  • Beautiful design, Solid performance
  • Shallow keyboard, Low-res camera, Short battery life
  • The Samsung Notebook 7 Spin is the most attractive 2-in-1 out there, but its short battery life and shallow keyboard hold it back from greatness...

  • Abstract:  Samsungs gone and done it guys. Its made a perfectly wonderful laptop that retails for under a grand, is of exceptional quality, and is neither under-powered nor teeming with crappy finishes. This is the college-bound laptop everyone, including Apple, h...

  • Like we said before, speed isn't everything, and indeed, a wicked-fast ultrabook with a dead battery won't do you any good at all. So while the Samsung Notebook 7 Spin isn't the fastest 2-in-1 convertible on the block, it boasts an enticing combination of...

  • Excellent value, Snappy keyboard, Very versatile, HDR display
  • Hefty weight, Graphics narrowly miss the mark
  • Fashionably designed using mid-range materials and high-end parts, the Samsung Notebook 7 Spin is an obvious choice to quell MacBook Pro envy. This laptop has the "wow" factor that bargain hunters with taste desire...

  • And you should buy this laptop — at least if you're in the mood for a not-so-lean but very mean Windows machine. Sending a kid to college? Are yourself a kid headed to college? This is the perfect device for you. It's what used to be the bread and butter...

  • If you're looking at larger, premium laptops like the 15-inch MacBook Pro, LG gram 15 or Dell XPS 15 and refuse to pay what they're asking for the power you need, you can stop searching. The Samsung Notebook 7 Spin is one of the best values we've seen lat...

  • Simply put, we love the amount of power, versatility and style you're getting out of the Notebook 7 Spin for what it costs, even at its high end. Did it even have to be a convertible hybrid? Of course not, but its hinge is firm and strong enough so that y
  • While we appreciate the inclusion of dedicated graphics, the chip in question can't push the notebook quite far enough to access a vast library of PC games at playable frame rates on low settings. Just that extra push into the GTX 950M could've made that

  • Solid design with 2-in-1 hinge, Great processor performance, Discrete graphics makes basic gaming possible, Offers a second hard drive
  • Heavy for a 2-in-1, Disappointing display quality, Poor battery life
  • Yes, there are plenty of upsides here. There's a lot of storage space and computing power, and the reversible hinge is about as good as anyone can expect from a 15-inch laptop. But the display is mediocre at best, and battery life is downright abysmal. Wi...
