Samsung showed on the IFA a few prototype notebooks, including models of its Series 9-ultrabook with an extra touch screen on the back of the screen. Also, there was a 13.3″laptop with a resolution of 2560×1440.
There’s already been rumors that Apple will have a MacBook Pro Retina 13″ with a resolution of 2560×1600 would like to bring. Samsung showed on the IFA show that it is in any case already in a position to also a 13.3″laptop with a similar resolution to fabricate. The Korean company showed its Series 9-ultraportable with a 13.3″screen with a resolution of 2560×1440. The ‘hd ready’resolution of 1280×720 is so in both directions is doubled and the IFA was to see that pixels with the naked eye then no longer to be distinguished. Concrete plans for the device on the market, Samsung has not and if that happens it will be only in 2013.
In addition, demonstrated Samsung a version of its Series 9 with 2560×1440 screen and a touch-screen on the back of the screen. The images are mirrored: the control of the screen on the back, has an effect on the image on the front, although the usefulness of this is limited it seems. Biggest advantage of course is that the Series 9 in fold-closed mode, as the tablet is in. These notebooks were more of a designstudy and the chance that Samsung is they release them is small.
Finally, Samsung had some prototypes of hybrid notebooktablets behind glass, which showed to what options the company thought in the development of laptops with touchscreens for Windows 8. There were, among others, a slider, a swivel, and a laptop where the touchscreen from the side in a handle inserted had to be to see.
