Sales volume increased 1.5 times compared to the same period last year

Samsung Electronics announced on the 17th that domestic sales of the 'Notebook 9' series surpassed 10,000 units within ten days of the Academy event that began on the 6th. This translates to an average of about 1,000 units sold per day, and sales volume increased by more than 1.5 times compared to the same period last year.

Samsung Electronics’ flagship premium notebook lineup, the ‘Notebook 9’ series, was launched on the 6th with two models of the 2016 large-screen, ultra-light premium notebook ‘Notebook 9’ and the ‘Notebook 9 Lite’ in four of the latest trend colors.

The '900X5L' laptop, featuring a large 15-inch screen and 6.2mm ultra-slim bezels, is equipped with Samsung's proprietary 'Quick Charge' technology, allowing for up to 3.7 hours of use with just 20 minutes of charging (based on MobileMark), and takes less than 90 minutes to fully charge.

The ultra-lightweight laptop '900X3L' weighs 840g, the lightest in its class, reducing the weight by 230g compared to the 2015 model with the same specifications. It is characterized by achieving an innovative weight of less than 900g while enhancing durability with a strong yet lightweight metal material.

In addition, it features an auto-backlit keyboard that automatically adjusts the backlight by detecting ambient light, further enhancing user convenience and the aesthetic perfection of the product. Released in four trendy colors—Frost White, Imperial Black, Pearl Pink, and Jade Blue—the 'Notebook 9 Lite' boasts a sophisticated design featuring a metallic look, a recent trend.

Samsung Electronics stated that it is very encouraging to have surpassed 10,000 units in sales within 10 days of the start of the event due to the positive initial response to the 2016 'Notebook 9' series, and analyzed that the popularity is due to the fact that it meets all requirements for excellent performance, slim design, and ultra-lightweight, while also possessing robust durability.

Meanwhile, Samsung Electronics is offering various free gifts, such as Hancom Office Neo, a Bluetooth mouse, and an Intel software starter pack, to customers who purchase the 'Notebook 9' series through the 'Samsung Electronics S Academy' event, which runs until March 31.
