Optimized for Efficiency
The Galaxy Book is available in 10.6- and 12-inch variations and features a premium, full-metal design that’s thin and lightweight.

Available in black or white and the included keyboard cover comes complete with a large touchpad that offers plenty of room to comfortably maneuver through files or tabs. The curved, island-style keys are well spaced to reduce typos, and feature an adjustable backlight.

Both Galaxy Book editions are powered by seventh-generation Intel Core processors that provide premium, PC-level performance. The 10.6-inch edition comes equipped with 4GB of RAM and a choice of 64GB or 128GB of storage, while the 12-inch model is available in a choice of either 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, or 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage capacity. Both models allow users to add additional storage via microSD card.

In addition, the 12-inch Galaxy Book’s vibrant Super AMOLED display and the 10.6-inch edition’s TFT screen both support 4K video playback. Their batteries charge fast, providing up to 10 hours of power for the 10.6-inch model and up to 10.5 hours for the 12-inch.

One of the Galaxy Book’s features is its new, multifunctional S Pen, which helps users adopt a more convenient and hands-on approach to their work.

Samsung’s S Pens offer a digital writing experience. The Galaxy Book’s S Pen is the most accurate yet, thanks to its fine, 0.7mm tip, industry-leading sensitivity – recognizing 4,096 levels of pressure – and ability to vary the thickness of its strokes depending on the angle at which it’s tilted. Moreover, the S Pen does not require a battery to function.

The Galaxy Book also features support for the S Pen’s PDF Annotation function,and Adobe Photoshop. The S Pen’s stroke-width adjusting ‘Tilt’ function helps fine-tuning images with the professional software.

Both Galaxy Book models are additionally available in LTE-compatible versions, to cater to always-connected lifestyles, and may be easily integrated into a user’s personal device ecosystem via Samsung Flow.It also sets up secure hotspots and unlock their tablet via their smartphone’s fingerprint sensor.

Transfers between the connected devices are seamless, and enable users to stay up to date without sacrificing data security or efficiency. Combining powerful, PC-level performance with the signature convenience of the S Pen, Samsung’s Galaxy Book 2-in-1 device is less of a tablet and more of a highly portable personal computer.
