The Book3 Ultra had a slightly later release date, and is available to pre-order from Tuesday 14th February. The later release date is because of the new Nvidia GeForce RTX, a visual computing platform.

The advancements on the Book2 Pro promise an upgraded display, processor and memory, plus a two-month free trial of Adobe Lightroom when you purchase a Book3. So, let’s get into the nitty gritty of the new device’s specifications, features, and, of course, the all-important buying information.

All four devices (Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro 14-inch, the Pro 16-inch, the Pro 360, and the Ultra) come in Beige and Graphite colourways with a 3K AMOLED display.

Like the brand new S23, Samsung has made a pledge to be more eco-conscious with the design of the Book3s, too. The devices incorporate ocean-bound plastic, and the packaging is at least 70 per cent recycled. The Book3 also has reduced overall power consumption, which is not only great for the environment, but also for its battery life and our wallets.

All four devices are ultra-thin and lightweight, making the Book3 fantastic for commuting.

The all new Samsung Galaxy Book3 makes any workload manageable. Just a few examples of the ways it makes work seamless are: the Galaxy Book Smart Switch, which transfers all files and data from your old PC to your new one in one swoop; you can also automatically transfer RAW files from your smartphone to edit on your laptop; plus you can use the Book3 to control your smartphone or tablet. There’s instant hotspot, too, and Samsung Pass which enables secure access to your device.

You may have seen this recently on social media, but the ability to correct eye contact on video calls is also installed in the new Samsung Galaxy Book3. The software automatically creates eye contact during conversation with partners in video calls. There’s also automatic light correction.

The Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra has the best processor out of the three, with its 13th Gen Intel Core processor, 32GB memory and 45W CPU which is ideal for heavy workloads.

A refreshing feature on the Samsung Galaxy Book3 is that it comes with a portable and universal charger, which is the same charger used for all Samsung devices. This is a sweet change from other companies, such as Apple, which requires different chargers and add-ons for most of its devices.
