Are you still deciding whether to get a laptop with its mobile performance advantage and familiar design or a tablet with its ease of use and ultra-portable form factor? Why not just get both? No you don’t have to buy two separate gadgets – especially now that Samsung managed to successfully fuse a laptop and a notebook together in a fancy sliding form factor. The new Samsung PC 7 series is a light and compact tablet with an integrated sliding keyboard for easier typing and better productivity. To shift from the multi-touch display to a full keyboard and mouse combo, simply slide the screen up to expose the discrete keyboard. It is the first sliding PC from Samsung and it comes with a next generation 1.66GHz Intel Atom Z670 Oak Trail processor, and the latest Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium operating system.

The Samsung Sliding PC 7 series weighs just around 2.2 lbs. and can easily fit a briefcase, a useful feature for those who present and records data on the go. Its 10.1-inch display is optimized for both office and field work as it features 340-nit brightness and High Definition 1366 x 768 resolution. To keep up with the day’s task with minimal recharging, Samsung installed a high capacity six-cell lithium-polymer battery and a practical Eco Light Sensor that auto adjusts the screen brightness basing on the lighting condition to help conserve energy and extend the battery life up to 9 hours. This notebook and tablet hybrid is available in 32GB and 64GB solid state drive variants. The use of SDD combined with Samsung’s own Fast Start technology enables the PC 7 Series of sliding tablet to boot Windows as fast as 15 seconds from cold and as little as 3 seconds from Hibernate and Sleep mode. For additional storage, this tablet uses a 4-in-1 memory card reader. Other features include an HDMI port, integrated webcam, audio speakers, optional 3G, accelerometer, and pre-loaded Samsung exclusive apps.
