Samsung Series 9 NP900X4C-A03US 15-Inch Vouchers

I got this new Series 9 and immediately noticed the horrifically slow wifi. I searched and found many users having the same problem with this and earlier versions of the Series 9. I almost returned it, and then found that the problem is in the power management settings. The problem is when you are on battery power (not plugged in) the laptop uses the power saving settings. The default "maximum power saving" setting for wifi is WAY underpowered. I found that moving it up one click to "Medium power saving" fixed the wifi and at that setting it is faster than my other PCs. I don't know how much this effects battery life at this point, but it doesn't matter because there is no way to use wifi at the default setting. Good luck!

fyi - you must change the power setting via the Control Panel power settings, the Samsung provided Easy Systems Settings does not allow you to change the wifi power setting.

This laptop checks all the boxes for me. Everything. From the matte 15" screen to 256gb SSD to the insanely thin and light body. While thin, it is very sturdy. It's got a large and very usable trackpad. There are no heat issues. Nothing wrong with this at all. It's not a PLS screen (I don't think) , but it's very bright and viewing angles are good enough for me. I'm coming from a Dell Latitude D630 that I loved. I tried a later Dell and sent it back within an hour. I tried a macbook pro for a year, but never used it and never got off the D630. This thing had me off the D630 on day one (yesterday). It's well worth the money.

I bought this computer as a birthday present for myself (yes I do give myself the best presents) and I'm so pleased with this purchase that I can't even begin to talk about it. It's extremely fast, comes with minimal "software baggage", and was so easy to set up it was a bit of a surprise. It took very little effort to migrate my software and data and I was operational in no time at all. I read that others have had issues with slow WiFi, but that has not been the situation with me. I've had no problems there at all. The screen is probably the best color and brilliance I've ever seen in a computer...it's unbelievable. I highly recommend this Samsung Series 9 i7 processor ultrabook, did I say how fast it was?, to anyone. I've shown it to all my friends and they agree with me about how nice a computer this is. As if that weren't enough, I also received as a gift from a friend, an adapter that I use to stream movies to my HDTV. This computer is the BEST!!
