<div style="text-align: left;">If you've been aching to get your hands on the 10.1-inch, matte white <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/19/lg-x120-netbook-review/">LG X120 netbook</a> that's been thrilling the trendy Euro jet-set elite for the last 6 months or so, now is your chance! Available at RadioShack.com and select brick and mortar <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/05/the-shack-short-on-money-for-new-signs-asks-for-your-help/">The Shack</a> locations, it can be yours for $179.99 with a 2-year $60/month AT&amp;T contract. We'll let you do the math -- but believe us, you're probably better off shelling out the cash for the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/21/lgs-xnote-mini-x120-levis-special-edition-for-deadheads-and-tr/">Levis Special Edition</a>.

We suppose we asked for it when we called the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/03/samsung-x-series-thin-and-lights-sport-dual-core-culv-procs-9-h/">new X Series</a> plastic "cheap" to Samsung's face, but we got some wild build quality trust in return when the Samsung guy stood on his laptop for us. So, the plastic feels cheap, but at least it'll hold up under (considerable) pressure, and the matte palm rest is certainly an improvement over the glossy overload of the competition. Upon closer inspection we're still not really feeling the design of these laptops, and the port layout feels a little haphazard, but at least everything's there and there's no garishness to complain about. The X120's side-button trackpad is a bit of a disappointment, though all three laptops do support multitouch for the all important two-finger scrolling. But enough blabber, check out the laptop standing stunt on video after the break! <div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-hands-on/">Samsung X Series hands-on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-hands-on/#2254436"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/2009-09-03_15-01-39engadgetes_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-hands-on/#2254429"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/2009-09-03_15-01-59engadgetes_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-hands-on/#2254424"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/2009-09-03_15-02-08engadgetes_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-hands-on/#2254420"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/2009-09-03_15-02-23engadgetes_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-hands-on/#2254433"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/2009-09-03_15-02-30engadgetes_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/03/samsung-x-series-withstands-human-weight-test-other-hands-on-im/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Samsung X Series withstands human weight test, other hands-on impressions</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/laptops/" rel="tag">Laptops</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/03/samsung-x-series-withstands-human-weight-test-other-hands-on-im/">Samsung X Series withstands human weight test, other hands-on impressions</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Thu, 03 Sep 2009 10:03:00 EST.

Samsung just debuted its new X Series line, a trio of fairly thin big brothers to the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/03/samsung-outs-n130-and-n140-netbooks-incites-groans-of-disappoin/">new netbooks Samsung is also launching today</a>. The X420 (14-inch), X520 (14.6-inch) and X120 (11.6-inch, pictured) all hover around 0.95-inches thick, and range from 3 ounces to 4.4 pounds in weight. Samsung is touting its new design language for the laptops, though at a glance it doesn't seem too special -- the scratch-resistant UV coating for the glossy finish is a nice touch, though. Under the hood we're a little short on details, but an unannounced dual-core Intel CULV processor makes an appearance somewhere in there. Otherwise there's the fairly standard WiFi, Bluetooth, card reader, and HDMI plug. Samsung claims some special mojo to squeeze 9 hours of battery out of its 6 cell batteries (in the X420 and X520, the X120 does 4 cell), with 6 hours of movie playback also claimed -- we'll believe it when we see it, but we <em>want</em> to believe. Prices range from 699 to 899 Euro (about $1,000 to $1,286 US), and the line should ship this month in Europe and Asia.<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-thin-and-lights/">Samsung X Series thin-and-lights</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-thin-and-lights/#2254266"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/samsung-x-13_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-thin-and-lights/#2254243"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/samsung-x-14_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-thin-and-lights/#2254265"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/samsung-x-15_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-thin-and-lights/#2254264"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/samsung-x-16_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-x-series-thin-and-lights/#2254263"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/09/samsung-x-17_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/laptops/" rel="tag">Laptops</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/03/samsung-x-series-thin-and-lights-sport-dual-core-culv-procs-9-h/">Samsung X Series thin-and-lights sport dual-core CULV procs, 9 hour battery life</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Thu, 03 Sep 2009 09:10:00 EST.

Meet LG's Levi special edition of its Xnote Mini <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/x120">X120</a>. It's exactly like the regular X120 running XP and Splashtop-powered "Smart On" OS only now with Levi graphics and an obligatory denim laptop sleeve just as you'd expect. More pics after the break because sometimes a man needs more than a monkey.<br /></div>

<div align="left">On paper, LG's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/x120">X120 netbook</a> is just another entrant in the Atom-filled sea of sameness -- and, in many respects, it is. But it also gets a lot of little things right that too many manufacturers still invariably get wrong and, while it's not entirely without its faults, it certainly merits some serious consideration alongside all the usual suspects already on your shopping list. The fact that it also doesn't look too shabby doesn't exactly hurt things either. Read on for our full review.</div>

<div align="left">We got an <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/">early look</a> at LG's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/x120">X120 netbook</a> at CES back in January, but we've now finally gotten our hands on the final retail version, and will be properly putting it through its paces in the coming days. Right off the bat, however, it's clear that the netbook has quite a bit going for it inside and out, including a nice matte white finish all around the exterior (though it's as glossy as ever once you pop the lid), a generally solid build quality, a usable keyboard (although the trackpad is on the small side) and, of course, LG's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Splashtop/">Splashtop</a>-powered Smart On interface, which once again manages to impress with its speediness, even if you'll still often find yourself reaching for XP. Hit up the gallery below for some unboxing and hands-on pics, and keep an eye out for some more in-depth impressions.<br />

Despite letting us <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/">play with the thing</a> at CES and then giving us <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/17/lg-gets-official-with-3g-equipped-x120-netbook/">all the details</a> of what's going on inside its upcoming white and green netbook, LG still wouldn't commit to just when its X120 would be hitting retail. Not one for protracted pre-order periods, apparently, the company has now confirmed the laptop will be shipping to Japanese users by the end of this very month, and to Europe and 20 <em>other </em>nations within the next one. We're not entirely sure that the US is going to be one of those 20, but since LG has just over a week left before March becomes April, it had better get shipping already.<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/laptops/" rel="tag">Laptops</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/23/lgs-x120-netbook-granted-a-release-date/">LG's X120 netbook granted a release date</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Mon, 23 Mar 2009 08:34:00 EST.

<div align="left">LG was all too happy to show this one off at CES in January, but it wasn't quite ready to talk about it any sort of official manner, though it has now finally rectified that situation more than a month later at MWC. From the looks of it, the netbook seems to be unchanged from its CES iteration, with it packing a 160GB hard drive, the Splashtop-powered  LG "Smart On" quick-boot interface and, we presume, the same 10-inch WSVGA display and de rigeur 1.6GHz Atom processor as before. Most notably, LG has also now confirmed that the X120 will indeed come equipped with standard 3G HSPA connectivity, which is no doubt why LG took advantage of MWC to finally get official with it. If you missed it the first time around, be sure to check out our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/">CES hands-on</a> for plenty of pics and a video of that quick-boot in action.<br /><br />[Via <a href="http://www.liliputing.com/2009/02/lg-launches-lg-x120-netbook-with-3g-wireless.html">Liliputing</a>]</div>

We just bumped into LG's X120, a barely-differentiated followup to the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/X110/">X110</a> that's floating around the show floor. There's still a 1.6GHz Atom processor, 1GB of RAM, 160GB hard drive, Windows XP and a 10-inch WSVGA screen, but what's new is the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Splashtop/">Splashtop</a>-powered "LG Smart On" OS, which does the quick boot thing we've come to know and love on many ASUS products, the Voodoo Envy 133 and elsewhere. The effect, as always, is pretty stunning, and the OS should be helpful for a quick look at the web or to hop on IM over the laptop's WiFi connectivity. The netbook itself seems to have been tweaked a tad on aesthetics, but it's still a bit thicker than we'd like at this point for the netbook market. We're short on further details, but since the X110 did 3G, there's a good chance that'll be in play as well -- we're still waiting on PR from LG. In the meantime, you can check out a video of the startup after the break.<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/">LG's new X120 netbook with Splashtop-powered instant on</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/#1274100"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/01/lg-x120-001_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/#1274085"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/01/lg-x120-002_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/#1274084"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/01/lg-x120-003_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/#1274089"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/01/lg-x120-004_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/#1274104"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/01/lg-x120-005_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>LG's new X120 netbook with Splashtop-powered instant on</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/laptops/" rel="tag">Laptops</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/09/lgs-new-x120-netbook-with-splashtop-powered-instant-on/">LG's new X120 netbook with Splashtop-powered instant on</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Fri, 09 Jan 2009 18:37:00 EST.
