    • Product Rating: 3.1 star(s) Review: Samsung Q1 Ultra UMPC
      by Edward Distel
    • Pros: Sleek design, bright 7-inch LED WSVGA touch screen display.
    • Cons: No built-in optical drive, impossibly small keyboard, still a bit pricey.
    • Comments:
      It's a cross between a laptop, tablet and PDA. Does this portable mini-computer from Samsung live up to its intriguing design?...

    • Product Rating: 3.5 star(s) Samsung Q1 Ultra UMPC
      by Grace Aquino
    • Pros: Glossy black finish and sleek design cater to the stylish set. Big 7-inch touchscreen. SD media card slot, standard 3.5-mm headphone jack, Wi-Fi, and fingerprint scanner built in.
    • Cons: Some input controls (mouse function, buttons for left and right clicks, and four customizable options) are too flat and less effective than the touchscreen-stylus combo. Slow to open and toggle between applications.
    • Comments:
      The Ultra is for ultra wide. While other UMPCs tend to have a boxy, chunky look, the Q1 frame measures just 9-inches wide and slightly under an inch thick. This real estate provides enough space for a 7-inch touchscreen and a split keyboard flanking the l...

    • Product Rating: 1 star(s) Samsung Q1 Ultra - UMPC and Notebook Reviews by Mobile Tech Review
      by Lisa Gade
    • Pros: Full Windows in a very portable format. Screen resolution is high enough for a near-notebook experience and the touch screen is accurate and responsive to finger touch. Good networking with Bluetooth, WiFi and even HSDPA on one model. Navigation software
    • Cons: Quite slow. Interacting with small on-screen elements like Start Menu program lists, hyperlinks and close boxes take a precise hand (and use of the stylus rather than a finger). The tiny keyboard is better than nothing, but not by much.

      A PC in the palm of your hand. But can the Q1 cut it, or is Samsung's Origamieffort doomed to fold under pressure?...

    • Product Rating: 3.05 star(s) Samsung Q1 Ultra
      by Sandra Vogel
    • Pros: Compact and lightweight, Plenty of interaction options on both the touch-screen and the system itself, Sleek design, Supplied with standard and extended-life batteries
    • Cons: Miniature keyboard is too small for anything but minimal text input, Underpowered for Windows Vista, Currently lacks 3G/HSDPA connectivity, UMPC format has little to offer over existing platforms
    • Comments:
      Samsung has undoubtedly improved the design of the Q1 Ultra, which is a sleeker and more usable device than its predecessor. Unfortunately, Windows Vista's heavy footprint more than cancels out the hardware improvements, leaving this a seriously underpowe...
