If you think that the new Macbook Air was the highest mark at which laptops could get to in terms of being fast and thin, think again. It was at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas that Samsung announced its new ultra-thin Series 9 laptops, and now, we’ve got the pictures and specs to share with you.

 

Samsung Series 9 notebook sure looks amazing. Regardless of the fact that Samsung Series 9 is faster and thinner, don’t expect it to be cheaper than the Macbook Air. The cheapest Samsung Series 9 touts an Intel 1.4GHz Core i5-2537M processor, 4GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD is priced at $1649, which happens to be $50 more expensive than the top-of-the-line Macbook Air. A bit too much for a Windows notebook, no?

 

 

In April, Samsung will be shipping another iteration of the Series 9 line which is going to be an 11.1-inch ultrathin laptop powered by an Intel Core i3-380UM processor, 2GB of RAM, and a 64GB SSD. The price has not yet been revealed.

Does the Samsung Series 9 prove to be a strong competitor for the Macbook Air? Although, the fact remains that Mac lovers would obviously go for the Macbook Air, come what may, because there is a big difference between Windows and Mac OS X experience which usually serves as a judgement defining factor when buying notebooks.
