CES 2019 saw Samsung unveil this year's Notebook 9 Pro laptop, its latest premium convertible laptop. The Notebook 9 Pro blends a premium metallic build with Intel's latest 8th Gen processor for superior performance and comes bundled with the Active Pen for the added dash of versatility for professionals like graphic designers. The Notebook 9 Pro is expected to hit the shelves in 'early 2019', however, details about its pricing are yet to be revealed by the company.

The new Samsung Notebook 9 Pro laptop comes equipped with a 13.3-inch display with slim bezels and support for fast charging and also features a fingerprint sensor embedded into the side-mounted power button. The device packs a 13.3-inch FullHD display which has a peak brightness output of 350 nits and is surrounded by thin bezels which measure just 6.7mm. To recall, the first such laptop under the Notebook 9 Pro name complete with a stylus was launched back at Computex 2017, though a Notebook 9 Pro model without stylus has been around for longer.
