Full Wi-Fi signal strength can be upheld within the apartment and within a radius of around 10 meters. The 770Z5E is capable of driving remote displays via WiDi ( Wireless Display). Only the new 802.11ac standard with a maximal bandwidth of 1.3 Gbit/s at 5 GHz is not supported.

Bluetooth as well as Wi-Fi is handled by an Intel module, the Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235, which supports Bluetooth 4.0 and Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n (2.4 and 5 GHz with up to 300 Mbit/s). The Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller supports data transfer rates of up to 1 Gbit/s. When compared to its bigger brother, the 17-inch Samsung Series 7 Chronos 770Z7E-S01DE (3 kilograms including its battery), the 770Z5E remains 600 grams lighter. Cheaper devices like the Asus VivoBook S550CM-CJ038H tend to be heavier at 2.63 kilograms and even the newer Asus N56VB-S4050H weighs 2.68 kilograms. The Samsung laptop weighs 2.37 kilograms while measuring 376 x 250 x 21 millimeters (W x D x H), thus being noticeably heavier and thicker than its 2.03-kilogram competitor from Apple.

However, it does not reach the near-perfection levels of an Apple MacBook Pro 15 Retina. One disadvantage lies with a visible bobbing of the display due to its sheer weight.ĭue to its high-quality build and the materials used, the Samsung 770Z5E is able to secure a place in the upper third of all multimedia notebooks. The maximum opening angle of 135 degrees should be enough for most users. The centered display hinge holds the display lid firmly in place, but it can still be opened with just one hand. Still, no distortions occur on the screen itself. The display lid can be skewed despite its aluminum layer and some cracking can be heard as soon as too much force is exerted. The base units sags only when considerable pressure is applied, something which doesn't happen during real life usage. Everything has been processed with care and the gaps between the different components are very even. Generally speaking, there is no room for criticism concerning its build quality when compared to its larger sibling. Dust and dirt are also rather unobtrusive because of its silverish color. Then again, the underside consists of mere plastic, but at least it is fingerprint-proof due to its matte surfaces. Our first impression is quite favorable, both optically as well as haptically. The display lid, the frame around the screen and the inner surfaces next to its keyboard are made from brushed aluminum. Samsung has put some effort into a more modern look when compared to the 700Z5C. Still, the 770Z5E-S01DE is a very interesting notebook which will have to prove itself in the following review.ĭuring unpacking, we are immediately greeted by a well-designed laptop. It would have been nice to see some more variety - like Samsung chose to do with the 17-inch model (more about that later). No other variants of Samsung's newest 15.6-inch Series 7 Chronos are available. Windows 8 (64-bit) was pre-installed on our test device whereas the model 770Z5E-S02DE comes with Windows 8 Professional. So far, Samsung doesn't offer an SSD variant. It comes equipped with a dedicated GPU with 2 GB of GDDR5 memory - the AMD Radeon HD 8870M - 8 GB of DDR3 memory and a 2.5-inch HDD capable of storing 1 TB of data. The laptop is driven by an Intel Core i7-3635QM quad-core processor with a base clock speed of 2.4 GHz.
The 770Z7E's inner specs are every bit as impressive.
Samsung promises 300 nits of brightness for the screen.

One of its most important features is the matte 15.6-inch display with a Full HD 1080p resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. It definitely stands out of the crowd when compared to other multimedia laptops, but with a recommended retail price (RRP) of $1700 it is no cheap buy. Build quality is great, as the Samsung Series 7 Chronos 770Z5E-S01DE is wrapped into a slim metal case with a premium feel. Now, it's the little brother's turn, a 15.6-inch multimedia laptop which is supposed to be in no way inferior to its larger sibling. We have already tested the larger 17-inch 770Z7E-S01DE model of the Samsung Series 7 Chronos brand at length. For the original German review, see here.
