other mini laptops that provide the same features but are priced under $400, like Lenovo S10.

Clad in glossy black color and having a matte black interior, this netbook has a lid which is prone to smudges, smears and finger prints. The person would be a hero who could keep this netbook look clean for a whole day.

Keyboard consists of individual keys that are broader on the bottom and narrower on the top. There is a big Shift key on the right, and the touchpad is also bigger than the one in Samsung NC10. a scroll zone has also been defined on the right side vertically.

Screen has a display size of 10.1; quite okay but creates difficulty while reading documents or vertically long pages. Also, the glossy display is not s nice idea. Intel Atom performs well while multitasking. Running for almost 6 hours while constantly playing videos; is nothing less than wonderful battery life.

Product’s Unique Selling Points:

• Nice keyboard and touchpad
• Excellent battery life
• Fantastic software suite

Limitations:

• Glossy display
• Price

Final Words:

With fine features like webcam, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth etc and nice keyboard and touch pad; Samsung N110 is priced very high, and this is a drawback. On the other hand, this is really nice netbook with awesome battery life. Excellent battery life and ultra portability are the two things one needs form a netbook; N110 offers both.
