If you’re looking for a new netbook, or still haven’t picked one up, Amazon.De have a great price on the Samsung NC10. The netbook has proved to be very popular with over 1.5 million units shipped and is a top netbook. Last time we saw a price reduction on the NC10 on Amazon.de it was down to 375 Euros, or more for the black model. The netbook can now be found in both white and black on Amazon for 299 Euros including free shipping.

Samsung NC10 spotted for 299 Euros

Samsung ship 1.5 Million NC10 Netbooks

QueenB — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 22:29:11 +0000

The Samsung NC10 has proven to be very popular, which is now backed up by shipping numbers. Not surprisingly, the sleek netbook has shipped 1.5 million units worldwide since it’s release 8 months ago. The NC10 features the standard netbook specs, 10.2 inch display, 160GB HDD, 1GB of RAM etc but, at a slightly higher price in the UK. However when browsing the netbook display in my local PC World, the NC10 is still the netbook which stands out above the rest, so it isn’t surprising to see so many units shipped. It would be more interesting to see how many have actually been purchased though. Hopefully this figure will become public soon as well.

Samsung N510 unboxed and compared with NC10

QueenB — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 23:41:10 +0000

Over at NetbookNews.de one of their lucky readers has received the new Samsung N510 which is not considered a netbook, but rather part of the CULV movement. Specs of the N510 are quite similar to what you would find on a netbook, apart from the screen size and using NVidia ION technology. The Samsung N510 features an 11.6 inch display, along with 1GB of RAM, 160GB HDD, Intel Atom N270 CPU along with built in WiFi, Bluetooth and a web camera. One other small feature you won’t find on many netbooks, is the N510 features one HDMI port as well as three USB ports. With the larger display also brings a larger resolution of 1366 x 768.

Joerg has unboxed the Samsung N510 with photos and shown it in many different angles. But not only that, the N510 has been put along side Samsung’s popular netbook the NC10.

When looking at the two machines while closed, there doesn’t seem to be much of a difference, but when the devices are opened up the difference is size is clear. The keyboard spreads out a bit and makes use of the extra chassis size. The trackpad is also considerably bigger than that of the NC10, but still small in comparison to notebooks. You can view the rest of the photos after the jump.

Samsung ND10 $50 less than NC10

QueenB — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 11:38:24 +0000

Over at Netbook News, they’ve spotted a netbook identical to the NC10 in China. The model of the netbook is ND10 and is practically identical to it’s predecessor the Nc10. Featuring a 10 inch display, along with N270 Intel Atom CPU. The main difference between the two netbooks however, is the ND10 doesn’t come loaded with an Operating System. Customers can either purchase XP to install on it, or stick with a free operating system like Linux, Ubuntu, Android, etc. With the NC10 being phased out and replaced with the N110, N310 and N510, it’s unlikely that this netbook will be spotted outside of China.

Samsung NC10 hack adds 3G to netbook

QueenB — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 18:26:20 +0000

A hack and instructions on how to perform it, show users how to add 3G into their Samsung NC10. The downside to the hack however is that you use the WiFi. The WiFi adapter is switched for a 3G modem instead. The hack is very easy to perform though and WiFi can be replaced with a USB WiFi dongle, giving you the best of both worlds, espcially if you find you use both a lot.

The hardest part is taking the case off and opening it up. Once inside the WiFi adapter can be popped out and replaced with the 3G modem. Additional modification could also be made on the netbook, to allow easy SIM swapping by making a small hole in the bottom and soldering the 3G modem in, as jkkmobile have done to a Dell Mini 9. You can view the steps here.

Samsung NC10 hack adds 3G to netbook

Samsung sells over 1 million NC10 netbooks

QueenB — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 22:00:27 +0000

The popular, if not slightly overpriced for what it is, Samsung NC10 has reached over one million sales. The netbook, which is designed very stylishly, features the regular netbook specs, but at a slightly higher price of about £30 in the UK. The netbook has been in stores for 8 months now, starting in October 2008 and has finally reached 1 million sales. Asus and Acer may have already reached these points and more, while Samsung is more traditionally known for their TV and cellphones. One million is quite an achievement and it’s sure to be no time at all until the NC20, also by Samsung reaches that mark as well.

Samsung NC10 adds 4G support in Russia

QueenB — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 00:11:36 +0000

Over in Russia, Samsung have partnered with Yota to bring consumers there a 4G version of their popular netbook, the NC10. The netbook will be the first to offer 4G support in Russia, which adds support for WiMAX technology.

Bringing in support for 4G with Yota will give the NC10 up to 10MB download speeds via a mobile carrier, which is quite impressive when most countries, such as the UK, give 10MB home broadband for an additional cost of lower speed broadband.

Other specifications of the Samsung NC10 will remain the same. The 4G model will become available from today, 23rd March and will retail for 19,990 RUB.

Samsung NC10 activation problems with Vista Enterprise via KMS

David Gonzales — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 05:37:13 +0000

No matter how many colors of the Samsung NC10 you buy, you won’t be able to get one and with Windows XP installed and upgrade it to Windows Vista Enterprise. Well, actually, you can install Vista Enterprise on it, but you will fail at activating it via KMS. There are two known causes for why this is happening, and both are documented on Microsoft’s pages. If you plan on doing the same thing with a future Samsung NC10, better check out a thread about it on Edugeek which we’ve linked to below to see the discussion.

Samsung NC10 gets new colors in Hong Kong

David Gonzales — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 03:51:45 +0000

While the Samsung NC10 looks fine in white or black, your girl might want to get it in a different color, like say, pink, or blue. Well, in case she does, you’ll now be able to satisfy her demand, thanks to Samsung itself provided that you live in, are near, or are going to Hong Kong. That’s because Samsung Hong Kong has just launched the NC10 in three new colors, which are: Azurine Blue, Deep Sea Blue and Cherry Pink. The one in Deep Sea Blue has already been available from Amazon for quite some time now, but the two other brighter colors are also equally attractive. You’re going to have to wait until a reseller decides to ship it internationally, though. But it’s nice to know that these are finally available.
