Samsung has finally released its base Galaxy Book 6 in the US while also delivering a price hike across the entire lineup.
The Galaxy Book 6 series, Samsung’s lineup of Windows laptops, was first announced earlier this year with pricing that was supposed to start at $1,049. The company launched the Galaxy Book 6 Pro and Ultra in March, and has now added the base model to the mix.
