Discover the Galaxy Book3 Ultra - Samsung's Most Powerful Laptop Model

This year, in addition to the redesigned Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro and Book3 Pro 360, we also have the Galaxy Book3 Ultra - Samsung's most powerful laptop masterpiece that has just been officially launched.
Although all three laptop models have many new features, the center of attention is undoubtedly the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra. This is Samsung's most powerful laptop equipped with the 13th generation Intel Core H-series processor, and if users choose the Core i9 version, it will have 14 cores, 20 threads, and a clock speed of up to 5.4 GHz.
In addition, users can also choose a version with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GPU (there is also another option which is RTX 4050), suitable for light gaming and more importantly for performing tasks related to creative work. The Galaxy Book3 Ultra also features 32 GB of RAM and an SSD up to 1 TB, with an additional SSD slot available if you need more storage capacity.

This display is also said to be much sharper than previous Samsung laptops, with a resolution of 2,880 x 1,800 pixels and a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz for smooth performance.
The device also comes with a 1080p webcam but lacks facial recognition feature. The Galaxy Book3 Ultra also supports connectivity ports such as Thunderbolt 4, USB Type-A, HDMI, and a headphone jack like other Galaxy Book3 models.
The Galaxy Book3 Ultra has a thickness of 16.5 mm, quite thin for a laptop with a discrete graphics card, and weighs only 3.9 pounds (approximately 1.76 kg). Unlike previous Galaxy Book models, the device features an aluminum chassis for a premium feel but also significantly heavier compared to magnesium alloy frames.
The Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra is now available for pre-order starting today through the Samsung website with a starting price of $2,399 (about 56.2 million VND).

The product features the 13th generation Intel Core P-series processor along with up to 32 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD accompanied by some other notable upgrades.
The Galaxy Book3 Pro comes in 2 versions: a 14-inch and a 16-inch display, both with a 16:10 aspect ratio. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Book3 Pro 360 model only has a 16-inch display version and currently supports touch and S Pen, along with a 360-degree hinge for easy rotation, allowing users to use it as a true tablet.
However, in terms of specifications, the displays of the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro and Galaxy Book3 Pro 360 are the same as the Galaxy Book3 Ultra model: Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with a resolution of 2,880 x 1,800 pixels, combined with a 120 Hz refresh rate. This is also a new standard and a significant advancement over the Galaxy Book 2 Pro series which still uses a Full HD - 60 Hz resolution panel.
Furthermore, the design of the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro and Galaxy Book3 Pro 360 has also changed. Instead of aiming for an extremely lightweight frame, Samsung now focuses on a more luxurious and premium style with a solid aluminum chassis.

However, in terms of size, these laptops are still quite light and thin. The 14-inch Galaxy Book3 Pro is only 11.3 mm thin, the 16-inch Galaxy Book3 Pro is 12.5 mm thin, and the Galaxy Book3 Pro 360 is 12.8 mm thick.
Samsung also brings back the 5G version for the Galaxy Book3 Pro 360. Previously, there was the 2021 Galaxy Book3 Pro 360 5G, but in 2022, Samsung did not release a 5G version for the Galaxy Book.
The Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro lineup has a starting price of $1,449 (about 33.9 million VND), but that price will vary greatly depending on the size and configuration chosen by the user. The product is now available for delivery starting on February 17th in South Korea and some other countries.

Samsung focuses on improving connectivity between Galaxy devices (Image: Samsung)Samsung continues to enhance integration between laptops and smartphones, such as improving the Link to Windows feature and Samsung Multi Control.
These features allow you to control your Galaxy tablet or phone using the keyboard and mouse on your Galaxy Book laptop and vice versa. Previously, you could only interact with Samsung tablets in this way, but now users can use a Galaxy tablet as a second screen for their laptop.
Not stopping there, now you can set up for Expert RAW photos from your phone to automatically transfer to your laptop, so users can quickly edit them in Adobe Lightroom. Other useful features of the Galaxy Book3 series include Samsung Pass and Single Sign-On, allowing you to easily log in to all your Samsung apps while entering your Samsung account password only once.
