Last week, a leaked roadmap revealed Samsung's planned product rollout over the next few months Our main focus was the Galaxy S21 FE scheduled for August, but there is also an interesting PC Unpacked event planned for next month
And now Evan Blass, known as the leaker who published the original roadmap, has provided us with information on two products scheduled to debut next month, the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro and Pro 360 These systems look very sleek and powerful and could steal attention away from the upcoming MacBook Pro 14-inch
As the naming convention suggests, the difference between the two appears to be in form factor rather than internal specifications Whereas the Galaxy Book Pro is the follow-up to the Galaxy Book Ion and is a straight laptop, the Pro 360 has a 360-degree hinge that allows the screen to be flipped to make it a Windows-based tablet In other words, it appears to be similar to the Galaxy Book Flex in design
From the limited specs, the internal DNA seems to be largely shared Both come in 13" and 15" sizes, are powered by 11th generation Intel processors, and offer a choice of built-in graphics or discrete ones such as Nvidia's MX450 GPU
Both screens are said to be Full HD AMOLED panels with support for Samsung's S Pen, and the devices are said to support Thunderbolt 4 and include optional LTE connectivity (The regular Pro model is said to be available in blue and silver, and the Pro 360 in navy and gold
Although not mentioned by Blass here, when the Galaxy Book Pro was first shared on Twitter by WalkingCat last month, the leaker also revealed a third laptop: the Galaxy Book Go
It promises "the fastest Qualcomm processor in GBook history," as we can see from the embed above, as we get a top-of-the-line model with an 8cx processor, 8GB RAM, and 256GB of UFS SSD storage 7c processor, 4GB RAM, 128GB UFS SSD are also planned for the entry-level model
WalkingCat writes that both the Galaxy Book Pro and Go will "arrive in May" This is slightly later than the roadmap shared by Blass Also, while the devices will be announced on April 14, there is a good chance they will not be available for purchase until the following month
Apple is expected to hold an Apple Event in April, where it will unveil the new iPad Pro 2021, AirTags, and possibly the new iMac 2021 with Apple Silicon, but the new MacBook Pro 14-inch and MacBook Pro 16-inch 2021 may appear later
In any case, it won't be long until details such as pricing, availability, and whether Samsung will have a Chrome OS-based device to accompany these Windows machines
