Design
Stylish and, to some extent, efficient design belongs to this laptop. The laptop case is so strong that it is not afraid of minor mechanical damage. Scratches are visible on the laptop panel even with frequent use. The minimum number of fingerprints remains on the surface. So in any case, the design will be practical and reliable.
Samsung's dimensions (379.8X255.5X29.9-36.2) and weight of 2.5 kg will not allow taking it on the road very often.
Display and sound
With a 15.6 inch TFT screen with an aspect ratio of 16: 9, you can enjoy high quality movies without black bars on the sides. The glossy LCD display with WXGA 1366x768 dots has good viewing angles. There is less distortion on the horizontal sides of the screen than on the vertical sides. LED backlighting has greatly improved the brightness level. It should be noted that such a screen will last much longer.
The installed SuperBright technology copes well with displaying high quality images on displays in street lighting conditions.
The built-in 0.3 Mp web camera is perfect for video calls in chat and video conferencing organizations. A microphone with a noise suppression system is convenient here, with the help of which your interlocutor will hear a clear speech during a conversation. This camera will still be able to record videos, only high quality should not be expected. It is much better to take pictures with a resolution of 640x480 pixels with such a camera.
The laptop contains an Intel High Definition Audio speaker system with two 1W stereo speakers located above the keyboard. Acoustics thanks to SRS technology provide excellent effects and high quality 24 - bit stereo sound.
Keyboard and touchpad
RV508 keyboard, consisting of 100 keys and a separate numeric keypad, with a very comfortable layout. For a large number of numeric data sets, a 17-key NumPad is provided. As for the labeling of the keys, they are convenient in that the Cyrillic and Latin characters do not merge, since they have different marking colors.
Under the keyboard, just to the left of the center, there is a touchpad with a very sensitive surface, which makes it easy to position the cursor. The TouchPad is free to scroll vertically and also supports simple touch functions.
Package and processor
The company delivers the Samsung RV508 laptop without a preinstalled operating system. On the one hand, this pleases, because you can choose and install the system that you like best and is suitable for working with a laptop, and on the other hand, you will not be able to start working immediately after purchasing. It should be noted that all system information is recovered using Samsung Recovery Solution.
Speaking of the package bundle, I will say that this device relies on a battery, a power supply for charging and all the necessary documentation.
The main component of the RV508 notebook is the Intel Celeron T3500 processor with a clock frequency of 2.1 GHz, which is distinguished by its high performance. Powerful modern dual-core T3500 with 1 Mb cache - memory of the second level will allow you to perform daily tasks at a high level. At the same time, power consumption does not increase 35 watts. Thanks to such a processor, you get not only great opportunities, but also efficiency in work.
For fast operation of the laptop, there is a 2 GB DDRIII RAM, which consists of two strips. Enough will be 320 gigabytes of hard drive space for data storage. The SATA hard drive operates at 5400 rpm.
The graphics are made from an integrated Intel GMA HD graphics card. With the help of DVMT 4.0 technology, the video system uses 256 Mb of allocated memory from the RAM. Of course, you won't be able to play normally with such a video card, but the graphics chip will allow you to decode video and even play Blue-Ray.
Ports, optical drive, card reader
This device is not rich in a large number of ports. The set of interfaces for the RV508 laptop is rather modest, but you can still find everything you need here.
On the right side of the laptop, there is a DVD-RW Super Multi Dual Layer optical drive. This drive copes well with playing dual layer and standard discs.
On the side faces there are three USB 2.0 ports (two one below the other on the right side - it's not very convenient, and the third one on the left), an RJ45 network card connector and an analog VGA output to connect an external monitor. In addition to all this, there is a device for reading memory cards in the format: MMC, SD, SDHC, SDXC.
To connect external speakers or headphones, there is an audio output. There is a line-in for a microphone.
You can enjoy the high speed of data transfer using a Wi-Fi adapter (802.11 b / g / n), as well as connect to the Internet anywhere and anytime, only in the coverage area.
Battery
Long battery life is not worth waiting for. The laptop will be able to work for about 3 hours using a 6-cell battery with a capacity of 60 W and a capacity of 4400 mAh.
conclusions
For constantly working users who solve many different tasks, the Samsung RV508 laptop will suit everything. The advantages of this device include high performance, stylish design and good display. You can also note the keyboard with a full-fledged digital block of buttons. But there are also small drawbacks such as a weak video card and I would very much like to see more interfaces, especially HDMI.
