Light and Portable Design to Record Unlimited Creativity

The Galaxy Book series is designed to flexibly satisfy users’ mobile working demands with its ultra-thin, light and portable design. The Galaxy Book Pro 360 comes with a touch screen that can rotate 360 degrees, allowing it to be used as either a tablet or a laptop. Thin and light, coupled with solid metal finish, it is one of the thinnest laptops of the type, so that users can write or create any time. The improved S Pen offers a more true-to-life grip and writing experience. Users can jot down ideas anytime, anywhere, and never miss a moment of creative inspiration. Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 360 is available in Mystic Navy, Mystic Silver and Mystic Bronze. The stylish and unique Mystic Bronze color is now available for preferential pre-order at Samsung Online Shop and Samsung Experience Stores.

The Galaxy Book Pro series is equipped with military-grade durability[1]. Coupled with a more compact charger supporting 65W Super Fast Charging, the device has an up to 20-hour battery life, allowing users to complete tasks on hand anywhere with ease. The 13.3-inch Galaxy Book Pro is one of the thinnest laptops available, measuring just 11.2mm thin and weighing only 0.87kg. It is as portable as a smartphone. The Galaxy book comes with a portable and thin profile that could unfold to reveal a wide workspace. The lightweight, full aluminum body offers durability.

Interconnected and Comprehensive Galaxy Mobile Ecosystem

The Galaxy Book series comes with brand new Quick Share[3] that allows users to share content between Galaxy devices in just a few clicks. Simply drag and drop multiple files and content between the Galaxy Book and other Galaxy notebooks or smartphones with near instant transfer.

The Galaxy Book series also doubles as the ultimate smart home hub. With the SmartThings app on the Galaxy Book series, users can sit on the couch and control all IoT devices[4], such as turning off the lights, changing the temperature, or even turning on kitchen appliances. With SmartThings Find, quickly locate Bluetooth-paired Galaxy smartphones, tablets or wearables, and never fear losing a device again.

The Galaxy Book series can work effortlessly with other Galaxy devices for increased productivity and efficiency. Second screen[5] allows users to expand their display onto a Galaxy Tab and use it as an assistant screen for easier multitasking and enhanced productivity with Duplicate and Extend modes. With Link to Windows and Microsoft Your Phone[6] integration, users can take calls, check notifications, access photos, messages and run up to five apps simultaneously from their smartphone directly on the desktop – all at once[7].

In addition, with the auto-synced[8] Samsung Notes between Galaxy devices, users can jot down an idea and view or edit it on any other device whenever they have a moment of creative inspiration. Users can utilize the Easy Bluetooth connection[9]. Simply open the case near the laptop, and the Galaxy Book series will be easily paired with the Galaxy Buds, allowing a seamless cross-device experience.

With Galaxy Book Smart Switch[10], quickly transfer favorite photos, movies, files and music from the existing Windows PC to the new Galaxy Book series. Galaxy Book Smart Switch even keeps settings and moves the UWP (Universal Windows Platform) apps, so that users can get back to creating and connecting faster.

More Productivity, Less Interruption with Powerful Performance

The Galaxy Book Pro series comes with powerful performance with 11th Gen Intel® Core™ processor that enables high-speed computing. The Intelligent Performance Manager provides four switchable modes for optimized performance. The Intelligent Performance mode automatically modulates fan noise, temperature and battery usage to balance performance and power consumption to deliver a smooth experience that lasts all day so users can focus on work and enhance productivity. Users can also manually adjust to other modes: High performance mode for gaming; Silent mode to save battery power; or No Fan mode that runs completely silent.

The Galaxy Book Pro 360’s Super AMOLED display[11] and Intel^® Iris^® Xe graphics presents sharp and vivid colors, so that users can enjoy the best visual experience whether they are creating or watching movies. The displays of the Galaxy Book Pro 360 and Galaxy Book Pro are Eye Care-certified by SGS[12] producing less blue light emissions to help users’ eyes stay fresh. Intelligent Color Engine[13] will automatically fine-tune the color space depending on the task at hand. Movies and games will appear vivid and intense in DCI-P3 or AMOLED Native color profiles; and for tasks like photo editing, where people may want the pictures to look true-to-life, the Galaxy Book Pro series will automatically optimize the color.

The Galaxy Book series makes daily work more productive and enjoyable. The reengineered Pro Keyboard of the Galaxy Book Pro 360 and Galaxy Book Pro includes a scissor mechanism that increases typing speed and comfort with wide keys and rubber domes to provide a satisfying 1mm of travel length in near silence. The touchpad of the Galaxy Book Pro series is 23 percent larger[14] to allow more room to scroll through websites or pinch to zoom into details. The dual mic array on the new Galaxy Book series can record clear voices while cancelling background noise. With the filter in Studio mode, users can make good presentations regardless of the environment and enjoy a great video call experience. With Screen Recorder, users can record the screen along with their voice to produce a video quickly.
