Samsung is taking pre-orders on its Ativ Book 9 Lite

Samsung announced this morning that it is taking pre-orders on its Ativ Book 9 Lite notebook PC, which was first announced on June 20. One of the most interesting features of the new notebook is the custom AMD CPU, which Samsung is describing as a “white-label” quad core. “It’s something we wanted that was outside [AMD’s] roadmap,” Samsung PC Product manager David Ng told me in a briefing on Friday. Asked why Samsung chose to partner with AMD for this custom CPU, Ng replied “A huge part of it was the superior integrated GPU in AMD’s parts.” SamsungThe Ativ Book 9 Lite will be available in two colors: "Marble white" or "ash black." Be that as it may, Samsung tapped Intel’s new Haswell chips to power its flagship notebook—the Ativ Book 9—which made waves last month when Samsung revealed it would come equipped with a 3200 by 1800-pixel, 13.3-inch touchscreen. The Ativ Book 9 Lite will also have a 13.3-inch touchscreen, but this one delivers a more down-to-earth resolution of 1366 by 768 pixels. And while Samsung has not announced pricing or availability of its flagship notebook, the Lite model is selling for a reasonable $800 and is expected to reach customers beginning July 28.
