The Samsung NC10 netbook has had a pre-release unboxing and benchmark photoshoot, pitting the NC10 against ASUS’ Eee PC 901. While falling short of a full review, it does tell us that the keyboard is more usable than the Eee PC’s - thanks to larger keys - and the trackpad, though relatively small, works well. [...]
If you don’t like the idea of a USB modem dangling precariously out of the side of your notebook, Sprint also have an ExpressCard option for users of its high-speed XOHM WiMAX service. The Samsung SWC-E100 is the first such modem for the newly launched network, with a flip-up antenna and the promise of average [...]
Biggest news this week has been in gaming, with Nintendo announcing the latest iteration of their DS handheld. The DSi introduces new multimedia features - for instance a 3-megapixel camera - and an even thinner body, at the expense of battery life. Don’t get too excited, though; the US won’t see the DSi until “well [...]
KDDI have been demonstrating two new displays that will likely find their way into future cellphones from the company. On show at CEATEC JAPAN 2008, the first panel is a 3.1-inch OLED running at 800 x 480 WVGA resolution; developed by Samsung, it offers the usual improved color reproduction and lower power requirements of OLED [...]
Samsung’s NC10 netbook is garnering more and more interest, with new higher-resolution images showing a well-laid-out keyboard that makes fewer concessions to a smaller casing than, say, the Dell Inspiron Mini 9. The 1.6GHz Atom CPU, 1GB of RAM and 10.2-inch 1024 x 600 display are confirmed; what’s new to us is that the VGA [...]
If you like to film a lot of impromptu video or simply want a recording solution for traveling and what not, the Samsung VM-MX25E digital media camcorder has the H.264 codec, making uploading videos straight to YouTube incredibly easy.
This is Steve Weinger, senior marketing manager for flash memory at Samsung. In his hand is a Samsung SSD; off to the right is a three-story drop. Since solid-state memory is always being credited with extra durability over traditional drives, Steve introduces the SSD to the drop by launching it off the side of the [...]
Samsung have taken the wraps off of the industry’s smallest 2GB DDR3 memory chips, built using 50nm processes, which allows for 60-percent higher productivity than DDR2 chips of an equivalent density. It opens the door for up to 16GB RIMMS (Registered In-line Memory Modules) that save 40-percent of the power required for the same RIMM [...]
Samsung have announced their latest touchscreen 3G cellphone, the Pixon, complete with a 3.2-inch 240 x 400 WQVGA touchscreen, 7.2Mbps HSDPA (2100MHz) and an 8-megapixel camera with autofocus. Measuring 13.8mm thick, Samsung have proclaimed the Pixon to be “the world’s slimmest full-touch 8-megapixel camera phone”, which unless I’m mistaken is a pretty sparsely populated niche to begin [...]
Samsung have unveiled a straightforward way to add wireless image transfer to cameras without it. The Nabee system uses a pair of dongles - one USB, that plugs into your PC, and another that plugs into the camera’s USB port - that can then emulate a standard USB cable for high-speed transfers up to 10m [...]
