STOCKHOLM and HOUSTON, March 22, 2011/PRNewswire/ -- The TCO Certified usability and eco-label for ICT products today awarded

Series 9 for outstanding achievement in outdoor readability. A first in
notebook design, the Samsung Notebook Series 9 delivers superior brightness,

environmental and user-centered design.

CEO of TCO Development, Soren Enholm congratulated Samsung on the award:
"This achievement by Samsung is a leading example of what the TCO Certified
Edge program sets out to reward: high-performance and eco-design that goes
beyond the mainstream. By combining the two without compromise, Samsung has
shown that it is possible to deliver an exceptional user experience while
also maintaining its commitment to green design."
Announced at CES in January, the Samsung Notebook Series 9 promises to
deliver unparalleled display quality. Outdoor readability has always been a
challenge for mobile notebook users, as strong light in outdoor environments
typically overpowers the maximum luminance produced by the screen, which
makes the display difficult to read. With its significantly higher luminance,
the Samsung Notebook Series 9 can better counteract the ambient light levels
typically experienced in bright outdoor environments, therefore making it a
great choice for outdoor use.
"It is a great honor to get TCO Certified Edge and build a leadership in
mobile PC industry with our Notebook Series 9," said Kyuho Uhm, senior vice
president of the IT Solutions Business at Samsung Electronics. "The
notebook's SuperBright Plus display is two times brighter than conventional
displays, as well as its vibrant color reproduction (16 million colors) and
Super Contrast ratio (1,300:1), make it one of the most beautiful notebook
displays on the market. We are creating the best in display and offering our
customers a complete and comprehensive notebook that meets all of their needs
within one premium device."
