History

[edit]

First Generation

[edit]

The first Book9 was introduced as Series9 at January 6, 2011 at the Consumer Electronics Show(CES) on and won the Best of CES award in Laptop category.[1] It featured world's first enclosure that is made out of aerospace grade duralumin[2] with 16.3 mm (0.64 in) thickness and 1.31 kg (2.89 lb) in weight. The first model had Sandy Bridge Intel Core i5 processor, 128GB[note 2] solid-state drive(SSD) and a 13.3" HD (1366 x 768) display with 300 nit of brightness.



On May 4, 2011, Samsung Electronics also introduced 11.6" display version of the Series9 in Korea market. It had same design identity as the 13.3" model except the display size of 11.6" and CPU of Intel Core i3-380UM. The thickness remained the same but the weight was reduced to 1.06 kg (2.34 lb). An updated version with CPU of Intel Core i5-2537M was introduced two months later but due to low demand of the market, the 11.6" display-size version was discontinued by the end of the year.


Second Generation

[edit]

The second generation of Series9 was announced to the public at the CE Show show on January 8, 2012.[3] The new model had same display size of 13.3" but the resolution was stepped up from HD (1366 x 768) to HD+ (1600 x 900) and the brightness was increased from 300 nit to 400 nit. Design was refined and the material of the enclosure was changed from duralumin to an aluminium single-shell body. Subsequently, the weight was reduced from 1.31 kg (2.89 lb) to 1.13 kg (2.49 lb) and the thickness was reduced from 16.3 mm (0.64 in) to 12.9 mm (0.51 in). The user was offered a choice of 128GB SSD as well as larger 256GB SSD for the storage. It was introduced with Sandy Bridge Intel Core i5 processor at the CE Show but 3 months later, it was upgraded to the Ivy Bridge Intel Core i5 processor before the hitting the market. Magnesium enclosure version with exact same design was also released on August 2012. Although the second generation Series9 didn't win the Best of CE Show award as its predecessor had, it was the final contender in the laptop category.[4]


On March 2012, the 15.0" display version of the Series9 was announced to the market with HD+ resolution display. It had same specification as its 13.3" counterpart but introduced to the market with Ivy Bridge Intel Core i5 processor from the beginning. The Magnesium enclosure version was also introduced on July 2012.

Third Generation

[edit]

At the beginning of 2013, Samsung Electronics changed the marketing name of all of its computer line up to ATIV and consequently, Series9 became ATIV Book9. Between March and April 2013, all the models with 13.3" displays were upgraded from HD+ to FHD (1920 x 1080).


On June 20, 2013, during the "Samsung Premiere 2013: Galaxy & ATIV"[5] event at London, ATIV Book9 Plus and ATIV Book9 Lite was introduced to public. Book9 Plus featured Haswell Intel Core i5 processor and 13.3" QHD+ (3200 x 1800) resolution display with touchscreen panel. Although it was equipped with QHD+ display, initial advertisement showed it as having FHD resolution display due to lack of QHD+ support of Windows 8.0. This issue has been resolved with Windows 8.1 and all Book9 Plus models currently have an option to choose QHD+ resolution once the Windows 8.1 is installed even though the previous advertisement showed FHD in its specification.



Book9 Lite has plastic enclosure but it still retains the "Thin & Light" design identity of Book9 family. It is equipped with AMD quad-core A6-1450 APU with Radeon HD8250 GPU and HD resolution display.



On January 7, 2014, Samsung Electronics announced the new ATIV Book9 2014 Edition at the CE Show 2014. The screen size was increased from 15.0" to 15.6" from the previous 15 inch Book9 and the resolution was upgraded from HD to FHD as well. It was announced as the world's first laptop PC to have native lossless audio up to 24bit/192kHz, such as FLAC and ALAC, playback feature.


Later in the same month, Book9 Style, another 15 inch Book9 was introduced to the Korean market. It had similar design and specification as Book9 2014 Edition, except having plastic enclosure and lack of lossless sound playback feature. However, it was equipped with more powerful speakers with 4W of output each. Also the exterior has leather-like finish with faux stitch design on the top of the computer.

Design

[edit]

The main design philosophy of ATIV Book9 is "Thin & Light" and the design motive came from bent sheet of a paper to hint its thin and lightness.[6] In order to make the product durable while maintaining the light weight, aerospace grade duralumin was chosen for enclosure. The design philosophy and the motive remained the same during the second and third iteration of the design but the material was changed to aluminium due to better manufacturability and easiness of putting fine details. Later, magnesium version was also added to offer even lighter system.

Initially, the line up included 11-inch screen-size model and 13-inch screen-size model but the 11-inch version was dropped by the end of 2011 due to the low popularity in Korean market. Instead, 15-inch model superseded 11-inch one in early 2012. The screen size was slightly increased from 15.0 inch to 15.6 inch in 2014 but the thickness remained the same at 14.9 mm (0.59 in).

The first plastic enclosure version with 13-inch screen, Book9 Lite, was added to the line up in 2013. It had similar design identity with other models in the line up, it was configured to have low cost CPU with plastic exterior in order to meet the demand from those who preferred the sleek design of Book9 yet conscious about budget. The 15-inch version of the Book 9 Lite was released to the market on 2014 with the marketing name of "Book 9 Style", however, this model had same configuration as Book 9 2014 Edition in terms performance.
