The pre-orders for Wi-Fi models of both 12in and 10.6in Galaxy Book will begin on 21 April via Samsung website and select retailers including Best Buy. The 12in Galaxy Book with Wi-Fi connectivity costs $1,129.99, whereas the 10.6in model at $629.99. The Wi-Fi models will go on sale from 21 May.

With the Samsung Flow feature, users can connect their Galaxy smartphones with the Galaxy Book wirelessly to transfer data and sync documents between the two devices. When they are connected, users can read and respond to messages and notifications received on their phones via the Galaxy Book.

The Galaxy Book's battery supports fast charging and offers up to 10 and half hours of video playback, although tests are yet to be done qualifying Samsung's claim.
