[Samsung](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wireless-keyboard-1)’s ‘N-series’ has produced some fine small computers, which includes the sleek and slender Samsung n310 netbook.

The Samsung n310 is a mere 10.1 inches and weighs less than 2kg but it doesn’t sacrifice size for quality. The computer comes with some pretty cool features as far as netbooks are concerned, featuring a built-in camera and a [full pebble keyboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/satechi-slim-ex-series) that won’t cramp your fingers.

The special thing about the Samsung n310’s keyboard is that it is coated with nano-sized silver ion powder that makes it impossible for bacteria to inhabit those hard-to-reach areas. It will [kill 99.9% of bacteria](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antimicrobial-additive) within a whole day.
