I really thought Sammy was out of the laptop business. Good to have them around.

Most sites reporting on these are laughing at the design and eye rolling a plenty at the garish tech and design choices on these machines. Sorry Samsung, got it wrong again it seems.

Why limit the 15.6 inch model to a GTX1050? Why not offering options? Most "gaming" laptops on offer from competitors offer at least a 1060. I'm not saying you can't game on a 1050, it's powerful enough for a decent gaming experience at 1080p, but you'd think a company wanting to get into the gaming laptop market would offer something a bit more powerful.

But I feel that as with Samsung tablets and phones, while being good, it'll be overpriced because of the Samsung name.

And really, lol big time at the design.

because it's not about what you want , it's all about what discount Samsung got on those 1050 and results from market demands
