Samsung has launched a handful of Windows-powered products at the Consumer Electronics Show 2016. If you didn't quite like the Windows 10-powered Galaxy TabPRO S perhaps the company's new Notebook 9 laptops will be more to your liking. They are available in 13.3-inch and 15-inch sizes with both having a full HD 1080p LCD display and the choice of 6th generation Intel Core i5 or Core i7 processors so performance should be right up there with the best of them.
These notebooks are fashioned out of magnesium, they're sturdy and yet lightweight to ensure easy portability, with Samsung promising all day battery life. One significant difference between the two models is that the 13.3-inch Notebook 9 doesn't feature a USB Type-C port whereas the 15-inch model does, both of them have two USB 3.0 ports. Salient features also include:
- Ultra-light: Samsung Notebook 9 series offers ultra-portability, with the world lightest 13.3-inch Notebook 9 weighing less than 1 kilogram, offering ultimate ease and convenience when on-the-go.
- Vivid and Bright Display: The full-HD display provides superior brightness with a wide angle and low-reflective screen for a comfortable viewing experience from a variety of positions.
- Extended Battery Life: The 15-inch Notebook 9 provides battery life for up to 12 hours, and the Quick Charging feature enables users to fully charge in just 20 minutes. The 13.3-inch Notebook 9 offers up to 10 hours of battery life on one charge.
- Enhanced Security: The new security feature Security CAM allows users to take and send photos through an equipped camera to a pre-registered email in case of theft. The Pattern Log-in, Secret Screen, and Record Block features help users protect private files and information.
- Seamless Productivity: Samsung Link 2.0 and SideSync 4.0 let users access shareable content more easily and efficiently. Also, the UL (Underwriters Laboratories) certified ergonomic keyboard provides enhanced comfort and accuracy.
The new notebooks will be available in Iron Silver and Modern Pink colors in select markets starting early 2016, pricing will vary by market.
