Samsung unveils the Atom-powered N310 netbook
After the Atom-equipped NC10 and Nano-boasting NC20, Samsung has now wen back to Intel's 'loving arms' for its third netbook, the N310. Set to arrive quite soon in all major markets, the rather curvy N310 features a 10-inch LCD screen, an Atom CPU (likely clocked at 1.6 GHz but the actual model has yet to be revealed), a total weight of about 1.23kg and a battery life that will reach 5 or up to 11 hours, depending on version.
The new netbook will arrive in the four colors seen below, have 1GB of RAM and an 160GB hard drive, WiFi, Ethernet, HSDPA, Bluetooth 2.0, a 1.3 megapixel camera and a 3-in-1 card reader. Samsung didn't mention any price tag for the N310 but hopefully it will be competitive.
Samsung has expanded its netbook line with the addition of N310. The netbook has been designed in such a way that it eliminates LCD frame as well as gives a smooth look on the outside. Though the netbook is touted to be a fashion statement with a friendly design, I think the choice of colors and a big Sammy logo spanked at the back gives it a toyish feeling.
The 10.1-inch netbook weighs just 1.23kg with an unspecified Intel Atom processor, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, Wi-Fi, HSDPA, WiBRO, Bluetooth 2.0, 3-in-1 card reader, 1.3MP camera, 3 USB ports and chiclet styled keyboard.
