The Galaxy Book3 Ultra features the latest 13th Gen Intel Corei9 processor, making it the fastest Galaxy Book to date, as well as the NVIDIA RTX GeForce 4070 Laptop GPU, providing studio-grade graphics to enhance both creative projects and the gaming experience. For the first time, Samsung’s Dynamic AMOLED 2X Display — first used in the Galaxy premium smartphone lineup display — is featured in the Galaxy Book3 Ultra and Pro series. Its 3K (2880×1800) resolution shows incredibly fine detail, and the adaptive 120Hz refresh rate offers a smooth and slick viewing experience. The display is also VESA ClearMR and DisplayHDR TRUE BLACK 500 certified and has received SGS Eye Care Display certification for the guaranteed reduction of blue light. All these improvements empower users to perform multiple demanding tasks, watch rich and detailed content without loss of fidelity and play high-spec games smoothly. Plus, depending on your viewing needs, you can opt for either a 14-inch or 16-inch display featuring a 16:10 aspect ratio with the Galaxy Book3 Ultra and Pro series.
The audio quality of the Galaxy Book3 Ultra and Pro series is more refined, with a new quad speaker system that delivers clear, high notes and a rich bass sound. Studio quality dual microphones, along with AI Noise Canceling, clearly capture your voice and reduce background noise. And as video calls are now a part of everyday life, you can confidently join anytime and still look your best with Studio Mode, which offers improved visuals with lighting correction, auto framing, eye contact correction and smooth backgrounds.
The new Galaxy Book3 Ultra and Pro series uses a full aluminum frame for a premium look and feel — ensuring an enhanced user experience while preserving its light, sleek and flat design. Samsung is committed to the eco-conscious designs of the Galaxy Book3 Ultra and Pro series, furthering our efforts to preserve the planet for generations to come.
