Samsung Q430-11

It's cool to look at and cool to the touch. The Samsung Q430-11 does minimalist chic right, sporting a brushed aluminum lid and deck. And this 14-inch notebook matches its panache with snappy performance, thanks to the combination of Core i5 power and mid-range Nvidia graphics. However, the Q430-11 ($829 at Best Buy) isn't very mobile for a 5-pound laptop, delivering below-average battery life. Is this fast and well-designed machine worth that trade-off?Samsung has taken a welcome detour from its attractive but somewhat tired Touch of Color design with the Q430-11. Instead of sporting a glossy black chassis with red accents, this notebook boasts a handsome black brushed aluminum lid and a natural aluminum metal deck. The color combination looks classy, and both the edge-to-edge glass display and the silver strip around the touchpad (which reflects light like a piece of jewelry) add a touch of elegance. The bottom and sides of the laptop are black plastic. Two speakers sit above the chiclet-style keyboard, along with a circular power button and an accompanying blue LED.

Samsung Q430-11

This review is part of our , covering specific fixed configurations of popular systems that can be found in retail stores. In an earlier retail laptop roundup, we were surprised to discover that the $829 Samsung NP-R580-JSB1US was one of the best all-around values in the midrange category. It was a complete package with a Blu-ray drive, Nvidia graphics chip, and an Intel Core i5 processor in a 15-inch body that didn't look half-bad. This time, the $829 Samsung Q430-11 breaks into our retail assortment of laptops at the same price but with a far sleeker design than that of its predecessor. With a Core i5 processor and the same Nvidia GeForce 310M graphics chip found in the R580, this 14-inch metal-clad notebook is a very solid package, but Samsung drops the Blu-ray drive from the package. The Q430-11 may not be quite the steal that the R580 was, but it happens to be a far better looking and feeling laptop. With its premium construction, style, discrete graphics chip, and price, Samsung has created yet another winning laptop. Iinside and out, the Samsung Q430-11 comes across as a premium high-end laptop. Its black brushed-aluminum lid curves gently and feels solid. Inside, Samsung covers the entire keyboard deck in silver-brushed aluminum, but it doesn't carry the metal treatment over to its plastic underside.
