Samsung Galaxy Book S with Snapdragon 8cx now available for $999

After a lengthy wait, the Samsung Galaxy Book S is now available. You can order the laptop directly from Samsung, and it’s also listed on the Microsoft Store for $999.

The Samsung Galaxy Book S is one of the first laptops to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8cx chip (the Surface Pro X uses a variant customized by Microsoft). Like other ARM-based PCs, Samsung claims the Galaxy Book S can achieve extremely long battery life, with estimates coming in at 23 hours. The Snapdragon 8cx has also been built specifically for PCs, with performance estimates putting it on par with an Intel Core i5 processor.

If you already preordered the Galaxy Book S, it should ship out starting today. Currently, the Verizon variant is the only one immediately available to order, but Sprint customers should be able to order starting February 14. The laptop is also listed on the Microsoft Store, but it is “out of stock” as of this writing. We expect that to change soon.
