A strong showing for a non-Apple Product! EDIT: Included some pointers below! Also, if you have Samsung devices (such as AllShare on your Samsung TV), you can turn off auto-detection in your laptop by clicking the “Show hidden icons” button on the Taskbar and opening the dark grey fan/play icon looking button. You can disable/enable communications as needed between devices and stop those pesky messages from popping up on your TV/device.As I sit down to write a review of this very machine, I ask myself — “Should I review this as a standalone device or should I compare it to other Windows offerings?”Well, I decided I’ll do both since I figure this is a great way to test out the keyboard also. As a standalone device, this blows away my previous HP Pavilion DV6 or something like that.My first impression:Boots up quick from shutdown (like 2 secs?) and on my initial install, since I was already a Win8.1 user, it managed to snag some things off my desktop automatically…
A great ultrabook all round! Just my two cents worth:This is definitely a great laptop, but like all laptops, there are pros and cons to consider. I’ll go over the different aspects:1. Cost: this is a premium laptop and it certainly costs as much. You can find the same system specifications in other brands like for at least $300 cheaper.2.

If you like working at higher brightness levels, you won’t get more than 5-6 hours of battery life.3. Display colour: the colour are bold and brilliant. Some reviewers have mentioned a problem with the display of yellow on the screen. My machine also showed a deep mustard slightly greenish yellow. The problem was fixed through Samsung’s firmware updates, but to the discerning eye, the yellow remains slightly off. In case you’re finicky about these things, you may want to…
