Ultrathin 15.6-inch aluminum laptops from Samsung, based on the Intel Raptor Lake hardware platform. These are representatives of the third generation of Galaxy Book laptops. Depending on price and hardware configuration, they can belong to either the mid-range or high-end level. They are equipped with all the necessary tools for efficient operation, including a large, long-lasting battery, a convenient backlit keyboard, support for current interfaces, and a network controller supporting all current wireless protocols.
The device weighs just 1.57 kg, and the aluminum body is 15 mm thick, aligning it more with compact ultrabooks than bulky 15-inch laptops. The built-in battery holds its charge throughout the entire workday (claimed 7-8 hours depending on screen brightness). The webcam broadcasts images at 720p resolution. The camera software includes intelligent systems for background noise suppression and automatic framing.
The stereo speakers support Dolby Atmos. The keyboard is backlit for typing in the dark. Modern wireless receivers allow full use of Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity. User data and the laptop itself are guarded by a cryptographic TPM module for secure authentication in corporate networks and an "anti-theft" lock. According to the manufacturer, all these factors turn the Galaxy Book3 15 into a potentially useful tool for people who frequently travel to the office with their hardware or work extensively on the road.
The task of image output in the Galaxy Book3 series is handled by 15.6-inch IPS displays with 1080p resolution, a 60 Hz refresh rate, a standard brightness reserve of 300 cd/m², and not the most impressive color reproduction for this price range (65% sRGB, 43% DCI P3). High performance is guaranteed by a combination of a hybrid 10-core Core i7 processor (Alder Lake family, 12th generation) and the integrated Iris Xe Graphics G7. The system's responsiveness is ensured by 16 GB of LPDDR4X-4266 RAM and an M.2 SSD with a capacity ranging from 512 to 2048 GB. In top configurations, there can be two drives, providing a total of 4096 GB of storage.
