Help with new computer!

It's between Samsung series 9 and 7, which one looks best? Both are very good but notice that the series 9 cost more than the 7 (just a little bit). Series 9 is a ultrabook, and 7 is a computer.

Series 9 pictures: (15'')

Series 7 pictures: (14'')

I think I will go for the series 9 because it is more thin, ultrabook and bigger. What would you bought?

[-Logic-]

If you think you have the extra money for it, and that it'd be worthwhile to go for the Series 9 then I'd prompt you to purchase it.

[Merita]

I would buy Series 9

Well, It Depends on the Quality, Not just how it looks...

[shanee]

you should definitely get a mac. but does the 1s one have a cd holder?

[Mechanized God]

I personally wouldn't buy a laptop, But to each their own.

[megaamine]

i would get a Sony Vaio

Quality on both are very good, watched many reviews and on almost every they gave 6.

Series 9 is a ultrabook which I want, plus bigger and more sexy... You can play games from what i've seen on series 9 (Skyrim, crysis 2 etc) but it will not be full HD because it isnt a gaming PC. Most people i've been asking says series 9 soooo... But worth asking here too. The series 9 cost 10k (Almost mac price -_-)

No, and that can be terrible for some people but not me. If I wanna watch something then I use my PS3 or download on my computer.

The first is thin as hell (which most ultrabooks are). Macbook is just too small and cost way to much... like 15'' cost 17k ffs

[~Puppet Master~]

Have you tried thinking about the specs instead of how it looks?

10k? 10000 euro? dafuq

[Mechanized God]

If you buy a laptop, buy a ASUS... Trust me.

[Zlad]

Duh, what do you think I've done the last month? I have been checking up computers that fits me, and they both do it. And when both have what I want then I will go for the design look.

A thin ultrabook is good if you want to go with it to other places like school.

If you buy a laptop, buy a ASUS... Trust me.

I know the ASUS ultrabook is the best, but it cost much more.

10k? 10000 euro? dafuq

No... Norwegian money. That is 1807.07 U.S. Dollars

[Unbiased King]

What steered me away from those series in particular was that the trackpad.

But if I had to, I'd go with the S9 just because it's 15" and thin.

EDIT: To add, ultrabooks come with weaker processors. Just something to think about if you haven't already.

[silmarill]

No dont buy acer its fodder

I think you mean 1k.

[Zlad]

I think you mean 1k.

I meant 10k norwegian money, but for dollars it is 1,8k

[Narutohokage7]

Depends on what it is used for. If the Series 9 has better specifications get that as it would perform tasks faster, but if you aren't gonna be working with software that needs faster tech get the cheaper one.

[YowYan]

series 9 wease:

[Kurama999]

Series 9 - is the latest version.
Smaller number eg Series 7 or 5, is the older version.

Buying a pc whether laptop or desktop, etc. you need to understand certain things.
-What is your need and/or purpose of getting the new pc for.
-Budget, ignore this if it is not an issue to you
-Spec. CPU speed; >3.0 Ghz CPU dual core; quad core, RAM= 8MB at least; etc. and video graphic
-Fixed Additional. Include DVD-Writer, USB 3.0 (how many you need minimum - for printer, mouse, additional Hard disk [to watch movies which should be store in External HDD ), Wireless (speed g/n), hard disk storage - 500GB to 1TB. External Monitor connector (so that you can connect to, say 42" TV with monitor connection - to watch movie) **Fixed Additional - so that you do not carry or add more device and carry along = weight.
-Bag: Get a good bag with enough space and protection to the LED or LCD. To protect your investment.
-Battery. This is very important if you use it outside, most of the time. If plenty of money - get a spare battery.
-Warranty. Make sure it come with International Warranty card. Note. Buy from distributor or well-known company (being in retail for many years, NOT just new company). Keep your receipt.
-Handover. When you just paid, let their sales staff to open and check for any damages, scratch (especially the LCD), etc, in front of them. When you are home, run the pc - let it on for a many hours. If there is fault, it will show. [it did happen to me, and they get another new on to replace, on the spot. Follow the same procedure, and make sure what you see them put back into the box and you immediately take over. This is to avoid them to change to another one. Believe me, i saw this happened before.]
**Get everything you need (think) so that to avoid going another shop to get accessories. If the accessories was not bought from them, any problem you have, they will blame the accessories of other shop.

Tested out both, I feel the keyboard on the series 9 is not that 'hot' as the series 7. I'm pretty unsure now, maybe i'll just take my money and ask the guy in the shop many questions about what is best for me.

[Ragnaroc]

my best advice is to get the best bang for your buck. choose your budget than find the best stats you can and the best reviewed laptop.

personally i have/had two HP laptops both of them ultrathins and havn't paid more than 700 US dollars for them. my current one has a AMD A6 2.10 ghz processor, 6 gigs of ram, 250gb ssd and gets close to 10 hrs battery life if i'm on moderate usage. just food for thought

[Anduril]

Well I would have gone for the ultrabook. Though you have not mentioned the specs and all....... what work you want to have it for etc...

So cannot really advice ya...

Also don't worry much about the keyboard, you can usually get an external wireless one.
