Despite pulling out of both Europe and Australia, Samsung is still selling laptops in the US and it’s doing a pretty good job of it. The Notebook 7 Spin is actually a range of the three different two-in-one laptops hitting Best Buy and Samsung’s online store on June 26.
The “Spin” part of the name refers to the 360-degree hinge that lets you fold the screen all the way over for tablet mode or somewhere in between for tent mode. There are three models: two 15.6-inch screen versions with similar configurations and a 13.3-inch lower-end model. That one starts at just $799 while the larger sizes come in at $999 and $1,199.
Samsung is hyping up the Notebook 7 as being “designed for multimedia enthusiasts” and the company has a Video HDR mode built in that will sharpen and enhance colours and textures when turned on. All three models have a Full HD (1,920×1,080-pixel) screen, and the differences break down as such:
The Notebook 7 Spin also has fast-charging technology. Twenty minutes of charge equals 2 hours of battery life, while the device will be fully charged in 90 minutes for the 15.6-inch versions and 100 minutes for the 13.3.
A base 1TB of storage even on the low-end model is a welcome touch, as is the LAN port for both the 15.6-inch models. There’s a USB-C port across the board, along with two USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0 ports. If you’re wondering if there’s a drawback to all this, it’s probably in the weight. At 5 pounds for the big screen and 3.9 pounds for the smaller model, the Notebook 7 spin is pretty hefty, especially compared to the Samsung Notebook 9 which tips the scales at just 2.9 pounds.
