The Galaxy Book S is designed to be a laptop that feels like a mobile device. Thanks to its little weight and size, the Book S can be carried around easily and used more comfortably than traditional PCs. For example, the Book S feels more comfortable to use during train rides, lectures, taxi commutes, and in other situations where the user’s mobility is constrained.
The Book S features Microsoft OneDrive cloud storage, making it easy for users to back up and access their files across several devices. On the whole, the Galaxy Book S looks like the perfect work laptop. It’ll retail for $1,000 when it becomes available this September.
