    Hi,

    I saw the review of this laptop here :
    http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Samsung-R522-Aura-Notebook.22234.0.html

    It seems like a great laptop that fit all my needs (lightweight, great gaming performance, great battery life, decent cost).

    Is there any owner of that laptop? Is there any other alternatives to that laptop?

    Also where will i be able to buy this laptop in Canada with the same specs mentioned in the review?

    Thank you for your help!

    Maybe no one here knows the answer to your question.

    However, the Samsung Canada site lists the R522P with these specifications (ie with T6500 CPU and HD4330 graphics).

    Historically, Samsung's German sales office have tended to order higher spec models from the factory than their UK office. It looks as if Samsung Canada (and USA) are similarly conservative. The lower and mid-range models are easier to sell while they are still trying to build up market presence.

    You might want to look into ordering the model you want from notebook.de.
