The price of the Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge for Europe will be around €1800
Samsung is working on a new addition to its Galaxy Book series called the Galaxy Book 4 Edge and now the first information has emerged about the future pricing of the device in Europe.
Here's What We Know
Samsung plans to release the Galaxy Book 4 Edge in the coming months. It will be the company's first laptop based on the Snapdragon X Elite processor. It is Qualcomm's high-performance ARM-SoC with 12 cores and up to 4.3GHz, and it is the first to use the new "Oryon" processor with "Phoenix" cores, which was developed by former Apple chip makers. Recently, the Galaxy Book 4 Edge with this chip successfully passed a performance test in the Geekbench benchmark.
Qualcomm said that the new top processor in various performance versions will be able to compete with Apple's M series chips, which could narrow the performance gap between Windows and macOS-based devices. Therefore, Qualcomm has been able to attract almost all PC ecosystems including Samsung, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Acer, ASUS and others.
According to initial reports from retailers, the Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge will feature a 14-inch display. In addition, the laptop will be offered with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, with the RAM likely to be non-expandable. Exact details are still unknown and it's also unclear if versions with lesser RAM and permanent memory are planned.
How Much Does It Cost?
The price of the Galaxy Book 4 Edge is likely to be around €1,800. So this is definitely a premium offering for which Samsung, like the other models in the Galaxy Book 4 Pro and Ultra series, will demand a decent payment. Compared to the Intel-based laptops in the Galaxy Book 4 series, the Galaxy Book Edge has one advantage: it should last longer on battery life. Also likely to be attractive is the presence of an inbuilt 5G modem, although this is yet to be confirmed, despite Qualcomm usually equipping its new top-end chip with 5G support. Compared to Apple's latest MacBook Air, which in a version with a 13.6-inch display and identical memory configuration costs 1,759 euros in Germany, Samsung's new laptop has no price advantage.
The presentation of the new Galaxy Book 4 Edge is probably not expected until June at the earliest.
