Samsung Q330

Samsung produces yet another excellent and affordable 13.3-inch laptop.

Durable ; Stylish ; Cheap ; Excellent battery life

Annoying touchpad positioning ; Glossy touchpad buttons ; Poor screen viewing angles

Aside from the silly touchpad placement, it's difficult to fault the Q330. It's durable, looks good, performs well and has very good battery life: all the things you need in a genuinely mobile laptop. Best of all, however, is the price. At £600 it's an...

Samsung Q330 review

A stunningly well made and powerful ultraportable at a great price

Solid, premium chassis ; Portable build ; Strong usability ; Excellent performance for the price ; Crisp and vibrant display

Battery life is fair, but not a match for some other modern ultra-portables ; Glossy screen is highly reflective ; Limited integrated graphics

Samsung Q330

Recent Samsung laptops have been stylish affairs, notable as much for their glossy red casing and matching keyboard and trackpad as for their computing capabilities. Overall, this is a highly enjoyable laptop to use - the keys are comfortable,...

Subtle looks and good performance from a well-priced laptop

Average graphics capabilities

Overall, this is a highly enjoyable laptop to use - the keys are comfortable, responsive and work well for fast typing. The styling, though not as standout as recent Samsung models, is designed to match the Jet mobile phone. The graphics card isn't...

Samsung Q330 review

Improves on the original, but only just; we still want to see 4GB of RAM, but the Q330 is still an excellent ultra-portable laptop.

Samsung Q330 (NP-Q330-JA01UK) review

It's a decent ultra-portable, but for this price you can get a laptop with more memory.

Samsung Q330 review

A big name 2kg laptop that costs less than £500 ex VAT? Surely there's a catch? Alan Lu takes a closer look.

The Samsung Q330 doesn't have many business-specific features, but it does have reasonably long battery life, good Windows performance and a comfortable keyboard and touchpad at an inexpensive price. Although there are ultra-portable laptops with...

Samsung Q330

The Samsung Q330 is a balance between power and portability, featuring the latest Intel Core i3 processor and still weighing a mere 1.9kg.

An almost perfect all rounder with a great screen, long battery life, the latest and greatest performance power in terms of the Intel Core i3 processor and some extra and appreciated features

The graphics performance is relatively poor and the screen oddly only goes back so far

The high powered and highly portable Samsung Q330 is a very well balanced laptop that offers everything you need in a laptop whether for work or for home. However, the lack of any serious graphics power is a major let down otherwise this laptop would...
