Samsung Introduces New Intelligent Connectivity Features on Galaxy Book4 Series in Collaboration with Microsoft

LONDON, UK – 9^th January 2024 – Samsung recently celebrated the release of the new Galaxy Book4 series – its most intelligent and powerful PC line-up yet. The latest series offers intelligent performance, enhanced security and a vivid, interactive display, all contained in an ultra-portable design.

Samsung has been elevating what a PC can do and has been collaborating with Microsoft to create new, seamless connected experiences. Now, these experiences are being advanced further with new connectivity features that make the Galaxy Book4 series smoother, smarter, and more adaptable, reinforcing Samsung and Microsoft’s commitment to providing the best PC experience possible.

Experience Seamless Multidevice Connectivity with Microsoft Copilot

Using intelligent, intuitive AI capabilities, Microsoft Copilot^[1] connects the Galaxy Book4 series with your smartphone to make them work seamlessly together. Microsoft Copilot empowers you to find, read or summarise text messages from your Samsung Galaxy phone and even automatically create and send messages on your behalf directly from your PC.

These capabilities mean you can let Copilot track down restaurant recommendations your friends have made in previous messages, search visitor reviews on your browser, then send a message to your partner to ask if they want to go for dinner that evening, all directly from your PC. Without having to turn on your phone and open each individual app, the Galaxy Book4 series lets you access smartphone functions and information faster and smarter.

With Microsoft Copilot, you can enjoy a seamless connectivity experience between devices that feels like using just one device, making managing daily tasks smoother and more efficient. As Microsoft Copilot progressively expands to handle more apps, the connected experience with other Samsung Galaxy devices is set to get more intelligent, powerful and convenient.

Transform Your Smartphone into a Powerful PC Camera

The rise of hybrid working means video conferencing has become the norm for collaboration. The Galaxy Book4 series now empowers you to turn your phone camera into a PC webcam1, for example, letting you access Galaxy smartphones’ powerful cameras for video calls on virtual conferencing apps such as Microsoft Teams.

Thanks to the excellent image quality, you will feel fully present with your work colleagues, and you can switch freely between front and rear cameras with just a click to adapt to any setup. If you want to quickly change your frame to include the others in the room, get up and walk around while speaking or even just show your colleagues the view out the window, easy camera switching lets you stay mobile and flexible without needing to adjust your PC at all. You can also apply a variety of features from your phone to your call – including Background Blur and Auto-framing – that help focus your image in any environment, whether working in a busy coffee shop or communicating from a company boardroom.

This powerful, portable webcam functionality enhances any camera experience so users can enjoy both high-quality smartphone visuals and unrestricted PC productivity at the same time.

Through tight, ongoing collaboration between Samsung and Microsoft, more intelligent capabilities will continue to be made possible on the Galaxy Book4 series.

Plus, by pairing your Galaxy Book4 with other Galaxy devices beyond smartphones, you can take your PC experience even further. For example, you can use your Tab S9 Ultra as a monitor for your PC so you can maximise productivity and creativity with an extended screen. With Galaxy Buds2 Pro, your PC will provide immersive sound with reduced latency so you can enjoy crystal-clear call quality or be fully immersed in a movie. With all these capabilities and more, the Galaxy Book4 series is designed to deliver the best PC experience possible.
