The second-generation Samsung Series 9 13.3-inch notebook is one of the thinnest, lightest, and most elegantly designed notebooks you'll find. It's an amazing half-inch thick and has been updated with a sandblasted aluminum finish (forget about scratches and fingerprints) and has a 1600 x 900 resolution display that delivers outstanding vibrancy and sharpness with wide viewing angles.
• Weight of only 2.5 pounds makes it incredibly easy to transport wherever you need to go
• Clean design touches include smooth, polished edges and a spacious, buttonless trackpad that blends into the palm rest
• Well-spaced keyboard with amply sized keys is comfortable to use and is backlit to keep you typing after the lights go down
• 128 GB solid state drive enables fast bootups and sleep-resume times, and is more durable than standard hard-disk drives
The original Series 9 was already a winning combination of form and function, but Samsung raised the bar even higher with this updated version. It's lighter and slimmer than its predecessor at 0.51 inches and 2.5 pounds, down from 0.64 and 2.8. It also fits its 13.3-inch display into a 12-inch frame to give you more screen for edge-to-edge views. And that's where this PC really shines—the display's 1600 x 900 gives you excellent picture quality in a PC this size, perfect for viewing everything from photos to movies to work documents. Reflections are also kept to a minimum thanks to a matte finish.
Performance-wise, the Intel Core i5 processor with Turbo Boost and 4 GB of RAM easily handle heavy loads of work and play. Multimedia options are equally solid with Intel Wireless Display which lets you stream PC content to a monitor or big-screen TV (separate adapter required), and Micro HDMI for watching movies on your HDTV. Portability is further enhanced with up to seven hours of battery life* which will keep you going on long flights and jam-packed days of meetings and classes. And, with Samsung's Battery Life Plus technology, the battery will retain 80 percent of its original capacity for up to 1,500 charges—up to five times more than other notebooks.

Doesn't this come with free Xbox ?
I really don't care if my laptop has an i5 or an i7, I don't do heavy photo editing etc. So the most important thing for me is the build quality and the screen. Most screens have very narrow viewing angle and the colors start bleeding if you tilt your screen a little bit which is something I absolutely hate.
How is this laptop in that regards? If someone has a first hand experience and share his/her opinion, I would appreciate it.
