Samsung Unveils Series 7 Gamer, The Ultimate 17inch Gaming Laptop

Unique Mode-Changing Dial, 17-inch Full HD LCD Display and Top-of-the-Line Components Result in the Optimal PC Gaming Experience.

Samsung Electronics America Inc., a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd, today announced the Samsung Series 7 Gamer, the ultimate laptop for gaming enthusiasts. Designed with feedback from passionate PC gamers in mind, the Series 7 Gamer features a 17.3-inch full HD LCD display, high quality Dolby Home Theater surround sound, rich NVIDIA Geforce graphics and a 3rd generation Intel Core™ i7 processor, as well as a unique dial that allows users to easily transition between four modes for maximum performance at all times.

“The Series 7 Gamer offers all the elements of a high-powered gaming machine with the convenience of the mode-changing dial, which enables you to switch off components in order to save power and have a quieter experience when you’re using it as a more traditional laptop,” said Todd Bouman, vice president of marketing at Samsung Enterprise Business Division. “When the product is in gaming mode, it takes the experience to the next level by optimizing the graphics and sound, turning on a pulsating light in the speakers and highlighting the gaming keys in red, which truly allows users to immerse themselves in a game.”

Dial it Up for Optimized Gaming Performance

The Series 7 Gamer features a unique dial enabling users to switch between four modes optimized for the key major use cases:

• Gaming Mode – When in gaming mode, a distinctive graphic appears on the screen identifying the active mode. The main gaming keys are highlighted on the keyboard in red, and a light is turned on around the speakers, which pulsates to match the game’s sounds. The Windows key and touchpad are disabled when a game is inserted, eliminating the possibility of accidentally hitting the wrong part of the keyboard while playing. The keyboard also features ergonomic u-shaped key caps, a 2.7mm keystroke and separated arrow keys, enabling you to engage in rapid play with minimal errors.
• General Mode – In this mode, the laptop is optimized for regular computing tasks, such as web surfing, Microsoft Office computing and photo viewing.
• Quiet Mode – In quiet mode, sounds are disabled and the fan is turned off to result in a quieter experience.
• Power Saver Mode – To save battery life, only the most critical parts of the processor are running when the laptop is in this mode.

The four distinctive modes of the Series 7 Gamer ensure that the laptop is easy-to-use and meets users’ unique needs in almost all situations.

Rich Audio Visual Experience

The Series 7 Gamer provides a rich, immersive audio and visual experience, enabling users to truly submerge themselves in a game. When in gaming mode, top-of-the-line Dolby Home Theater v4 speakers are enabled to provide high quality cinematic surround sound, while the Gamer’s subwoofer allows users to turn up the volume as loud as they’d like with minimal distortion. This audio integration results in not only an outstanding gaming experience, but optimal listening for music and movies
