Customer Reviews: Samsung 540U3C 13.3-inch Touchscreen Laptop (Titan Silver) - (Intel Core i3 3217U 1.80GHz Processor, 6GB RAM, 500GB HDD, LAN, WLAN, BT, Webcam, Integrated Graphics, Windows 8)
I bought this laptop 3 weeks ago from John Lewis (it was on offer at the same price as amazon). Prior to buying it I was convinced I didn't want Windows 8. When I went to the shop to try it out I changed my mind completely. The reason? Touchscreen. There are much better reviews of windows 8 out there but simply, if you have a touch screen laptop, it's a great OS. The comic book look of windows 8 takes a little getting used to but when combined with the familiar and still present Windows 7 desktop mode, you'll find yourself using both in a complimentry way.
This Samsung laptop is the perfect machine to show off the benefits of windows 8. Design wise, it's beautiful, easily up there with the mac book air. It's very portable and so far I've been really impressed with the battery life, getting roughly 5 hours of heavey usage.
The 500gb hard drive is a bonus, so many new ultrabooks have silly 128gb SSD, this is just too small for my needs.
I'm no expert on processors and speeds but the start up time and re-start time is extremely quick (except when updates are being carried out).
Only niggle: slightly slow set up time and a few updates needed out of the box.
I love this. I have only had it a few days but the setup was fast. Internet access was instant as was printing from it. It didn't spend time looking for a printer, it was simply instant. Very fast indeed.
It is sleek and well built. I am very impressed with Windows 8 and am surprised some people have given it poor reviews. I find it very easy to navigate. The programmes I have installed are in the block on the right hand side and all other things, suchas email and calendar etc are on the left. The calendar is so easy to access I will be using it all the time. It is a bit like having a slightly bigger tablet with a keyboard.
I bought this to use for graphics and photography software and already it is showing a good buy. I also have an iPad and a stand alone HP. This fits in well with all of these and complements them. I can now get rid of the limited use netbook I have.

The size is perfect - so light and easy to travel with. Very responsive and perfect for those quick business trips where you need a computer but don't want to be burdened with some big old heavy thing.
Love the touch screen - Windows 8 makes much more sense.

Brilliant, just the laptop I was looking for to replace my old PC and having a touchscreen just makes it even better!
