We were all waiting for the evolution of the Samsung Series 9 and so here it is and it includes both Intel and AMD/ The Samsung ATIV Book 9 Plus and Samsung ATIV book 9 Lite.

As you can see the design is close (if not the same) as the existing Samsung Series 9.  There’s a 13.3” screen (QHD+ 3200×1800) running Windows 8 on a Intel Core i5-4200U (GMA 4400 graphics) or AMD A6 quad-core. 4GB of RAM and 128GB of SSD are also being announced.

    So, while Asus promised a Haswell chip with GT3 (IRIS 5000) for the Zenbook Infinity, Samsung cheezes out with a HD-4400, which just barely improves on an HD-4000…

    Sadly, that’s good bye Samsung 9 Series from my short list, though it would be my #1 choice otherwise.

    I am really glad someone offers AMD chips in an ultrabook though…

    Was about time.

  3. Touko says:

    Steve, can you answer the question if the unit can scale down from 1800p to 900p while still using the entire display area?

  4. Re HD4400 says:

    @Tuoko

    maybe check the Haswell specs then you’ll see that the type of GPU (4400 or 5000) depends on the CPU type. The stronger and more expensive i5-4 and i7-4 have the 5000 GPU, this is not Samsung’s fault…
