Even on a budget, you can afford the best. A workhorse that harmonizes practical features with graceful style, the Samsung RV520 laptop features a 15.6-inch sharp and colorful high-definition LED-backlit LCD screen. Other convenient features include built-in stereo speakers with SRS 3D Sound Effect audio enhancements and a low-light webcam. This model (NP-RV520-A01US) includes a 500 GB hard drive and 4 GB of RAM.
It's powered by a second-generation Intel Core i3 dual-core processor, which provides breakthrough digital media management, content creation, and 3D gaming capabilities.
It comes pre-installed with the Microsoft Windows 7 Professional operating system. You'll also experience new ways to deliver your best work with Office Starter 2010 (learn more below).
The RV515's 15.6" LED-backlit LCD HD display produces bright, colorful HD images and is combined with SRS premium sound for impressive gaming and multimedia. With a 16:9 aspect ratio, you can watch true HD movies in true widescreen format that fits the full size of the screen, without any black bands. You'll see images that are fine-tuned with the sharpest details and boldest colors.
You no longer have to shut down your Samsung computer, just close its lid and it goes into a special powerless sleep mode. When you open the lid your computer comes back to life in 3 seconds and you are exactly at the same place as when you shut the lid. Fast Start saves your data and system configurations to your hard drive and PC memory. So, when you power it back on it is just like you left it.
The RV515 lets you easily connect to your digital life, with 3 USB 2.0 ports to connect your camera, printer and phone, VGA for an external monitor, RJ45 LAN to easily connect to a network, and a 4-in-1 multi-card slot to wirelessly transfer media such as videos, music and photos. And if you need to be in touch face-to-face, the built-in webcam makes videoconferencing possible from virtually anywhere.
Amazing HD Audio Since sound is as important as vision, we gave the RV515 SRS Premium Sound processing, for the ultimate audio experience. The HD audio delivered with SRS will make your movies, music, TV, and games sound natural and realistic.
