Samsung's first AI laptop will be released before the first AI smartphone On December 15, Intel will release Core Ultra processors for mobile computers, and on the same day Samsung will introduce a new line of its laptops - Galaxy Book 4. The devices will be presented as AI laptops. [caption id="attachment_85361" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Galaxy Book 4[/caption] It is known that Samsung has registered the name “AI smartphone”; according to rumors, the Galaxy S24 will be presented as such. But the Galaxy S24 will debut, according to preliminary data, on January 17, 2024, which means that the first AI laptop from Samsung will be released a month earlier than the AI ​​smartphone. Galaxy Book 4 will premiere on December 15 Core Ultra will have a neural processor to accelerate AI tasks, and it will be on its basis that Samsung's proprietary Gauss language model will work (all calculations will be performed by the device itself, no “clouds”). [caption id="attachment_85362" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Galaxy Book 4[/caption] It is reported that LG Electronics and HP are also preparing to release AI laptops based on Core Ultra, but it is not a fact that they will also be presented on December 15. The Galaxy Book line will include five models: Galaxy Book 4, Galaxy Book 4 360, Galaxy Book 4 360 Pro, Galaxy Book 4 Pro and Galaxy Book 4 Ultra. The specifications will apparently be the same as the Galaxy Book 3. The only difference is that instead of the 13th generation Intel Core there will be first generation Intel Core Ultra processors. The Galaxy Book 4 Ultra will have an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 dGPU.

There are two modifications Laptops based on Intel Core Ultra processors will indeed be relatively affordable. Previously, we saw the first price leaks, but now Acer models have appeared in stores.  [caption id="attachment_85297" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Acer Swift 14[/caption] Acer Swift 14 with Intel Meteor Lake processors appeared on the Internet In particular, the version of Swift 14 with Core Ultra 5 125H is priced at 1000 euros. This cannot be called a cheap laptop, but the specified processor will not be the weakest in the line. It will offer four large and eight small cores with a TDP of 28 W.  The same laptop, but with a Core Ultra 7 155H, will cost 1,250 euros, but it will have twice the memory and twice the SSD.  Moreover, we are talking about a laptop with an OLED screen with a resolution of 2880 x 1800 pixels, which makes the price of 1000 euros much more interesting. Therefore, it is quite possible to expect simpler laptops with lower Meteor Lake CPUs with a price significantly lower than 1000 euros.

[caption id="attachment_83846" align="aligncenter" width="780"] MacBook laptops[/caption] MacBook laptops will get Apple's own 5G modems, but you'll have to wait five years Apple laptops will also receive its own modems, but such PCs will have to wait even longer than smartphones. It is expected that the new products will be released in 2028, and given the difficulties that Apple faced in developing its modem, it is not a fact that the deadlines will not be shifted. Interestingly, the 5G modem in the case of the MacBook will allegedly be integrated into the Apple M SoC, which will make the latter even more complex. Initially, MacBook Pro models will receive the modem, probably as an option, and after that this option will appear on younger models as well.

With a large inch sensor, it would not be possible to use the latest variable aperture lens After the premiere of Xiaomi 14 Pro, many people had a question: why the company’s new flagship did not receive the inch Sony IMX989 image sensor, which the Xiaomi 13 Pro has? After all, it is known that the larger the sensor, the more light it captures and the better the pictures are, especially in low-light conditions. However, as it turns out, Xiaomi had a good reason. [caption id="attachment_77889" align="alignnone" width="780"] Xiaomi 14 Pro[/caption] Not a downgrade, but an upgrade. The fact is that with an inch sensor, it would not be possible to use the latest lens with a variable aperture F/1.42-4.0 and its stepless change (Xiaomi talks about 1024 levels, but for a mobile device with so many of them we can talk about almost complete smoothness of change in hole diameter). Therefore, the Light Hunter 900 1/1.31-inch optical format sensor was developed specifically for the smartphone line, which, in conjunction with a new high-aperture lens, ensures light capture at the level of an inch sensor. But at the same time, a very high dynamic range is provided (13.5 exposure stops), and the user, thanks to the new lens, has the opportunity to adjust blur and exposure. In general, Xiaomi regards replacing an inch sensor with a smaller Light Hunter 900 as an upgrade, not a downgrade.

Another obvious advantage of HyperOS over MIUI The new flagships Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro feature UltraSpace technology, which provides users with more space to store files (such as photos and videos). So, in devices with 256 GB of flash memory, 264 GB are available, and in the version with 512 GB, 528 GB are available. [caption id="attachment_77829" align="alignnone" width="780"] Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro[/caption] The unique UltraSpace feature in Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro gives users more space to store files How is this implemented? Each flash memory chip has an area reserved for Over-Provisioning features to improve memory speed and reliability. Over-provisioning performs Garbage Collection, Wear Leveling, and Bad Block Re-Mapping. For Over-Provisioning, 10 GB is reserved in the memory chip, so the actual volume of such a chip, with the declared 256 GB, is 266 GB. Xiaomi engineers have found a way to use the space allocated for Over-Provisioning without compromising the reliability or speed of the drive. It is important to note that UltraSpace is only available in smartphones with HyperOS, but, as you know, many of the current devices with MIUI will receive HyperOS next year. Then, in theory, UltraSpace will become available in these models as well.

It is interesting due to its combination of characteristics and price Sales of the Woo!! laptop has started in China. King Lingyun X15, attracts attention with its combination of characteristics and price. This model, alas, does not have a discrete GPU, otherwise, it would be a full-fledged gaming model, but the price would be higher. And so for Lingyun X15, they ask for only 470 dollars. [caption id="attachment_64097" align="aligncenter" width="699"] King Lingyun X15[/caption] The device is built on a single-chip Ryzen 7 7735HS system with a fairly powerful integrated GPU Radeon 680M. That is, the laptop allows you to play games, but not all of them (and not at maximum settings). Besides the powerful processor, Woo!! King Lingyun X15 received a very high-quality IPS display with a diagonal of 15.6 inches, a resolution of 2.5K, and a frame rate of 165 Hz. RAM capacity - 16 GB, SSD - 512 GB (SO-DIMM and M.2 slots - two each). Sales of the inexpensive Woo!! laptop has started in China. King Lingyun X15 [caption id="attachment_64098" align="alignnone" width="780"] King Lingyun X15[/caption] A system of two fans and two heat pipes is responsible for cooling. The battery capacity was 50.5 Wh. Woo!! King Lingyun X15 is made in an all-metal case, equipped with two USB-C ports and an HDMI 2.0 video output.
