Samsung GO N310 for AT&T\u00a0 <\/font>
By Samsung <\/a>& AT&T<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/font>\"\"<\/a><\/span>

<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The problems we tend to see with most commercial netbooks
\nare that the quality and capabilities are boiled down to the bare essentials or
\nlack there of. These bare essentials may mean less than 1GB of RAM with a
\nZ-Series Intel Atom processor and a miniscule 120 GB hard drive.\u00a0 <\/span>Just because it\u2019s a \u201csmall laptop\u201d doesn\u2019t
\nmean it should have small features.\u00a0
\n<\/span>Luckily, the Samsung GO N310 has resolved some of those problems with a
\ngreat design and capabilities to match.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 As far as appearance and design, this is the perfect netbook
\nfor those jetsetters who don\u2019t need a bulky laptop and who want the peace of
\nmind that it is not going to \u201cbreak\u201d at any given moment while inside their
\nbackpack. The N310 comes in a variety of colors including sunset orange,
\nmidnight blue, jet black, and mint blue. These vibrant colors in many ways
\ncomplement the smooth clamshell case that closes to reveal a sturdy build and
\ngreat protective seal. There is also an integrated 1.3 MP camera which serves
\nits purpose. The unit weighs around 3 lbs with a 10.1\u201d screen that fits
\nperfectly with its 10.31\u201d x 7.26\u201d x 1.1\u201d dimension. The N310 is wide screen
\nwith an LED display potential of 1024×600. No space is left wasted on this
\nnetbook with a form fitting keyboard and large sized touchpad. The keyboard is
\nsurprisingly comfortable with wide spaced keys and large sized font. The
\ntouchpad on the other hand, although performs its job, would have been that
\nmuch better with dual integrated left and right mouse click. That little left
\nand right mouse click feature would have made a big improvement to the netbook.
\nThe N310 also has an array of ports, jacks, and connections including audio, video,
\nUSB ports and an SD card reader as well as a networking connection for
\nEthernet, Bluetooth, etc. Likewise, the N310 is both Bluetooth compatible and
\nworks on AT&T\u2019s wireless 3G network which will cost around $35.00 – $60.00
\ndepending on what plan you choose. I would recommend the 5GB plan, you save
\nmore money in the long run and the bandwidth will give you more freedom on high
\nactivity websites. <\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The GO N310 is equipped with an Intel Atom N270 processor and
\n1 GB hard drive. Although the N270 processor nowadays is fairly standard for
\nhigher end netbooks, it still provides great processing speed and can handle
\nmusic and video with ease. \u00a0<\/span>On the other
\nhand, I would have liked to see a larger hard drive if the price of the N310 wants
\nto compete with those of 2 GB max hard drive netbooks. However, it can always
\nbe upgraded but still doesn\u2019t reflect in the price. One aspect that I was very
\npleased to see on the N310 was the battery life. What makes a netbook a good
\nnetbook is a long battery life even when playing a game or watching a video.
\nThe netbook runs on a high capacity 6 cell, 8850mAh battery which ran for a
\nlittle less than 8.5 hours on moderate play. On vigorous play, such as playing
\na game or watching a video for the entirety of its battery life, you can expect
\nabout 5.5 hours, which is still very good. <\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The netbook runs on Genuine Windows XP Home operating system
\nand is compatible with the new Windows 7. All you need to do is a simple
\nupgrade and you are ready to go. Likewise, the preinstalled software on the netbook
\nmakes for a much easier experience and is as follows: <\/p>\n

\nfeatures, but with a retail price of $400.00, it doesn\u2019t stack up. If you can
\nfind the N310 for $200.00 – $300.00 that\u2019s more than a fair price and I
\nguarantee you will be satisfied. <\/p>\n
