                                                 The  notebook are very common to use but the main problem is that we are unable to determine our needs/ requirements and the second thing is that, people are unable to choose a perfect choice according to their budget. Some of my friends had that bad experience as well and when they purchase their notebook without doing research, they disappoint with the performance of their notebooks. Samsung is a well-known brand for its great build quality and decent looking notebooks so today we are going to review an Samsung notebook which is Samsung Series 3 350E7C.


                                                The Samsung Series 3 350E7C has a sleek design which is very attractive and the black and dark-grey color scheme is quite suitable for a notebook as well. The plastic and aluminum are used in the making of Samsung Series 3 350E7C. The lid is made quite stylish and there are well finished surface with lines on it make it perfect lid texture and it’s a bit scratch resistance. The base units is very nice and made with plastic and it does not have any softness. The area above the optical drive has some softness and lid also has some softness but not much to worry, as it does not much matters to many people and most of the user do not really put that amount of pressure on lid. The edges are quite well. Overall Samsung Series 3 350E7C has good design but its build quality is inconsistent. 


                                                    The Samsung Series 3 350E7C has 17.1 inch TN LED display panel which has the max resolution of about 1600x900. The resolution is not acceptable this kind of notebook and especially with a 17 inch display 1600x900 is not enough, The gamers like to have 1080p resolution for gaming and as it is an all-rounder notebook with Core i7 quad core with Dedicated GPU so 1080p will be a perfect match. The contrast ratio of the display is not up to the expected level and the max brightness is just decent. The image quality of the display is not enough, I would say, its poor at this price level. The viewing angles are also very limited especially vertical viewing angles are much limited and you can see anything on screen if you are not sitting in ideal position. Overall Samsung Series 3 350E7C has poor display screen with just 1600x900 resolution.

The Samsung Series 3 350E7C has large full keyboard with numpad as well. The size of keys is pretty large and you can’t complaint about it. The key travel is very limited and the surface is very suitable for the accurate, high speed typing as well. The arrow keys are of pretty decent size but the key space between the up/ down arrow keys is very small. There are no special buttons for specific purposes as combination of FN key with F1 to F8 used for special tasks. The keyboard is very good for typing and we do not have any problem with it. The touchpad is of a bit smaller in size and the buttons are physically separated by a line on the surface. The touchpad has the multi-touch feature and the touchpad done well in our tests. Overall Samsung Series 3 350E7C has good keyboard and touchpad.


The Samsung Series 3 350E7C has 2 stereo speakers which are located just above the keyboard and they produce very nice sound quality which is quite good for people who are very Enthusiasts about quality of the sound. The max volume is also good and the base is very consistent and enough for a notebook’s speakers. The speakers are good enough for listening the music or watching movie with friends in a room. Overall Samsung Series 3 350E7C has good speakers.


The Samsung Series 3 350E7C has pretty good low temperatures all around the notebooks, surface of keyboard and components as they were quite low during the idle work and the temperatures in load working were also low as well. The temperature of the keyboard’s surface was a bit high (after 30 min of gaming) but still usage of keys was possible while gaming. The noise produced by the fan of Samsung Series 3 350E7C was quite low like a simple notebook without any dedicated Graphics Chip. The fan keep running but still very quiet and it remain under the distraction level of noise while gaming or watching a HD movie. Overall Samsung Series 3 350E7C has good low temperatures i.e. runs cool and quiet.  



                                                                The Samsung Series 3 350E7C has very nice connectivity options as it has Bluetooth 4.0 and latest “N” band supported high speed Wifi for wireless connectivity. The Samsung Series 3 350E7C has 2x USB 2.0, optical drive, Kingston lock and 2x audio ports on the right side and on the left side, it has 2x USB 3.0, VGA, HDMI, Ethernet port and AC-in for power adaptor. It has card reader at front so Overall Samsung Series 3 350E7C has all the necessary connectivity options for modern life. 


                                                   The Samsung Series 3 350E7C has a 48watts, 6 Cell Lithium-ion battery which manage to keep it running for about 271 minutes which is quite good for a gaming notebook. We measure the battery life while running the task which a normal users is going to run on their notebook as Microsoft Office Work, Typing while listening audio songs, surfing web via Wifi, copy file from HDD to HDD and from optical drive, photo editing etc. to get the result which apply to real life instead of running any battery life benchmarks which are far away from real life scenarios. Overall Samsung Series 3 350E7C has good battery life.
