Specs, performance and features
The Galaxy Book4 series is equipped with new Intel Core Ultra 9 processor that combines a faster CPU (central processing unit), a higher-performance graphics processing unit (GPU) and a newly added neural processing unit (NPU) into a single package.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU takes the user experience to the next level. Creativity is supercharged with fast, generative AI-based creation tools backed by NVIDIA Studio technology. You can create stunning images with simple text in seconds with RTX-optimized Stable Diffusion.
Galaxy Book 4 Ultra lowers heat and fan noise with a new optimal cooling system, including an 11 percent wider vapor chamber and a dual fan with an uneven blade spacing design. The Ultra model can also quickly top up an additional 55 percent battery life in just 30 minutes using 140W adaptor.
The series boasts an incredible viewing experience with a Dynamic AMOLED 2X display that offers clear contrast and vivid color. Vision Booster uses an Intelligent Outdoor Algorithm to automatically enhance visibility and color reproduction in bright conditions, while anti-reflective technology reduces distracting reflections.
With a touchscreen now added to all three models, the Galaxy Book 4 series not only delivers a clear viewing experience but is also completely interactive — offering an optimized and familiar touch-based user interface, just like the experience on your smartphone or tablet.
