Microsoft revealed the creation of the "Copilot+ PCs" class of personal computers. These are AI-focused devices that can perform more than 40 TOPS, allowing them to manage numerous jobs locally in addition to cloud services.

The Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge, one of the original Copilot+ PCs, is the reason we're telling you all of this. This relates to the company's ongoing Galaxy AI initiatives. And this is also among the first laptops to run the Snapdragon X Elite processor!

There are two sizes available: the 14" size weighs 1.16 kg (2.56 lbs) and has a thickness of 10.9 mm (0.43"). The 16" size weighs 1.55 kg (3.42 lbs) and has a thickness of 12.3 mm (0.48"). Both have pretty comparable battery capacities—55.9Wh and 61.8Wh, respectively—and both guarantee an all-day runtime.

The displays are 16:10 AMOLED panels with anti-reflective coating, brightness of 500 nits, and resolution of 2,880 x 1,800 pixels. Rich color rendering with 120% DCI-P3 coverage, variable frame rate up to 120Hz, and 10-point multi-touch capabilities are all features of these.

Despite having the Snapdragon X Elite as their processor, the two variants are not always equivalent. The X1E-80-100 chip is the default choice for the 14" and 16", while the 16" has the option to select the X1E-84-100 chip. As usual, catchy and educational model names.

In summary, the 80 chip can operate at 3.4GHz when all CPU cores are engaged and can reach 4.0GHz when only two cores are used. A GPU with Adreno can compute at 3.8 TFLOPS. Top of the line, the 84 chip has a maximum frequency of 3.8GHz for all cores and a boost of 4.2GHz for two cores. The Elite models all have 10 CPU cores, 42MB of total cache, the same RAM speed, and the same NPU performance at 45 TOPS (qualifying them for Copilot+). The GPU can also reach 4.6 TFLOPS.

The Galaxy Book 4 Edge has either 512GB or 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM, which is most likely soldered. It combines Samsung and Galaxy AI technologies and comes pre-installed with Windows 11.

Let's take a brief minute to discuss them. With Recall, you may easily discover a document, email, or webpage by telling the computer what you need to find. It is a search option for those who are easily distracted. One of the Galaxy AI and Copilot+ models that operates locally without transferring data to the cloud is this one. Nevertheless, you are in complete control of the information they have saved on your device and are able to filter, modify, and remove it.

There are other AI functions that you might have utilized on your Galaxy S phone. The computer can convert them into English and do live captioning. You may also use Live Translate and Chat Assist to improve your writing and overcome language hurdles. It's very simple to copy and paste Circle to Search results from your phone to the PC.

All of the AI features are instantly accessible thanks to a newly designed button. We didn't even cover them all; there are amusing camera filters, generative AI based on your writing and sketching, and more.

Now, let's return to the hardware. The battery capacities have already been discussed; a 65W USB-C converter handles charging. A headphone/microphone combo jack, an HDMI 4.1 (4K @ 60Hz) port, and two fast USB 4.0 ports are also present. A USB 3.2 port can also be installed in the 16" laptop.

Wi-Fi 7 (be) handles wireless communication; however, it should be noted that only 6E is available in South Korea (apparently a legislative issue rather than a hardware one).

Aluminum, glass, and polymers, including recyclable materials, make up the laptop's body. There is currently only one colorway available: sapphire blue. Video playback for up to 22 hours is promised by the battery.

On June 18, the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge (14" and 16") will go on sale. The AI-enabled laptop is headed to South Korea, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. The price is still pending confirmation.
