Samsung R522: Satin or Edira? ... Could be that they "fixed" it after the initial introduction.http://www.notebookcheck.net/Samsung-R522.16468.0.htm ...

Hi,

I am interested in the R522 from Samsung, but noticed that there are to versions, one called "Satin" and the other "Edira". Looking at the specs, these seem to be exactly the same. Is there any known difference between these two? I first suspected one of the two is EOL'd, but i can find both at online stores. I'd be happy if somebody knew the difference.

Samsung's site doesn't list those two codenames. It might be a region thing.

The difference might lie in the graphic card. The Edira comes with Intel 4500MHD whereas the Satin comes with an ATI HD4650.

cheers ...

Both Satin and Edira seem to have an ATI Radeon 4650. See:
