Samsung Unveils Two New ATIV Laptops

Samsung has unveiled two new laptops that will target both the consumers who prefer the traditional laptop and those who want the convertible-hybrid device: the ATIV Book 9 Pro and ATIV Book 9 Spin.

The two new Samsung laptops run on the powerful Intel Core i7 processor, but they are not the same. The ATIV Book 9 Pro is a conventional laptop, and the ATIV Book 9 Spin is a convertible-hybrid laptop, according to The News Independent.

Customers may find the ATIV Book 9 Pro a bit bulkier compared to its hybrid counterpart because of its 14.2 x 9.83 x 0.7-inch dimensions and 4.45-pound weight. But it has the Intel Core i7 6700 HQ chip, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 950M graphic card and will work with the new Windows 10 OS, making it suitable for power users, The Next Digit reports.
