WHAT IS A GALAXY BOOK?

Meet the Galaxy Books, Samsungs range of ultrabooks designed to harness the power of a laptop, and combine it with the mobility of a smartphone. This is a brilliant addition to your technology ecosystem, as it’s packed with awesome features that enhance your experience both with the laptop and across devices.

This can include effortless connectivity with your phone, as you can open up to 5 apps side by side on the galaxy book screen. Meaning you could play music through Spotify, scroll through Instagram, browse a quick web search and quickly read messages on one screen!

We also love quick share, which allows you to share content across devices with one click, now that picture you edited on the laptop is straight on your phone and ready to send out, or those notes taken in an important meeting are sent to your work computer to be opened whenever you need them.

As part of your Samsung ecosystem, you can find ‘SmartThings find’, which allows you to easily locate any of your Samsung devices. Forgot where you last left your phone? No problem, you can quickly track it. Gave your Galaxy tablet to the kids and now it’s misplaced? It’s a good job you can save the time and trouble of finding it by locating it through ‘SmartThings find’.

As connectivity is at the heart of this powerful laptop range, you can find a huge variety of ports, so you’re ready for any task. This ranges from a memory card slot to USB 3.2, HDMI, USB C and Thunderbolt 4.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

As a new range of laptops, we can find the latest internet connectivity options to enhance the speed and reliability of your experience, including WiFi 6 and 5G. Whilst many models also have the latest version of Bluetooth enabled, Bluetooth 5.1.

You can also find mighty components such as the Intel i7 quad-core processors and integrated Iris Xe graphics. Plus, with Dolby Atmos support, fingerprint readers and up to 16GB RAM, these Ultrabooks offer you everything you’ll need from a laptop and more.

DESIGN

The gorgeous design on the galaxy book range combines a minimalistic style that features slim bezels and metallic casing in a variety of colours.

Portability is enhanced as these laptops are almost as thin as a phone, with around 11.2mm thickness and some weighing a mind-blowing 868 grams! Whilst their thin and lightweight design offers portability, it doesn’t mean they lack durability, as you can find military-grade durability on this range, offering you peace of mind when on the go.

SCREEN

Here we can find Samsung AMOLED screens on select models, a display which we have previously seen on their Samsung phones. This offers both vibrant colours as well as deep contrast, so you can enjoy everything from your holiday pictures to a Netflix movie with bold and bright visuals. Choose between a 13” and 15” Full HD display to find the ideal screen size for your needs.

WHAT IS THE BATTERY Life OF THE GALAXY BOOK?

The battery life on this range does not disappoint! With up to 21 hours of battery life, you can use it to work in the day and unwind at night on just one charge. Forgot to charge it through the night? No worries! With its fast-charging capabilities, you can enjoy up to 9 hours of battery life in just 30 minutes! So, by the time you’ve grabbed a morning coffee and a croissant, the laptop is charged up and ready for a full day’s work.

Plus, charging on the go is easier than ever as you can use the same fast charger you use for your mobile on the laptop! So long gone are the days of carrying clunky laptop chargers around with you.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE GALAXY BOOK, PRO AND PRO 360?

The Galaxy book is the most affordable model out of the range. It follows the same sleek design as the others but is slightly heavier than the pro models. We also have an LED display rather than AMOLED, as well as a slightly smaller battery than the Pro range.

Despite this, the Galaxy Book still provides you with everything you need, from the same full HD display, intel i5 or i7 processors, 256GB SSD and Intel Iris Xe graphics. So, you’re still getting an awesome all-round laptop with brilliant specs and features, for a more affordable price than the others in the range.

The Galaxy Book Pro sits at a slightly higher price but offers more in return for this. You can find a thinner and lighter casing, but in the same style as the book. We see an AMOLED display on this model, which offers impressive contrast, responsiveness and bold colours. As well as a slightly bigger battery, for more power when on the go.

Things get really exciting with the Galaxy Book Pro 360, which has an awesome 360 hinge and touchscreen that allows you to use it in whichever way suits you. Whether that’s using the 2-in-1 as a tablet for games, utilising the Stylus pen for precision on graphics, or collaborative work by folding it. We know the working world is no longer rigid, so the 360 enables you to work in whichever way you find most comfortable, increasing your creative output.

ARE GALAXY BOOKS GOOD FOR BUSINESS PROFESSIONALS?

Yes! The galaxy books (especially the Pro and Pro 360) are a brilliant choice for business professionals as they are an absolute powerhouse that is designed to offer sleek style, portability and power for a full day’s work.

Plus, up to 21-hour battery life will support you from meetings with clients to business trips, so it’s ready to work for as long as you are.

These are also a great choice for employees, the more affordable galaxy book places everything your employees will need right in their hands. From great processors and graphics to 8GB RAM for multitasking and 156GB SSD for storing important work documents, all at a great price.

ARE GALAXY BOOKS GOOD FOR STUDENTS?

Whilst the Galaxy Book Pro’s may sit at a slightly expensive price for students, the galaxy book does come at a more affordable price. Plus, here at Box you can spread the cost interest-free into smaller instalments.

The portability on this laptop makes it easy to carry alongside textbooks, and the specs will allow you to whizz through assignments with ease. Plus, the super-long battery life is there to support you all day from lectures to all-night essay writing.
