Samsung Galaxy Book with Windows 10, S Pen support launched at MWC 2017: Specifications and features


At the MWC 2017 event in Barcelona, Samsung unveiled two new tablets – the Galaxy Tab S3 powered by Android and the Galaxy Book powered by Windows 10. Just like the Galaxy Tab S3, the Galaxy Book also supports S Pen stylus input and a keyboard accessory that connects using the pogo pin port on the left edge. The tablet will directly compete with Microsoft’s Surface Pro 4.

The Galaxy Book comes with a ‘Samsung Flow’ feature which lets you use your Galaxy smartphone’s fingerprint sensor for unlocking the tablet. With the feature, you can use your Galaxy Book to reply to text messages and take phone calls that you receive on your smartphone. The S Pen stylus supports Samsung’s Air Command features, which is a nice addition. S Pen can also be used for taking quick notes, sketching and more. The S Pen and Keyboard are included inside the box, which is a good thing as you don’t need to spend more to buy these accessories.
