Samsung to Release NC20 in Febuary

According to Notebook Italia, Samsung will be releasing a new netbook model called NC20 in February 2009.


The Samsung NC20 will have the following specs:

• 12.1-inch display
• 1.3 GHz VIA Nano U225 processor
• 1GB RAM
• 160 GB Hard Drive
• 3-in-1 card reader
• Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet
• 1.3 megapixel camera

The price of the NC20 will be around around $642. By looking at the spec above, the NC20 which comes with a 12-inch display and VIA Nano processor might not be considered as a netbook, but just a budget notebook instead. But being named as NC20, Samsung might want to relate it with the NC10, and still categorize it as netbook.

Samsung to Release NC11 Netbook?

Samsung NC10 netbook is popular with its great performance.. and probably due to the success of Samsung's first netbook, looks like the company is now planning to release a new model called NC11.

Samsung has put up the manual for NC11 on their official website. Although it's in Korean language, we can see that there isn't much between NC10 and NC11, except for NC11 being available in Windows Vista and using Intel 945GSE chipset instead of Intel 945GME which NC 10 is using.

Samsung NC10 Reviewed - Probably The Best Netbook

Laptop Magazine has recently made a review for the Samsung NC10 netbook, and found this machine to be probably one of the best in the 10-inch netbook market.

Overall, Laptop Magazine rated this netbook 4 out of 5 stars. What's being the most impressive feature for the NC10, is the long battery life (6-cell) which can last for 6 hours and 34 minutes.

"Until now, no other netbook has been able to match the 10-inch MSI Wind’s endurance, strong performance, and spacious keyboard. Samsung’s NC10 is the only product that provides comparable—and even improved—features for a lower price. Its comfortable, well-positioned keyboard, speedy and spacious hard drive, and more than 6 hours of endurance make the $499 Samsung NC10 the most well-rounded 10-inch netbook on the market."

The Samsung NC10 netbook is expected to be released in the US soon for $499.
