  • Samsung Series 9 (Model: 900X3A) teardown

    At CES 2011, Samsung revealed its answer to the Apple MacBook Air--the Series 9 notebook. This ultraportable laptop has some impressive hardware (Intel Core i5 CPU, 128GB SSD, and 4GB of RAM), but it also has an impressive price tag.

    Samsung sent TechRepublic a 13" Series 9 to test, and I just couldn't resist taking it apart. I'm glad I did. Unlike the MacBook Air, the Series 9's case is easy to open, you can upgrade the RAM, and it uses standard Phillips screws. Follow along as I crack open the ultrathin Samsung Series 9 laptop.

    Check out the TR Dojo blog, for my observations about the Series 9 and our teardown process.

  • Cracking Open the Samsung Series 9: Completely disassembled

    Thanks to its standard Phillips screws, pop-off cover, internal layout, the Samsung Series 9 was a snap to disassemble. I also like that you can upgrade the machine's RAM. Something you can't do on the 2010 MacBook Air. Unfortunately, the Series 9 uses the Intel Core i5-2537M processor's integrated Intel HD Graphics 3000 technology. For the price, I would have preferred the Series 9 to use a separate GPU, such as the MacBook Air's NVIDIA GeForce 320M.
