Key Features
Vibrant LED-Backlit HD Display

With a 16:9 aspect ratio, you can watch true HD movies in true widescreen format that fits the full size of the screen, without any black bands. You'll see images that are fine-tuned with the sharpest details and boldest colors.
Power Back up in 3 Seconds with Fast Start
You no longer have to shut down your Samsung computer, just close its lid and it goes into a special powerless sleep mode. When you open the lid your computer comes back to life in 3 seconds and you are exactly at the same place as when you shut the lid. Fast Start saves your data and system configurations to your hard drive and PC memory. So, when you power it back on it is just like you left it.
Stay Connected
The RV515 lets you easily connect to your digital life, with 3 USB 2.0 ports to connect your camera, printer and phone, VGA for an external monitor, RJ45 LAN to easily connect to a network, and a 4-in-1 multi-card slot to wirelessly transfer media such as videos, music and photos. And if you need to be in touch face-to-face, the built-in webcam makes videoconferencing possible from virtually anywhere.
Amazing HD Audio
Amazing HD Audio Since sound is as important as vision, we gave the RV515 SRS Premium Sound processing, for the ultimate audio experience. The HD audio delivered with SRS will make your movies, music, TV, and games sound natural and realistic.
