Product Rating: 2.45 star(s) Samsung Q1 Ultramobile PC Reviews

Comments:

Review Verdict: The Samsung Q1's sleek case is definitely eye-catching, but we expect better performance and battery life for a thousand of our hard-earned bucks.

Product Rating: 3.5 star(s) Samsung Q1 Ultra UMPC

Comments:
The Ultra is for ultra wide. While other UMPCs tend to have a boxy, chunky look, the Q1 frame measures just 9-inches wide and slightly under an inch thick. This real estate provides enough space for a 7-inch touchscreen and a split keyboard flanking the l

QuickTake:

Pros: Glossy black finish and sleek design cater to the stylish set. Big 7-inch touchscreen. SD media card slot, standard 3.5-mm headphone jack, Wi-Fi, and fingerprint scanner built in.
Cons: Some input controls (mouse function, buttons for left and right clicks, and four customizable options) are too flat and less effective than the touchscreen-stylus combo. Slow to open and toggle between applications.

Product Rating: 3.15 star(s) Samsung Q1: first ultra-mobile PC

Comments:

Review Verdict: The Samsung Q1 is clever in principle, but it is too large to be truly portable and too small with too short a battery life to be of serious practical use. Early adopters with lots of disposable income will flock to it, but in its current incarnation we s

Product Rating: 1.65 star(s) Samsung Q1-SSD

Comments:
Despite the improved specifications, the Q1-SSD is anything but mobile computing nirvana.

Review Verdict: However, using the Q1 as a portable PC is still another matter. There's no trackpoint, no keyboard and no right-click function for the plastic stylus. The Sony UX27 at least has its small keyboard and mouse buttons, giving you full control over Windows. W

Samsung was quick out of the gates with its UMPC, but now you can get the Q1 with a solid state disk.

Review Verdict: Whether or not you like the idea of an Ultra Mobile PC doesn't change the fact that Samsung has created an impressive technology demonstration with the Q1 SSD. The solid state drive means that there are no moving parts and thus reduces the chance of failu

Samsung's Q1 Ultra helps strengthen the case for the UMPC platform.

Samsung Q1 Ultra ultramobile laptop PC

Comments:
The Samsung Q1 Ultra is a well-designed UMPC (ultra-mobile PC) that's full of potential. Unfortunately, much of the Samsung Q1 Ultra's potential remains unrealised.

Review Verdict: Samsung's Q1 Ultra is intriguing, but more for its potential than its reality. Ideally, UMPCs would be media powerhouses that would be comfortable for light business tasks such as editing documents and for web browsing and email. However, the Samsung Q1 U

QuickTake:

Pros: Full Windows in a very portable format. Screen resolution is high enough for a near-notebook experience and the touch screen is accurate and responsive to finger touch. Good networking with Bluetooth, WiFi and even HSDPA on one model. Navigation software
Cons: Quite slow. Interacting with small on-screen elements like Start Menu program lists, hyperlinks and close boxes take a precise hand (and use of the stylus rather than a finger). The tiny keyboard is better than nothing, but not by much.
