Samsung managed to present its news before the conference itself, which ended a little while ago, so we can take a closer look at the news now. Except Galaxy Tab S3 the South Koreans presented one more piece – Galaxy Book. Galaxy Book 10.6 a Galaxy The Book 12 differs in the diagonal of the display, thus also in its overall size and, of course, in some specifications, while the larger of the variants is also more powerful. Unlike the Tab S3, it doesn't run on them Android, Of Windows 10. Both versions are mainly aimed at professionals and it is quite possible that they will not even be available here, similar to the recently introduced Samsung Chromebook Plus.

Smaller Galaxy The Book has a 10,6-inch TFT LCD display with a resolution of 1920×1280. The Intel Core m3 processor (7th generation) with a clock speed of 2.6GHz takes care of the performance and it is supported by 4GB of RAM. The memory (eMMC) can be up to 128GB, but there is also support for microSD cards and a USB-C port. The good news is that the 30.4W battery boasts fast charging. Finally, there is also a 5-megapixel rear camera.

Larger Galaxy Book is significantly better than its smaller brother in many aspects. First of all, it has a 12-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2160×1440. It also offers an Intel Core i5-7200U processor (7th generation) clocked at 3.1GHz. The choice will be between a version with 4GB RAM + 128GB SSD and 8GB RAM + 256GB SSD. In addition to the 5-megapixel front camera, the larger version also boasts a 13-megapixel rear camera, two USB-C ports and a slightly larger 39.04W battery with fast charging. Of course, there is support for microSD cards.

Both models will then offer LTE Cat.6 support, the ability to play videos in 4K and Windows 10 with apps like Samsung Notes, Air Command and Samsung Flow. Likewise, owners can enjoy full Microsoft Office for maximum productivity. The package will also include a keyboard with larger keys, which will essentially turn the tablet into a laptop. Both the larger and smaller versions support the S Pen stylus.

Hands-on with the 12″ version Galaxy Book from SAMmobile:

Samsung has not yet announced how much its new high-end tablets will cost, but don't count on a low price. In the same way, we will probably disappoint you with the availability, because probably not one of the variants will be sold here.
