In case you were curious about the Samsung NC20’s battery life, and wanted to know if it was any better than that of the Samsung NC10, NetbookNews.de has posted a short Samsung NC20 battery life benchmarking story which shows how long the NC20 lasts on a single charge in different situations. With all the setting maxed and wireless connectivity on, the Samsung NC20 achieved just a little over 2 hours of battery life. While a standard test yielded exactly 4 hours of juice. Not bad for a battery that’s bundled with the device. It should last longer with aftermarket 6-cell batteries, but the point is this: the Samsung NC20 provides great battery life out of the box, which is a good thing for mobile computing enthusiasts who are eyeing to get this 12-inch netbook.

Japanese Impress benchmarked latest MSI Wind PC and compared the performance with the other most popular mini laptops on the market.

Main test was performance of the Intel’s Atom processors with typical ULV Core 2 Duo found in ASUS Eee PC models and Sony Vaio VGN-TZ90S with Intel Core 2 Duo ULV U7600.

Leaving aside the performance of integrated graphics and storage, clearly influenced by the type of hard disk or SSD installed, it is curious to note how Atom Z520 from 1.33GHz is unable to compete against the Celeron M 353 from 900MHz Asus Eee PC 900. via [Impress]
