Samsung N150-JA02

This basic netbook is more expensive than the alternatives while also having worse overall specs.


For $429 the Samsung N150-JA02 is not a competitively priced netbook. Cheaper nerbooks from other manufacturers have much better specs, and while a discount to the tune of $180 would help the N150 become good value for money again it's still probably better to go with an alternative that has an Intel Atom N550 or AMD Fusion C-50.

What the N150 does have is an Intel Atom N450 (1.66GHz) processor that is reasonable enough for most simpler productivity applications. The 1GB of RAM and onboard graphics are pretty much standard for a netbook, so no complaints there at least.

A 250GB hard drive is small but is up to par with the plethora of otherwise better specced alternatives. The 10.1in (1,024x600 resolution) screen is also up to par, and at least the portability of the N150 is slightly better than average for a netbook. It weighs 1.24kg and measures 34.7mm thick, 188.5mm deep and 264mm wide.
