Slim, lightweight, and versatile, the Samsung 15" Laptop 9 Ext works as a traditional laptop, but can also recline to 180° so you can share your view.
The 15" display has a 1920 x 1080 resolution so you can watch Full HD videos natively. It also has a normal brightness of 350 nits, but can go up to 450 nits when outdoors to reduce glare. The screen is powered by a dedicated NVIDIA GeForce 940MX graphics card with 2GB of DDR3L VRAM.
The system is powered by a 7th Gen Intel Core i7-7500U dual-core processor. It also has 16GB of onboard 2133 MHz DDDR4 RAM, a 256GB NVMe PCIe SSD, a microSD card slot, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.1, HDMI, Thunderbolt 3, USB Type-A, a backlit keyboard, and a fingerprint reader. Windows 10 Home is the installed operating system.
Samsung Laptop 9 Ext
7th-Gen Intel Core i7 Dual-Core Performance
The Laptop 9 Ext houses a 7th-Gen Intel Core i7-7500U processor. Its dual cores can reach a base speed of 2.7 GHz. It can also be boosted to 3.5 GHz, thanks to Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology. The processor also supports Intel Hyper-Threading technology so you'll be able to multitask more efficiently.
NVIDIA GeForce 940MX Graphics
Equipped with a dedicated graphics card, the Laptop 9 Ext can handle gaming better than devices with standard integrated graphics. This means you'll be able to enable additional graphical options and crank up in-game settings so you can enjoy games in greater detail.
15" Full HD Display
The 15" display features a Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution and a normal brightness of 350 nits. However, the screen can bump up to 450 nits when outdoors to combat sunlight glare.
Thunderbolt 3
Thunderbolt 3 is a hardware interface that utilizes the reversible USB Type-C connector. Doubling the speed of its predecessor, Thunderbolt 3 features a maximum throughput of 40 Gb/s when used with compatible devices. The connector also transmits data via USB 3.1 at up to 10 Gb/s, and dual-bandwidth DisplayPort 1.2 allows you to connect up to two 4K displays simultaneously. Additionally, you can daisy chain up to six devices from a single Thunderbolt 3 port.
180° Hinge
With the ability to lay flat at 180°, the Laptop 9 Ext allows you to share what's on your display with other people without them crowding behind you.
Windows Hello
Logging in is more secure and convenient through Windows Hello from Microsoft. Thanks to a fingerprint sensor, you're the only one who can log into your laptop-all it takes is a touch.
Windows 10 Home
Start Menu
After its hiatus in Windows 8, the Start Menu has returned. Utilizing a combination of the traditional menu system and Windows 8's Live Tiles, the improved Start Menu gives you more information at a glance, showing notification information alongside your applications and other pinned items.
Cortana
Microsoft's digital personal assistant, Cortana, can answer your questions with information gleaned from both your device and the Internet at large. You can type or even talk with her, if your system has a microphone. Using her Laptop, Cortana keeps track of your needs and wants, and she learns over time to improve her information-gathering skills.
Microsoft Edge
After nearly 20 years, Microsoft has finally replaced its Internet Explorer web browser. With Microsoft Edge, users can write directly on web pages and share notes with friends and colleagues. It also improves the online reading experience by adding a distraction-free mode and read-it-later functionality. Edge also has built-in Cortana integration; you can have her help you find a restaurant, make a reservation, and pull up directions without leaving your browser.
Windows Store
For Windows 10, Microsoft has unified the Windows Store. Now, apps for PCs, tablets, and phones will all be accessible from one place. And with support for Universal Apps, one version of an app can work across all your compatible devices automatically.
Windows Continuum
Windows 10 was designed for a variety of screen sizes and input styles, and with its Continuum feature, it automatically adapts to fit your needs. A Windows 10 tablet on its own requires a touch-centric approach, but attaching a mouse and keyboard will shift everything to a more traditional interface. You can even attach an external monitor to your Windows 10 phone for a near-desktop experience. But it's not just the operating system; Windows Universal Apps take advantage of Continuum as well.
Xbox on Windows 10
Gaming is a big focus of Windows 10. Xbox integration allows for PC players to match up against Xbox One players on supported games, and if you have an Xbox One, you can even stream compatible titles to your PC. Native support for recording with the new Game DVR feature makes it easy to capture and share your gameplay. The new DirectX12 takes better advantage of multi-core processors, giving games a performance boost, even on older hardware. Windows 10 also features native support for virtual reality headsets, such as the Oculus Rift.
