One final drawback, at this time the one review i have read covering an upgrade to core2duo reports that while it was successful the Q1 can only see/use 1 core.

Dear All,

I am curious to know- Is it possible to upgrade Processor 800Mhz to 1200 or Hard Drive from 60 to 120GB in Samsung Q1UV 60Gb HD, 800MHz and 1Gb ram momentally

Thanks so much

Is there any information about the possibility to make a prozessor upgrade to a u2500 . See the question from fahmy -has anyone try it ?
Thanx in advance

Dear all,

it might not be the perfect place to ask this question due to the topic discussed, but can we swap the Core solo processor in the Q1 ultra premium to a core 2 duo??? is the processor soldered…did anyone thought of this upgrade??

sorry again for the question. thanks in advance

Fresh Vista Ultimate install on my Q1UP with 2gig of kingston ram.

Base score: 2.1
Processor: 2.9
RAM: 4.4
Gfx: 2.1
Gaming gfx: 2.4
HD: 3.7

Again, this is the score before any driver updates, which would explain the lower gfx score.

I don’t find the LED screen to be pale. Looks vibrant and colorful to me but I haven’t had any older Samsung laptops to compare it to. Most of the posted pics I’ve taken of the device have had the Brightness set to around 50% or so.

Hi, Kevin, I’m thinking of getting a Q1UP after watching your video and reading some recommendations from umpcportal. What I’m mostly interested in is the 7’ screen. The 4.5’ screen on vaio UX is really a pain.
Is the LED screen on Q1UP looks pale? I had some models of Samsung laptop before, and they have this problem.

Nansong, I’m hoping that the Q1UP gets a BIOS upgrade as you can currently only set the memory for graphics use to either 64 or 128 MB. The graphics chipset is capable of using more, but the device currently limits it.

Vaio VGN-UX380N
Processor 2.9
Memory 4.3
Graphics 3.4
Gaming graphics 2.7
Primary hard disl 3.7

This UX model has the same U1500 cpu. Main difference, the 945GMS chipset in UX380N uses 224M shared graphics memory while Q1UP is 128M.

Flybook V5:

Base Score – 3.1
Processor Genuine Intel(R) CPU U2500 @ 1.20GHz 4.2 – 3.1
Memory (RAM) 1.99 GB – 4.4
Graphics Mobile Intel(R) 945GM/GU Express Chipset Family – 3.2
Gaming graphics 256 MB Total available graphics memory – 3.1
Primary hard disk 3GB Free (19GB Total) – 3.4

FlipStart

Memory 2.0
Graphics 1.9
Gaming graphics 1.0
Primary hard disk 3.4
Windows Vista (TM) Business

BTW, FlipStart runs like a top with Vista Business!!

Vye S37 (800Mhz A100, 2GB RAM, 250GB 5400RPM HDD):

Index: 2.1

Fritz shows relative speed of 1.75 and 838 Kilo nodes per second.

Frank, looks like you need a Fritz benchmark for the 1.33 GHz Core Solo. I’ll try to get that to you directly today.

I’ve got full Tablet PC functionality: flicks, personalized handwriting recognition, floating TIP, etc… so it looks good to me in terms of HID drivers. I’ll have to check which drivers are being used because I didn’t install any from eGalax or anyone else. Windows Update might have grabbed something…

Kevin, one question, the Q1UP with Vista, is it using HID drivers?

Kevin, you knew that I was going to ask.
