Product Description

Product Description

If you want practical usability and reliable performance at an affordable price then the Samsung RV520 notebook has it all – and more. Its stylish design, incorporating an ergonomic Island keyboard, looks like a top of the range model. With a powerful NVIDIA GeForce GT 520M* graphics card its 15.6'' HD LED display produces the sharpest images and boldest colours, with the most accurate widescreen representation of movies and games. The addition of genuine Windows 7 Home Premium* means everyday tasks are much simpler, and its unique Fast Start technology also lets you wake your notebook from sleep mode within seconds of opening the lid or pressing the power button. And with Samsung’s PhoneShare you can even connect to the Internet using your smartphone – so you can browse, socialise or send e-mails wherever you are.

Designed for great value

Offers great all-round value by combining outstanding quality and performance, as well as multiple finishes – in white, black or wine red. Its ergonomic features, including an Island keyboard, also ensure a more enjoyable and productive user experience.

Crafted for style and safety

Because a life on the go can often trip you up, the Samsung RV520 was crafted to not let you down. In fact, its high quality craftsmanship extends as much to its exterior as to its high performance inner workings. Built to withstand bumps and knocks, the RV520 comes with a robust, durable casing designed to keep its contents safe and sound as well as reduce the risk of scratches and fingerprints. And its ergonomic, stylish design makes it as coolly eye-catching as it is reliable.

Get online almost anywhere

The RV520 incorporates advanced communications technologies, including 802.11bg/n wireless, to provide high-speed access to the Internet and your data anytime and anywhere.

A picture that’s close to perfection

The RV520’s 16:9 aspect ratio immerses you in games and movies with an accurate representation — so you don’t have annoying black bands crowding your picture. You’ll watch movies the way they were meant to be seen. And see images that are fine-tuned with the sharpest details and boldest colours on a 15.6 inch screen.

Samsung Recovery Solution

Peace of mind is here in the form of Samsung’s Recovery Solution. It automatically and regularly backs up your PC data to the hard drive. So you can quit worrying and quit manually backing up your files.

4.0 out of 5 stars Compact, light, quite fast, and good HD screen 12 Nov 2011
Style Name:4GB RAM, 500GB HDD
My old Dell 17" laptop was getting v slow and kept crashing, so when I was recommended this machine by a source I respect, I went for it. Generally very pleased with it, good screen definition, quite quick, does all I need. Being very old, I find it tiresome to have to learn the new wrinkles in the latest windows format, but 7 is MUCH better than Vista, and easier to use IMO.It comes with a limited version of M/S office which is totally adequate for my use.I don't notice the smaller screen in an adverse way, except to note the battery last much longer on this machine. I'd probably get it again if this one was pinched.

4.0 out of 5 stars Looks and feels high quality 19 Oct 2011
By Bob
Style Name:4GB RAM, 500GB HDD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've had this computer for a week. It looks good in silver and black and has a satisfying feel of quality. It looks and feels like a more expensive machine. The lid has a fine rib finish which cuts down on finger marks but which I suppose could collect dirt in time. It comes with a Samsung Recovery Media DVD on which it says that it contains a 64 bit version of the operating system. By default the setup process will create two user partitons, C and D, but offers you the alternative of setting just one. Of course there are also system and recovery partitions. There is some Samsung bloatware but it isn't intrusive as, apart from shortcuts, nothing will come on screen unless you ask for it. So far the performance has been good for a general purpose home computer. I've not used very demanding programmes like high speed games. At first I found the flat keys a bit awkward but they are fine once you get used to them. I've only given four stars because of a few minor niggles. The display on my computer had a red hue which I've had to adjust in Windows 7 (though the screen is bright and clear once adjusted). The charging/full charge light is so tiny that it can only be seen at very close range. None of this would have put me off buying the Samsung and I'd buy again knowing what I now know.
