Tech giant Samsung took the stage this afternoon to show off a host of new products during its Unpacked 2019 presentation and live stream. After showing off its new Note 10 smartphone and announcing a partnership with Microsoft, the Korean company took the wraps off its new hybrid laptop, known as the Galaxy Book S. It will hit shelves this September and pricing starts at $999.

Featuring a sleek, smooth construction that manages to be thinner than many of the world’s most expensive ultrabooks, the Galaxy Book S makes use of the newest 7nm technology from chipmaker Qualcomm. Qualcomm will be providing the combination CPU/modem chip that lies at the heart of the Galaxy Book S. Samsung promises that it will allow for fast performance, modern connectivity, and industry-leading battery life. The Galaxy Book S will offer 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD for storage.
