6 of 6 people found the following review helpful Great Travel Computer, August 10, 2015 This review is from: Samsung ATIV Book 9 NP930X2K-K02US 12.2-Inch Laptop (Imperial Black) (Personal Computers) Good computer overall. It is an excellent travel size while still being large enough to get work done. Many 11.6 inch laptop cases fit it as do many Surface Pro 3 cases so you won't be without options. It takes a little time to get use to the keyboard due to the size differences of the keys but it isn't too bad. There is no back-lighting to the keyboard but that wasn't something I needed. Performance wise it does fairly well for basic computational needs. I, however, wouldn't recommend using it for anything processor intensive. I'll try to update my comment here as I use the computer but as it stands it is exactly what I wanted and expected. 0 Help other customers find the most helpful reviews Was this review helpful to you? 10 of 12 people found the following review helpful Premium Underperformer, November 22, 2015 This review is from: Samsung ATIV Book 9 NP930X2K-K02US 12.2-Inch Laptop (Imperial Black) (Personal Computers) The Samsung ATIV Book 9 looks reasonable on paper and and feels like it's worth the high price tag, but delivers poor value in terms of performance and actual usage. The fit and finish are exceptional, and the unboxing experience rivals an Apple product. The notebook is light but doesn't feel flimsy or cheap in any way. The keyboard is good for a notebook of this size. The keys feel nice to type on and the arrow keys are thoughtfully placed. The trackpad is one of the better I've used. Like most trackpads it clicks easiest at the bottom, but it's light and smooth enough that you can press it just about anywhere you finger lies and it will register a click. The specifications on this unit are embarrassingly poor for a notebook of this price: 4GB RAM, a 0.9 GHz processor, and 128 MB storage. There is a fair amount of Samsung bloatware pre-loaded. One of those programs actually threw up an error the very first time I started up the notebook (and...

In addition, it is powered by the fifth-generation ultra-low-voltage Intel Core M-5Y31 mobile processor, which delivers excellent performance, low power consumption, long battery life and run time, low heat generation, and a fanless and silent system. Without a doubt, this 12.2-Inch Samsung ATIV Book 9 NP930X2K-K01US model is a truly outstanding portable computer. A considerable degree of design and engineering expertise was required to create such an incredibly thin and light notebook computer, that is still so well-equipped and capable, despite its super-slim...
