Samsung Windows 8 Touch Screen All in One 27" DP700 7 Series Unboxing Linus Tech Tips

The Samsung DP700 7 Series All-in-One with a 27 inch display is shown in this unboxing and first look. The presenter highlights the robust packaging, noting thick foam protection around the unit during transit and the included accessories such as a wireless keyboard and mouse with a sturdy aluminum build. He observes the overall build quality as impressive for an all-in-one, and explains that while the bundled peripherals are usable, a higher-end wireless keyboard and mouse from brands like Logitech would enhance the experience. The device itself is unveiled with the plastic removed, revealing a slim profile, a metal-appearing stand, and a glossy recessed bezel. He explains the gesture controls, comparing them to Samsung Smart TV gestures, and demonstrates basic actions like closing apps, adjusting volume, and returning to the Windows 8 Home screen, noting the 10-point multi-touch capability. While discussing the display, he notes a high resolution that appears to be 2560x1440 on the panel, described as a PLS panel with edge-to-edge glass, which allows edge swipes to access Windows 8 gestures. The reviewer then runs through the physical inputs on the sides, including USB ports, HDMI in and out, DisplayPort, Ethernet, and a built-in optical drive with touch controls for brightness and volume. He also touches on the internal components and upgradeability, mentioning 8 GB of RAM, a 7850 GPU, and a 1 TB drive, while suggesting the potential value of upgrading to an SSD for better performance. The video closes with a practical demonstration of the Start screen and a cooking-themed Jamie Oliver app, along with touch-based navigation, and ends by praising the device’s aesthetics and calling out the high-resolution multi-touch experience as a highlight of the Windows 8 All-in-One.
