Samsung 9 Pro

[Tom Cat]

So I need a new laptop and I'm looking at the Samsung 9 Pro 13inch, I don't don't want the 15 inch because it uses Radeon. I have a few questions before I purchase.

 

1) Is their a new laptop Samsung plans on making in the near future? I'll wait if that's the case. 

 

2) Is the keyboard backlit?

 

3) What can I upgrade on the laptop?

1) No clue

2)According to its product page it is

3) Well it looks like it come with Max ram. You might be able to upgrade the storage, but the fact is, you wont know until you get it, on how easy it is to get inside. You also might be able to replace the WiFi card, but to be honest, that might be the best card thats in there now. 

4) There is nothing wrong with Radeon Graphics. Dedicated GPU's are generally better than Intel Integrated graphics. 

 

Though I would also go with the 13" only because of the size. 15" notebooks suck if you need to take the machine with you. This is actually a nice looking machine.

Yes, new laptops will always be around the corner, so probably best to wait and never buy one.

/sarcasm, buy what you need today, thinking about how long into the future you want to use it for.

2) Is the keyboard backlit?

Yes, which is IMO an absolute MUST on all laptops nowadays.

3) What can I upgrade on the laptop?

Possibly storage, probably not anything else though, as most thin and light laptops have soldered RAM these days.

If you want to upgrade a thin and light laptop, right now I can only recommend Dell's XPS 15 series.
