Samsung R522 notebook review
By Stephen Patrick (pocket-lint.com)
Samsung's R-series targets those on a budget, offering impressive features and quality at decent prices. The R522 is a 15.6-inch laptop that offers comfort, style and decent office performance. As with most laptops we've seen recently, the R522...
Reasonable value, good office performance, comfortable keyboard
Integrated graphics, lacks any stand-out features
A good all-rounder, and a very capable laptop, but for all it’s usability it remains an uninspiring choice
With some of Samsung's smaller offerings - such as the Q320 - offering decent 3D performance, it’s a shame to find an integrated Intel graphics card in place. It’s capable enough for standard office tasks - creating documents, browsing the web or...

Samsung R522 - 15.6in Notebook
By Andy Vandervell (trustedreviews.com)
Samsung brings a little style and refinement to the mid-range laptop sector with the R522-FA01UK.
Samsung's latest mainstream notebook does lots of things well. It looks great, adding a little class and refinement to a sector better known for well-featured but prosaic machines. It also has a decent base spec, very good connectivity and excellent...
However, it is let down by truly dreadful speakers and the lack of both Draft-N Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. These aren't deal breakers, so if you can live without them the R522 is worth serious consideration, but they do preclude the R522 from an award.

Samsung - R522
By (itreviews.co.uk)
With a compact and relatively lightweight design, the R522 from Samsung is an attractive laptop aimed at those who want reasonable performance on-the-go. The core specs are solid enough: Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 processor, 4GB ...
We can't fathom why Samsung neglected to include 802.11n wireless support, but with its decent battery life, reasonable performance and overall good looks, the R522 is good value at this price. Its use of integrated graphics means 3D performance is...

Samsung R522
By Will Stapley (reghardware.co.uk)
Cheap 'n' cheerful Core 2 Duo, but lacks 802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
The keyboard won't suit all tastes and we were hoping for slightly better battery life, but on the whole this is a decent budget laptop from Samsung. That said, the bizarre decision to go with 802.11g wireless and the total lack of Bluetooth may be...

Very good value for money ratio ; System performance ; Gaming performance ; Configuration ; Quality of manufacturing ; Interface distribution ; HDMI, eSATA included ; Battery life and emission without load
USB ports on the right could be obstructive ; High emissions under longer load ; Omission of Bluetooth ; Small touchpad ; Sound ; Reflective display with average contrast
That Samsung achieves offering a such versatile all-rounder without compromises in quality to such a low price
