Samsung Delivers Powerhouse Performance with Affordable RC Series Notebook PCs

Classic design, high performance and easy usability add up for an impressive package
Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, -- June, 19, 2011 - Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd, a global leader in digital media and digital convergence technologies, today announced the introduction of RC Notebook series with the launch of the 14.0" RC420, 15.6" RC520 in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The combination of a sleek modern design, latest second generation Intel® CoreTM i5 Processor*, powerful hybrid processors*, exceptional display brightness, ultra-convenient product features and enhanced battery, the RC series will appeal to a wide-range of customers looking for a high-performance device.

Mr. Park Jae Cheon, General Manager, Samsung Saudi Arabia, stated that, "The modern computing experience is dependent on power and performance needs which are met by the RC Series notebooks. The RC series are available with hybrid graphics processors*, providing an optimum user experience while using power intelligently as the device switches between an nVIDIA Optimus* for optimum HD viewing and an Intel® HD Graphics* for everyday use. Both are available with up to 8GB of memory, while each model also comes equipped with a capacious 500GB Hard Disc Drive. This functionality is complemented by a stunning display on each device, delivering films and images in stunning quality. Each device provides a vivid HD viewing experience with 300 nit Super Bright display which is 40~50% brighter than normal display."

"A reliable longer battery lifespan is vital to notebook PC and this is enhanced on the RC series additions with the inclusion of Samsung's PowerPlus battery technology." Park continued, "With standard testing RC series battery duration is 7 hours* and in actual usage example while watching a DVD movie the battery duration is an impressive 4 hours which is very high with a super bright HD display screen. Also intelligent charging of the PowerPlus battery technology allows the battery lifespan up to 1,000 recharges-three times longer than conventional battery. This makes the RC Series both economical for the user and ecologically friendly as fewer batteries need to be replaced. Functionality is also improved through the addition of a numeric keypad* for increased ease of use. To provide a swift and productive performance, Samsung Fast Start technology allows users getting started within a few seconds of opening the display or pressing the power button. An innovative hybrid sleep mode combines the fast start-up of sleep with the stability of hibernation, so you don't have to wait 30-60 seconds for the notebook to boot-up."

Park concluded by highlighting that 75% of the notebook components are produced by Samsung's own factory, due to which very high quality level is achieved and maintained on Samsung Notebooks. Samsung is world number 1 manufacturer of Notebook LCD panels, DRAM and World Number 2 manufacturer of Battery and ODD.

Peace-of-Mind Reliability

Reliability is crucial for Notebook users and Samsung has worked to ensure its RC Series delivers consumer peace-of-mind. Durable and lightweight Duracase with scratch-resistant coating ensures the devices are amply protected from much of the external wear-and-tear brought about in everyday use.
