The Q1 can boot into two different modes: typical Windows XP (OS can be replaced), and AVS mode running Windows XP Embedded. AVS mode runs in a separate partition and boots directly to a music, photo, and video player with no Windows Explorer interface. The AVS feature is unique to the Q1.

Samsung Q1 SSD [edit]

The SSD version is identical to the Q1 except that the 40 GB hard disk drive has been replaced by Samsung's 32 GB solid-state drive. At release, the SSD version was about twice as expensive as the normal Q1.

Samsung Q1b [edit]

The Q1b is Samsung's second UMPC device, with a much improved battery life and 30% brighter screen compared to the Q1. The CF port and the Ethernet port have been removed on this version. It also has a mono speaker and a single microphone.

Samsung Q1F (Pentium M) [edit]

Manufacturer Part #: NP-Q1-F000

This is almost identical to the original Q1 but with a faster 1 GHz Intel Pentium M processor (723) which enables speedstep technology for better battery usage. It is possible to buy a 6-cell battery instead of the default 3-cell to double the time on all these devices. The Pentium edition also has:

  • 1 GB DDR2 RAM
  • 60 GB Hard Drive
  • Microsoft Windows Vista

Samsung Q1 Ultra [edit]

The Ultra model runs on an 800 MHz Intel A110 processor and includes dual cameras, a 60GB hard disk, HSDPA and comes installed with Microsoft Vista.[1]

All Q1U models offer a new split keyboard, 1GB of RAM (reportedly user upgradeable to 2GB), SD card slot and 1024×600 screen. A GPS accessory is also offered, which may be used with the included mapping software.[citation needed]

Samsung Q1 Ultra Premium [edit]

Uses an Intel Core Solo U1500 processor at 1330 MHz. 1GB of RAM upgradeable to 2GB.

This is the most recently released and highest performance machine in the Q1 series.
