The Galaxy Book 5 Pro has been announced for the South Korean market. It will be available for purchase starting January 2, 2025. It comes in 14-inch and 16-inch variants and has two color options: Grey and Silver.

Both laptop variants use the Intel Core Ultra Processor Series 2 processor, which features an NPU with 47 TOPS of performance for on-device AI. Samsung hasn't revealed memory and storage figures for its new laptop yet.

The onboard webcam on this laptop is the first from Samsung to feature Staggered HDR. It merges multiple frames at different exposures for a wide dynamic range and better colors. The Galaxy Book 5 Pro has a backlit keyboard and a large multitouch trackpad (with Windows Precision drivers).

Samsung says the large battery inside the Galaxy Book 5 Pro can last up to 25 hours of active usage. It has one HDMI 2.1 port, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, one USB Type-A port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. It also has a microSD card slot.
