The major tech companies are now focusing on more and more lightweight and mini-laptops. Apple’s iPad with Pencil support launched around a week ago with its student-friendly features and now, it is Samsung.
Samsung has always been in the front row when it comes to the global electronics market. but, we cannot say so in the case of laptops. They are in the market but not as popular as their smartphones or other electronic equipment.
Maybe Samsung now wants to take hold of this area as well. The laptops are launched under its Notebook series. It unveiled the Notebook 5 and Notebook 3 with the total of three laptops. One under the Notebook 5 version and 2 under the Notebook 3.
The Notebook 5 model comes with a 15.6-inch screen whereas the Notebook 3 models come with 15.6-inch and 14-inch screens respectively.
When it comes to the processors, these laptops serve us with quite a variety: 8th generation quad-core Intel processor and 7th generation dual-core Intel processor. The choice is all ours.
The 14-inch Notebook 3 comes with the 720p display with integrated graphics. The 15.6-inch Notebook 3 comes with 720p and 1080p display variants with integrated and Nvidia MX110 graphic variants. Whereas the Notebook 5 comes with the 1080p display and NVidia MX150 graphics.
On the battery front, all of these have a 43WH one which gives an average battery life. The 14-inch Notebook 3 weighs 1.63kgs whereas the 15.6-inch models weigh around 2kgs.

The VP of PC business team said,
“ When developing the Notebook 5 and Notebook 3, we wanted a device that balanced style with powerful functionality. These devices designed for everyday use and premium computing experiences are the result of our on-going commitment to carefully listening to our customers and their needs.”
While the premium computing experience can be experienced once the laptops are out for the world to use, everything other than that is true to the statement.
The laptops are portable well-made and sleek. The best part is that the laptops are said to be mid-ranged, unlike the Notebook 9 pro.
The laptops will be available in Korea later this month and in the second quarter globally.
