 Welcome to an unboxing of a product that's been through the war zone a little bit. However, the internal carton is not in rough shape, but we do need this outside one so we can just cover the specs. So this is the Samsung 900X4B. This is an ultrabook, but it is a 15-inch LED backlit 400-knit non-glossy display where Samsung is also claiming a 170-degree viewing angle. So this is a very premium ultrabook. This is in their 9 series, so you know it's not going to come cheap. It comes with a dual-core i5 which can turbo up to 2.3 GHz. It also has 8 gigs of memory, 128 gig SSD, and all your usual wireless connectivity including wireless N, Bluetooth, and Wi-Di or wireless display. So here's the internal carton which uses a nice matte black finish and silver Samsung Series 9 lettering. You got like the rainbow reflective thing image. Okay, let's open it up. Inside we find a power cable, a notebook. This has been unboxed before. I apologize guys. I'm re-unboxing this particular product. Let's see what we got in here. Probably some manuals and driver disks and ooh, a microfiber cloth. You never have enough of these. System recovery media, get started guide of Windows or Google. You can just use Google to research how to use Microsoft products because they're best of friends these days. User's guide, essential guide. Okay, there we go. Let's go ahead and put all that back in there. We are pretty much done with the documentation. It has a one-year warranty and it comes with a little adapter. What's this guy for? There we go. So that is, oh okay, it's just a micro USB to ethernet adapter. It's nice that it comes with that because some laptop manufacturers make you buy the adapter for the low profile ports which I think is sort of ludicrous. If you're going to build the port into the laptop, you might as well make it so I can use it. We have, wow, look at that. That is a very, very sleek power brick and check that out. That's a Windows Koa. I haven't seen one like that before. It's on the power brick itself instead of on the laptop. Wow, interesting. Okay. Slick apparently thinks that's not a very good idea. I'm sort of with him on that one because the power brick is a lot easier to lose and not lose the laptop than it is to lose a laptop and still need your Koa for something. Anyway, it is, ah yes, so now we get into the, I mean check this out. We have to do the iPhone comparison because when we have something that is as slim and sleek as this, check that out. So it is only.58 inches thin at the edge. That's the reason for needing the low profile port for wired networking because there just isn't enough room to build in a full size RJ45 port on this notebook over, what was it, over 30,000 hours. That is labor hours, man hours, went into the design of the aluminum unibody shell that Samsung is using for this notebook. Now this is a 15 inch notebook which means that in spite of the fact that you are using an ultrabook, you are not going to be limited in terms of your screen real estate or your resolution. It uses a 1600 by 900 screen and as I mentioned before, it is a high brightness. Here we go, so we'll show you the, actually let's wait until it gets booted up. Although Samsung claims it boots up in less than 15 seconds which I think we're pretty much, we can say is verified now. Check that out, that was the entire boot time from start to finish. Wow, that's actually really cool. So I'd say the side by side viewing angle is significantly better than the up down viewing angle. However, the screen overall looks pretty good and my, let's see, did I say the resolution already? Yeah, 1600 by 900. Okay, so the 15 inch 1600 by 900 is extremely thin so we're going to do the iPhone comparison here again just to show you guys how skinny the top of this notebook is. The overall build of it though feels excellent. Like you guys can see that in spite of its thinness, here I'll show you how much flex there is to the design. Almost nothing here and then on the keyboard itself, I mean, I can't do almost anything. A plastic shell, like triple the thickness of this one, wouldn't have that kind of rigidity even if it's a really well designed one. The keyboard uses a chiclet style and this is not a bilingual keyboard although if you buy it in Canada, I suspect there's a chance you'll get a bilingual keyboard. You've got a very, very large touch pad so that's really nice to see. Yeah, I guess that's, I mean, what else is there to really say? Ventilation holes are here. There's your cooling fan although it's not even spinning right now. Well, there's one fan spinning in there somewhere but it's incredibly quiet. Right, okay, so here, let's finish, let's show, okay, right, right, right, right, right, I own all that. Okay, here we go. So on this side we have our power in as well as USB 2, headphone, microphone, mini HDMI or is that micro HDMI? That's micro HDMI I think, very small HDMI. Okay, and there's that network adapter port, doodad. There's a microphone in so it actually has a built-in microphone for web camming it up. There's your webcam. Don't worry, trust me, it's there. Two USB 3.0 ports as well as, hold on. Sorry guys, yep, that is a VGA out so you will need an adapter for that one. Also we have an SD card reader, that's kind of nice, full size SD card reader under a little flap here. So I just want to make a few comments on the overall build quality of the notebook. This is significantly better than the other two Ultrabooks that we took a look at. On my NCIX Tech Tips channel, the ZenBook as well as the MacBook Air, it just feels really, really, really solid. The hinge feels good too, I mean, I can with confidence hold up this notebook by the edges here and kind of swing things around. Like it feels incredibly strong considering the petite form factor that we're dealing with here. The electronics can keep getting smaller and more efficient and more miniaturized, but when it comes to building hinges that are durable, the technology is just like you just have to spend a bunch of money on the materials. There's no magic bullet where you can refine the manufacturing process and make the transistor smaller so it's easier to build a durable hinge. No, you just have to actually build a durable hinge. I think that pretty much wraps it up. Thank you for checking out this, oh actually hold on. Okay, it has an 8 cell battery, didn't mention that before. We did mention the specs. Yeah, I think that pretty much wraps it up. So thank you for checking out this unboxing and first look at the Samsung, at the new Samsung 9 Series Ultrabook.
