Samsung has shared details for the Galaxy Book4 Pro 14-inch, the smallest member of its new Galaxy Book4 trio. Available from next month in South Korea, the Galaxy Book4 Pro 14-inch will ship with Intel Core Ultra 5 and Core Ultra 7 processors, plus LPDDR5X RAM and a 120 Hz AMOLED display.

Samsung has previewed a new alternative to the MacBook Pro 14, following Apple's autumn Apple M3 series refresh. For reference, Samsung's new 14-inch 'Pro' laptop is one of three Galaxy Book4 Pro models. However, the others each have 16-inch displays, details of which we have covered separately.

As for the Galaxy Book4 Pro 14-inch, Samsung plans to offer it with a choice between Intel Core Ultra 5 and Core Ultra 7 processors. Like the Galaxy Book4 Ultra, Samsung has elected to forego providing specific processor details for now. By contrast, ASUS has confirmed the processor options for its new Zenbook 14 OLED.

According to Samsung, the Galaxy Book4 Pro 14-inch will be available with up to 32 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 1 TB of PCIe storage. Conversely, the company limits the laptop to a single 16:10 AMOLED display that outputs at 2,880 x 1,800 pixels with a 48~120 Hz variable refresh rate and 400 nits peak brightness. Likewise, Samsung equips the Galaxy Book4 Pro 14-inch with a 63 Wh battery, 9.6 Wh and 14% smaller than the 72.6 Wh battery in the MacBook Pro 14.

The Galaxy Book4 Pro 14-inch will be available in Platinum Silver and Moonstone Grey colour options. Although Samsung has announced its 14-inch laptop today, it has not provided full availability details yet. Instead, the company has outlined that the Galaxy Book4 Pro 14-inch will launch next month in South Korea and 'progressively' in 'select markets' thereafter. Please see Samsung's website for more details.
