Maximized for Mobility

With the Notebook 9, feeling is believing. That’s because it’s incredibly light. Weighing in at just 1.8 pounds**, the 13.3-inch Notebook 9 is recognized as one of the lightest notebook on the market today, making it effortless to carry and perfect for getting work done on the go.

To help users enjoy even greater levels of mobility, Samsung went to great lengths to ensure that the Notebook 9’s battery would be exceptionally versatile, and capable of charging via a variety of means. Hence, the new notebook’s ability to conveniently charge via both USB Type-C smartphone chargers as well as external battery packs that provide more than 10 watts of power.

Achieving such compatibility, which adds considerable convenience and ensures that Notebook 9 users are never far from a power source, was no simple feat.

To further boost users’ mobility, Samsung also optimized the Notebook 9’s battery with Adaptive Fast Charge technology (AFC), so you can power up fast and get to work faster. The 13.3-inch model’s battery lasts up to 7 hours on a single charge (the 15-inch model’s lasts 15), and fully charges in just 80 minutes. That means a quick 20-minute charge provides over two hours of power (or more than 3.5 hours for the 15-inch device)***.

A Balanced and Functional Design

When honing the Notebook 9’s aesthetic, Samsung envisioned a design that would complement the technology within the device rather than draw attention away from it. The color options, for instance – Crush White, Violet Blue and Light Titan – were selected because they exude elegance and aesthetic harmony. Thanks to this ‘neutral’ approach, the notebook looks balanced and is comfortable to use.

The Notebook 9’s design is also heavily informed by function. Rather than focusing on a design that looked thin and featured tapered edges, the team made sure that the notebook’s corners were soft and rounded. Seemingly small touches such as this make the Notebook 9 incredibly easy to grip and slip into a bag before heading out the door.

Strength Backed by Rocket Science

The Notebook 9 derives its lightness and strength from its single-shell structure and Samsung’s use of a newly developed magnesium compound. Incorporating this lightweight and sturdy material into the Notebook 9’s solid, single-shell design has allowed Samsung to create a notebook that’s not only seamless and incredibly strong, but also exceptionally thin and not prone to bend.

The development team managed to add further strength to the Notebook 9’s design by reinforcing its body through Micro Arc Oxidation (MAO) – a hardness-boosting surface treatment commonly used in the aerospace, aviation and defense industries.

The electrochemical process involves applying a thick, largely crystalline oxide coating to the notebook’s body that provides ample protection against corrosion, shocks and general wear and tear. Employing this ‘rocket science’ allowed Samsung to bolster the Notebook 9’s hardness while maintaining its market-leading lightness.

Streamlined for Productivity

PC and mobile technologies are vital in this digital age, which is why Samsung consistently strives to identify ways to leverage its leading experience with these technologies to create streamlined, integrated solutions. With this in mind, Samsung incorporated productivity-boosting software such as PC Message and PC Gallery****, which allow users to manage messages (SMS and MMS), videos and photos between their smartphone and Notebook 9 with a simple sync of the two devices.

In addition, the Notebook 9’s near edge-to-edge Samsung RealView Display makes snapped photos truly pop, with support for true-to-life colors, high brightness levels and a wide viewing angle. To offer users more freedom to take their work outside, Samsung also added an Outdoor Mode to the Notebook 9’s display settings, which provides clear visuals even in strong sunlight.

Tough security is essential no matter where you work, which is why the Notebook 9 also features a highly versatile fingerprint sensor. Featuring support for Windows Hello, this tool enables users to comfortably and securely sign in to their Notebook 9 with a single touch.

Enjoy a versatile and powerfully portable notebook experience with the new Notebook 9!

The world today isn’t just looking for something unique, they’re looking for the unique in the everyday. At first what may appear to sound as a contradiction, this conceptual approach is what drives the essence of the product and fuels the designer’s imagination. Is it possible for a laptop computer to be both functional; easy to use and still be aesthetically pleasing? To answer that, the Samsung Notebook 9 returned to the source and asked the question: ‘what is a laptop computer?’ – a bare essence question that through rigorous trial and speculation has coalesced into a new perspective for laptop computers.

Lighter

Like its namesake a laptop should be easy to hold and carry around, like a notebook. Lighter, and smaller is the way to go. In any case, it shouldn’t be cumbersome in your hand or in your bag.

#1 Smaller Size

The very essence of a laptop is this: portability. To maximize this potential, the goal was to reduce the mass of the device itself without sacrificing screen real estate. Comparing with previous 13 inch models, the width is 309.4mm and height 208mm for a smaller yet maximized laptop.

#2 Lighter Weight

Instead of an aluminum exterior, a lighter magnesium compound was selected in reducing the 13 inch model to a mere 799 grams, improving the overall look & feel.

#3 Stronger Exterior

Smaller? Yes. Lighter? You bet. And still strong as ever. A lighter magnesium MAO surface treatment technology ensures a lightweight body with fortified exterior and corrosion resistant.

Easier

Whether you’re working or just surfing the web your laptop should be the least of your worries. The Samsung Notebook 9 has taken even the most minute details into consideration. From the keyboards to security, nothing is too small or big to overlook.

#1 Elegantly Curved

The keyboard is probably the most engaging component of the laptop. With that, a decidedly curved design was chosen both for ergonomic functionality but for aesthetics as well.

#2 More Reliable Security

Security is handled with a simple touch. Fingerprint recognition allows you quick access and is hidden among the keyboards so it’s not too obvious adding to the design.

#3 Sturdier Design

The rounded four corners give the Samsung Notebook 9 a neutral look but also acts as a shock absorb should you happen to lose hold of it. The LCD screen is inset from the bottom so that the impact of a fall will be less to the screen.

Smooth

A design that is discreet and yet captures the eye, subtly. With a neutral color palette, the new Samsung Notebook 9 is visually stable and inviting for anyone. Be it form, material or touch the Samsung Notebook 9 works harmoniously with any user by offering a counterbalance to your lifestyle.

#1 Harmonious Color

Crush white, Light Titan, Violet Blue are the colors available in the new Samsung Notebook 9. Colors that are neutral and genderless and carry with them a flair of harmony and elegance.

#2 Softer Finish

Corners and edges have been rounded out for a softer appeal as well as ease of handling when taking it in and out of your bag.

#3 Consistent Look

In line with the overall design approach, the keyboard colors match the color palette for a consistent look throughout*.

Well Balanced Design Essence

Ease of grip, keyboard touch, color combinations – these elements all come together to perfect the laptop computer. As neutrality is the encompassing theme of the Samsung Notebook 9, it is designed to align and integrate into your lifestyle, not only aesthetically with lines, contours and color but with function and ease of use. Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, the Samsung Notebook 9 ensures a seamless user experience with you and your lifestyle.
