It posed a serious competition with the earlier version of the Microsoft Surface device. As Samsung equips its mobile device with the LTE connection, which is not available in Microsoft Surface Pro 4.

Furthermore, Samsung Galaxy Book is equipped with Samsung's advanced display technology, Super AMOLED with FHD resolution. While in term of the processor, Galaxy Book is powered with the latest processor from Intel, the seventh generation Core i5 processor, code name Kaby Lake. Microsoft will also use the same processor for Microsoft Surface Pro 5, according to CNET.
