Samsung Electronics has taken the wraps off its next-generation laptop portfolio, the Galaxy Book6 series, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2026 in Las Vegas. The tech giant introduced three new models: the flagship Galaxy Book6 Ultra, the Galaxy Book6 Pro, and the standard Galaxy Book6, marking a significant leap in performance and artificial intelligence integration for consumer PCs.
Power and Performance Redefined
During the unveiling, Won-Joon Choi, the President, COO and head of the R&D office for Samsung's Mobile eXperience (MX) Business, emphasized the company's focus on core fundamentals. "Performance defines the PC experience," stated Choi. He explained that the new series combines top-tier speed and power with reliable AI to meet the high productivity and creativity demands of modern users.
A cornerstone of this performance claim is the processor. The Samsung Galaxy Book6 series has the distinction of being the first consumer PC lineup worldwide to incorporate Intel's Core Ultra Series 3 processors. These chips are built on Intel's advanced 18A process node. Key performance upgrades highlighted by Samsung include:
- A CPU with up to 16 performance and efficiency cores, delivering a substantial 60% boost in CPU performance compared to earlier generations.
- Integrated Neural Processing Units (NPUs) specifically designed to handle AI tasks efficiently, enabling smarter multitasking.
- An improved cooling system for better thermal management, ensuring sustained performance.
- Optimizations aimed at extending battery life for all-day usage without constant charging.
Galaxy AI and Ecosystem Integration
Beyond raw power, Samsung is betting big on intelligent features. The Galaxy Book6 series comes packed with Galaxy AI capabilities designed to streamline the user experience. These AI features promise to enhance productivity through smarter multitasking tools and improved search functions.
For creative professionals, the laptops offer AI-assisted workflows to simplify content creation. Furthermore, the new notebooks are built for seamless connectivity within the Samsung ecosystem. They integrate effortlessly with Samsung smartphones and tablets, allowing users to create a unified and productive digital workspace across all their Galaxy devices.
Availability and Market Rollout
Samsung has confirmed the market availability for its new laptop family. The Galaxy Book6 Ultra, Galaxy Book6 Pro, and the standard Galaxy Book6 will go on sale in select global markets starting from late January 2026. The company noted that pricing will vary depending on the region and specific model configuration. Indian consumers and tech enthusiasts can expect more localized details, including exact launch dates and rupee pricing, to be announced closer to the release window.
The launch at CES 2026 sets the stage for a competitive year in the premium laptop segment, with Samsung positioning the Galaxy Book6 series as a powerhouse device for professionals, creators, and power users who rely on both performance and intelligent automation.
