Samsung Series 7 CHRONOS to Reach Korea in January

First shown to the world at the IFA 2011 event in Berlin in September, Samsung's Series 7 CHRONOS premium notebook will be launched in Korea, next month. Apart from its sleek aluminum body, the CHRONOS packs a punch, thanks to quad-core Core i7 "Sandy Bridge" processor, 8 GB RAM, 1 TB HDD, and Samsung's Fast Starter technology (similar to Diskeeper's Express Cache). Its 15.6-inch screen sports a 1600x900 pixels resolution, and packs a proprietary panel technology that provides up to 300 nit brightness. Its pricing will range from 1,790,000 to 2,000,000 Won (US $1,545 to $1,726), depending on its configuration. With it, Samsung wants to tap into the premium market in its home country.
