  • Samsungs Q1, the first Ultra Mobile PC (UMPC), lacks the portability of a handheld and falls short of the functionality of a notebook. Unfortunately, it doesnt add anything that would compensate for these failings...

  • Abstract:  The NP-Q1 works like a dream for multimedia, and its flash memory puts it on the cutting edge. But businesspeople might want to look elsewhere

  • Abstract:  Now that I have concluded my series on the Samsung Q1 UMPC, I thought it would be appropriate to share a few closing thoughts. I had the device for a little over a month (actually, from Thanksgiving to New Years). In that time, I had an opportunity...

  • Abstract:  I have had the Samsung Q1 UMPC for almost a month now. In computer parlance, that should make it nearly obsolete as new models are being released almost daily. So that means I should get moving on my ongoing series of articles about this remarkable...

  • Abstract:  Today well take a look at Q1, Samsungs vision of an UMPC. With excellent screen, multimedia capabilities and just about everything user needs (note: just about everything), Q1 is really "something else". IF you were to appear somewhere with Q1 in you...

  • Abstract:  If we gently ease Apple into an out-of-mind drawer then it becomes fair to say that the award for most anticipated hardware of the year goes to the UMPC, March’s Origami campaign for which persuaded some, at least momentarily, that Microsoft was hip...

  • Beautiful, featherweight design; decent-size screen; multiple methods to navigate menus and input text; plenty of networking options; dual-mic array.
  • Lacks keyboard; poor performance; short battery life; weak speaker sound.
  • The Samsung Q1s sleek case is definitely eye-catching, but we expect better performance and battery life for a thousand of our hard-earned bucks.
