Samsung 13" QB13R-T- Score: 51
Test resolution: HD | Browser: Proprietary | System Memory: 4gb
Pros: Comes ready to deploy with integrated WiFi, simple UI easy to navigate.
Cons:Samsung SoC buyer beware, some models have limited or even no MagicInfo support. Samsung does not make it easy to differentiate between older from current models. A major feature Samsung Smart View (mirroring) will end service Oct 5. 2020.
Summary: The screen is ok, but Samsung seems to pay little regard to maintaining feature and software compatibility. The browser in the SoC display is only ok. But be careful as it has some odd quirks handing video playback. If you want to use Samsung CMS get ready to pay for it, it seems all useful free options are being shut down.
