Samsung: a 12.2-inch Ultrabook 950 g and an all-in-one … – Clubic

  In addition to a curved monitor and a pair of omnidirectional speakers, Samsung unveiled ahead of CES 2015 ultra-thin laptop and a desktop all-in-one curved screen.

Samsung Ativ Book 9: 11.5 mm, 950 g and 12.2 inch high resolution screen


Samsung launches to start the computer ready rumor Apple: an ultra portable to “Retina” screen. The new generation of Ultrabook Ativ Book 9 measures only 11.5 mm thick, weighs only 950 g, but it certainly has a beautiful 12.2-inch screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. Which is the equivalent Retina (doubling of pixels along the horizontal and vertical axis) of a screen of 1280 x 800 pixels, and which corresponds to a resolution of 240 pixels / inch. This screen standard delivers a maximum brightness of 350 cd / m², it features an outdoor mode to bring it to 700 cd / m².

To achieve such finesse, Samsung has unsurprisingly recourse to aluminum but also and especially to the new Intel Core processors M Broadwell architecture, low-performance processors, but at the height of common uses for a lower TDP than or equal to 6 W (unknown exact reference). The computer is also cooled without using a fan.

As usual for announcements made ahead of CES, there are few details, but this time we know that Samsung has focused on audio, with a Wolfson DAC, that autonomy can reach 10 h 30 min and finally we know the prices and the approximate launch date, at least in the United States. The Samsung Ativ Book 9 will be on sale during the first quarter of 2015 to $ 1200 with 4GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD, or $ 1,400 respectively 8 and 256 GB.




Samsung Ativ One 7: an all-in-one integrated TV tuner and curved screen


Samsung has also introduced the Ativ One 7, the first computer desktop all-in-one market curved screen. The device clearly shows the characteristics of S27D590C Monitor launched last September, but adds the necessary components to make it self-sustaining.

So we find a 27-inch TN panel providing a modest Full HD. Its radius of curvature is only 4 m. The screen contains an unspecified Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM and a hybrid storage medium consisting of a hard disk 1TB operating at 5400 rev / min and an undisclosed amount of memory cache to flash speed up transfers. In addition to the usual USB 3.0 ports, HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet port and Wi-Fi connectivity, the computer features an antenna connection, indicating that embeds (perhaps only option) a TV tuner.

This Samsung Ativ One 7 will also be launched in the first quarter of 2015 at a retail price of $ 1,300.
