Overview

Samsung Q1 Ultra

Editors rating
Rating: 6.1
Verdict

Samsung has undoubtedly improved the design of the Q1 Ultra, which is a sleeker and more usable device than its predecessor. Unfortunately, Windows Vista's heavy footprint more than cancels out the hardware improvements, leaving this a seriously underpowered system.

Typical price

£ 680
