Samsung Galaxy Book 4 goes up against the MacBook Air M1 model in India with its premium design and Intel chip
Samsung has launched its new MacBook rival in the Indian market in the form of the Galaxy Book 4 laptop which runs on Windows 11 out of the box. Samsung has other Galaxy Book laptops available in the country but the vanilla Book 4 model focuses on being premium without burning a deep hole in your wallet. It has an AMOLED screen, weighs under 1.6 kg, and is powered by the latest Intel Ultra processors.
Samsung Galaxy Book 4 has launched in India for a starting price tag of Rs 74,990 for the Intel Core Ultra 5 with 8GB RAM model. If you pick up the same Intel processor with 16GB RAM, the price goes to Rs 79,990 and if you get the Intel Core Ultra 7 variant with 16GB RAM only, it costs you Rs 89,990.
Like we mentioned, the Galaxy Book 4 has a 15.6-inch AMOLED display that offers full HD resolution and up to 120Hz refresh rate. Samsung is offering the laptop with Intel Core Ultra 5 or 7 processors, with up to 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD storage that is expandable.
The laptop has a 720p webcam, dual speakers tuned by Dolby Atmos and Windows 11 out of the box. It has a fingerprint scanner and with Windows 11 you get the Hello security feature. You get basic ports like USB C, USB 3.2 Gen 2 port, HDMI, and even the microSD card reader. The laptop weighs just 1.55 kg which is a rarity in the sub Rs 90,000 segment.
Even though these specs give the MacBook a run for its money, one cannot really compare the latest Intel Core Ultra processors with Apple’s M-series silicone. Having said that, Apple’s new Macs now come for well over a lakh, and if you are in the market for a Windows laptop for under the six-digit figure, Samsung could be one of the many options for you.
