Here are these new computers

Samsung is looking to cater to a wide range of users with these computers, as the company just unveiled several devices. So, there are four different computers. There’s the Galaxy Book 3 Pro, Galaxy Book 3 360, Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360, and the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra.

Check out the Galaxy Unpacked event

Galaxy Book 3 Pro

Now, we move on to the lower-end model. This computer comes in a 14-inch and a 16-inch size. While this computer is the lowest-end model, it has the same display specs as the two more premium models.

This computer uses the 13th-gen Intel Core i7 (with an option for an i5) backed up by 8GB/16GB/32GB of RAM and 256GB/512GB/1TB of SSD storage.

Keeping the lights on, we have a 76Wh battery (63Wh for the 14-inch model) battery, and the computer supports 65W charging. This computer has the same ports as the 360 model.

Galaxy Book 3 360

This model comes in both 13.3-inch and 15.6-inch sizes. They’re both AMOLED displays with FHD resolution. What’s notable about the screen is that it can rotate a full 360 degrees to be converted into a tablet.

We’re looking at the 13th-gen Intel Core i7 processor (with an option for the Core i5 depending on your region) with 8GB/16GB/32GB of RAM and 256GB/512GB/1TB of storage.

The 13.3-inch model has a 61Wh battery while the 15.6-inch model comes with a 68Wh battery. As for ports, there’s a Thunderbolt 4 port, USB-C port, USB-A port, micro SD card port, and a headphone/microphone jack.

Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360

The Pro model’s specs are, of course, much more premium. This model has a 16-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a 2880 x 1800 resolution. Also, it runs at a 120Hz refresh rate with a 400nit peak brightness.

Keeping the lights on is a 76Wh battery. This computer supports 65W charging. That’s 35% slower than the Ultra model, but all of the ports are the same. The only difference is that the HDMI port is HDMI 1.4.

Galaxy Book 3 Ultra

So, as you can guess, the Ultra model is the most premium model. It has a large 16-inch 2X AMOLED display with a resolution of 2880 x 1800 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Powering it, we have the 13th-gen Intel Core i9 processor backed up by the NVIDIA RTX GeforceTM 4070 GPU. These are top-notch specs, so you’ll be able to get all kinds of work and play done. The main thing about this computer is the amount of raw power you’re getting with it.

It comes in at 1.79kg (3.9lbs), so it’s not a featherweight. As for the memory and RAM, we’re looking at 16GB/32GB of RAM and 512/1TB of storage. There’s also an expansion slot to add more.

There’s a large 76Wh battery, and it can be charged with the 100W USB-C adaptor. As for ports, there are two Thunderbolt 4 ports, a USB-A port, an HDMI 2.0 port, and a headphone/microphone jack.
