Gorgeous display ; Graphical powerhouse ; Subtle, clean design

Gamer Mode" dial is over the top ; LED management software is limited ; Chassis design limits port availability

Despite suffering a handful of faults common to oversized laptops, the Samsung Series 7 Gamer excels where it counts. Gamers looking for a rig that's easy to relocate won't be disappointed.

Stylish design ; Bright, attractive display ; Strong (though not category leading) performance

Lackluster battery life ; A bit pricey ; Not very future-proof

A tale of two titans

Adjustable power settings via Mode Dial. Gorgeous display. WiDi. Blu-ray. Great keyboard/touchpad combination. Reasonably priced for its class. Solid battery life.

Different modes are of questionable value. Minor amount of flexing on the lid. Some bloatware.

Although we tested the Series 7 Gamer both "Balanced" and "Gaming" modes, scores from the latter mode were used for the sake of comparison since it is, after all, a gaming laptop. Moreover, unless conserving battery life is imperative, many users would...

Temperatures during load, Sensitive lid, Scanty battery life, High weight, A matt case lid and a better battery life

Overall the Samsung Series 7 Gamer is a great choice for anyone who needs the best hardware on the go. Though you can find other portable systems that top it in benchmarks, this model manages to stay in an affordable price range. The power and style of...

The Samsung Series 7 Gamer has a fantastic screen, plenty of ports, a blazing processor and graphics, and most of the features you'd be looking for in a gaming desktop replacement.

This clunky beast isn't a looker, and it's hardly priced to be relevant to most shoppers: at slightly under $2,000, this is a specialty item.

The Samsung Series 7 Gamer is huge, expensive, and unattractive, but it's also one of the best gaming laptops that we've seen this year. If you don't mind its beefy 17-inch form, you won’t be disappointed.
