  Beware of Samsung QA when it comes to laptops! I bought one only to have the screen flicker like an analog television. Returned it as soon as I could.

    Find a better ULTRABOOK deal zhenwen… They're entirely different categories of laptops all together.

      Current zenbook deal at msy looks to be better value

      Hybrid drive instead of just an ssd, and has a discrete gpu, otherwise very similar specs for $300 less

        Add to that an extra 300g. And did they fix the keyboard issues?

        uh no its not
        the ux32 is asus's ultrabook with dedicate gfx
        this instantly means, bigger, thicker, heavier, and worse battery life.
        also that particular model has a crap screen

        and ssd > hybrid drive

        The samsung is full magnesium alloy. Go to a store and have a play with it yourself, it screams premium and poops all over apple

        that being said, REP, are you able to stock tablets too like tf810c

  What is the battery life on this. I notice it only has a 4 cell battery?

    Up to 8 hours - it is only a 4 cell battery but the CPU is an ultralow voltage CPU + the SSD uses minimal power also.

  The Samsung is a very neat machine - great screen, decent keyboard.

  But: not enough RAM and not upgradable. 4GB RAM is unacceptable - and (like Apple with their Macbook Air) Samsung soldered the RAM straight onto the board. :-(

  So while I sometimes wish for a better screen and keyboard, I am very glad I got this one instead: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/80721

    Same, damn nice, not a Samsung fan but they are good at making slim sized electronics and great specs too

  At this price, it is just pay for the brand..

    team teri on 18/01/2013 - 12:44

    Which other brand does better on price with the similar specs? Main spec to match: weight.

        Ouch, what would the weight of that monster be?

        My comments above implied that the Samsung is a very fine machine and the specs would make it worth the price you charge - for someone who can live with 4GB of RAM.

        But the fact that you can't upgrade the RAM make it useless for anyone who wants to do more than web browsing (even intensive browsing with 40+ open tabs will make it run out of memory).

        That is one big design flaw! Even Apple offers the Macbook Air with 8GB, Samsung does not. An otherwise neat piece of hardware rendered useless for many users…

        Hi team teri,
        boxed weight = 2kg
        unit weight = 1.2kg

      • 

        team teri on 18/01/2013 - 13:09

        The Samsung, yes. But the HP you linked will be very close to 2kg.

        HP is 1.45kg, still an ultrabook!

    Suggest an alternative with similar specs.
    Most 'Ultrabooks' are not true ultrabooks, they don't have an SSD drive.

    These are thinner than a Macbook Air.

      Ultrabook essentially is light weight laptop with extended battery life, typically caused by an ultra-low voltage CPU. SSD's are definately great to have in an ultrabook, but they don't draw the line from ultrabooks and true ultrabooks based off this fact.

      It really depends on the manufacturers intended price point, if they want to make a cheap ultrabook they use HDD, if they want to make a premium ultrabook they use an SSD :)

  I've got the Series 9 i7 15", very nice machine, responsive, best notebook i've ever owned (and i've churned though a few!). Found the 13" was short on ports, so make sure it has what you need.

  Do you guys have the 15 inch version by any chance?

  Is this 3rd generation chip?
