The Samsung Galaxy Book is a 2-in-1 PC that comes in 2 models: a 10.6-inch model and a 12-inch model.
Both devices run on Windows 10 and retain several features that are usually only found in the Samsung Galaxy Note series, such as Air Command, Smart Select, Samsung Notes, etc. Both models also come with a detachable cover and an S Pen (its first appearance on a Windows product). The Galaxy Book also supports quick-charge technology, which allows the tablet to charge fully in a shorter amount of time. In terms of battery life, the 10.6-inch option is claimed to last 10 hours, and the 12-inch model slightly longer at 10.5 hours.
It has 1920x1280 TFT FHD (10.6-inch) and 2160x1440 AMOLED (12.0-inch) resolution display with an aspect ratio of 3:2. The touch screen has 4096 levels of sensitivity.
On 27 February 2017, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Book alongside with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 at the MWC 2017.
