Samsung has formally launched the Galaxy Book5 series in India, providing AI-based computing at a lower cost. Priced at ₹1,14,900 and upwards, the new series is priced ₹15,000 lower than the existing Galaxy Book4 models, thus making it an enticing choice for users who want premium features without compromising on price.
The Galaxy Book5 lineup is shipped with Microsoft's Copilot+ PC experience, which introduces an interface driven by artificial intelligence to make everyday tasks easy. The lineup also features new features such as AI Select, Recall, and Photo Remaster to make picture editing easier and search functions more user-friendly.
Samsung has used AI computing in its laptops for the first time, and that too through the addition of a neural processing unit (NPU) that allows for smarter workflow and smoother multitasking. Among the most prominent features is AI Select, which operates like the "Circle to Search" feature, letting users get quick information at their fingertips with one click.
Then there's Photo Remaster, which leverages AI to enhance the quality of photos by making them sharper and clearer, making photo edits easier for users.
Microsoft's Copilot+ further complements AI functionality, and it provides aid for tasks such as research, scheduling, and presentations. Dedicated Copilot key is available in the laptops, offering AI-driven assistance at a button press.
Beneath the hood, the Galaxy Book5 lineup runs on Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) processors, which provide up to 3x the AI computing performance and 40% less power consumption than earlier versions. These advances mean more intelligent workflows, longer battery life, and improved graphics performance. For example, the Galaxy Book5 Pro is able to charge up to 41% in 30 minutes and provides up to 25 hours of battery life.
For entertainment-conscious users, the Galaxy Book5 Pro devices come with Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays, featuring 3K resolution, a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, and Vision Booster technology for rich visuals. The Quad Speaker setup with Dolby Atmos guarantees great sound, making the series ideal for both work and play.
Samsung has also emphasized connectivity, with seamless integration between Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets. The Phone Link, Quick Share, Multi-Control, and Second Screen features provide a seamless experience across devices. On top of that, Samsung Knox security provides strong privacy and data protection.
