Manufacturer codeNP700Z5A-S01NL
The product, explained
Samsung NP700Z5A-S01NL is listed in the laptops category. The recorded specifications include display diagonal: 39.6 cm (15.6"); processor family: Intel® Core™ i5; internal memory: 6 GB; total storage capacity: 500 GB. This entry covers manufacturer code NP700Z5A-S01NL. Specifications relate to this exact source record; other editions or packages may differ.
The 39.6 cm (15.6") display is specified at 1600 x 900 pixels. Consider these together: a larger screen provides more physical space, while resolution determines the number of pixels available. Neither specification establishes brightness, colour accuracy or motion quality.
This configuration lists 6 GB of memory and 500 GB of storage. Memory supports active applications; storage holds software and files. Check upgradeability separately, because a capacity figure does not establish whether either component can be replaced.

An illustration of conversion, not this product’s rating.
Identify the exact model and the version reviewed. Check the manufacturer code, configuration and supplied accessories.
Convert usable ratings to five points, count each publisher once and give each critic equal weight.
Show the average to two decimal places after three distinct critics. Otherwise display tbd, keeping individual reviews visible.
Find the best fit by considering the score alongside the critic count, review dates, tested version and the strengths that matter to you. Eligible model-level reviews identify the tested configuration. Reviews of different hardware are shown separately and do not enter this product’s COR Score.
