First Eco certified netbook – SAMSUNG N120

Any device is said to be eco-friendly if it does not contains any mercury or harmful chemicals. If it comes with display, it should be highly energy efficient. Samsung N120 is the first netbook to become TCO certified.

According to TCO, the Samsung N120 is completely mercury free and uses LED backlit for energy efficiency. This makes the netbook as ‘green’ and ‘eco-friendly’ for the users.

“We are proud that the N120 is the first netbook achieving TCO certification which leads consumers to regard Samsung computers as safe and user friendly products. Samsung’s commitment to the environment is one of our top values and we are constantly trying to develop our products to be qualified for TCO standards.”

Samsung N120 not as wide as expected – full specifications revealed

When we first heard about the Samsung N120’s claim that it features not 90% laptop size keyboard, but 100% laptop size keyboard, our initial thoughts were that the N120 is going to be a really wide netbook. But as per Samsung N120 official webpage, the dimensions are 10.27″(w) x 1.19″ x 7.3″ . To give you a better idea of the width, here are the dimensions of the ASUS EEE 1000H: 10.47″(w) x 7.53″ x 1.50.

This means that the N120 is infact smaller width-wise. Now, how did they manage to put in a full laptop keyboard in there? Or is it may be just a new marketing idea by Samsung.

Samsung N120 Netbook unveiled

Looks like Samsung is on fire! From the past couple of days, they are releasing a new netbook everyday. Today, they are unveiling the Samsung N120. It has 10.1″ display and other usual netbook specifications. But what makes this netbook different from the rest of the manufactures is the keyboard. You would say, how is it different from the other netbooks with 10-inch screens?

Well, Samsung claims that it will have full laptop size keyboard. While the other 10-inch netbooks claim that they have 90-95% keyboard, the Samsung has (somehow) managed to fit in full keyboard. That can mean only one thing. A big fat bezel around the screen? (a la EEE 904HA)
