Samsung N110 in Laptops
1 of 3 
Verdict
Superb build quality, battery life and usability - quite simply the best netbook around.
Review Date: 13 May 2009
Price when reviewed: £304 (£350 inc VAT)

The N110's cleverly tapered front edge improves matters drastically though, with its slightly curved profile making for much more reliable button presses. It's a small change, but one that we missed once we went back to our trusty NC10.
Conclusion
The N110 has all the makings of a superb netbook, but with our contacts at Samsung assuring us that there are no plans to retire the NC10, the N110 could find itself the unfortunate victim of its stablemate's success. Indeed, it equals or betters the Samsung NC10 in all but one crucial respect, price.
That price might put off some potential admirers, but the N110 is worth paying a premium for. For just £43 exc VAT more than the Samsung NC10, the N110 improves in almost every area.
A superb keyboard, fantastic display and great build quality put the Samsung right at the front of the pack. It can't rival Asus' 1005HA for sheer value for money, but if quality is paramount, it's a winner.

So this is the best netbook?
Thats great, but whats the point if no-one sells it. I can't find any online retailers who sell the N110.
