What's not to like??? Fast, sleek, W7, SSD and big bright 15" screen. It could use a port or two more, a numeric keypad and a larger optional SSD as I worry the 256GB will fill up. Other than that, it's the BEST UB out there and only 3+ lbs.
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, fast!!, did i say fast?!!
Cons: a bit pricey

Excellent sort of thin and light ultrabook

The thinness and lightness of this model aren't nearly as impressive as the 13" models but that's to be expected considering this model is, well, bigger.
The speed is fantastic. Processor, Memory, SSD.
The 8GB of memory and 256GB SSD were critical to me.
The screen is ok. Good enough but not as good as the Series 7 tablet I have.
Battery life has been fantastic so far. Rated at 10 hours.
The keyboard is taking some getting used to. I keep hitting the touchpad (but I'm getting better).
I used to be a Sony Vaio customer for years until I gave Samsung a chance and tried their products and I must say I was very impressed. Samsung S 9 15" is the best laptop out there.
