Samsung Q45

Samsung updates the Q35 for Santa Rosa, and calls it the Q45. Does it match the excellence of its predecessor?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Samsung has already managed great things with the Q35, and the Q45 only continues that trend. It isn't the most complete Santa Rosa notebook out there, but at this price it hardly matters.

Samsung Q45 laptop

Samsung continues to overhaul its notebook range with the Q45. This is a lightweight entry-level machine that uses its new Aura design, which includes a piano-lacquer style of finish. This gives the Q45 a great look that is highly reflective but it...

Great value, long-life battery

Poor keyboard, grainy screen

The Samsung Q45 is something of a mixed bag, as the performance and battery life are more than appealing, especially at this price point and make it easy to recommend.

Samsung Q45

The latest in Samsung's Q range of small laptops is, on the face of it, a very appealing prospect. Outwardly, its minimalist 'piano black' casing gives it what most users would class as an enviable, even chic, appearance

Great value for money, Good display

Poor sound, Nothing to get excited about

Reasonably good in most areas, and good value too, but don't expect to fall in love

Samsung Q45 Review

The Samsung Q45 is a 12.1" ultraportable notebook is a budget priced system that still manages to pack impressive performance and features into a relatively small footprint. Based around Intel's Core 2 Duo Santa Rosa platform and featuring Intel X3100...

Very quiet ; Long battery life ; Relatively lightweight ; Sober and elegant styling

Quite heavy for the size of screen/versus other ultraportables ; Awkward keyboard arrangement ; Heat vent on right hand side ; Shiny lid may become scratched

The Samsung Q45 is easily one of the most cost-effective ultraportable computers available, and pretty much the only one similar for less than ’,000. The specifications are ideal for the tasks it will perform, and complement the very good battery life...
