Samsung has launched the Series 9 UltraBook in India for Rs 1,02,990. The announcement comes only days after the company showcased the very same product running the release preview of Windows 8 at the IFA conference in Berlin. While, the product has been available abroad for sometime, Samsung is only now announcing the product in India.

The Series 9 UltraBook comes loaded with a number of features. It sports a 13.3-inch display with a resolution of 1600×900 pixels and its brightness is rated at 400 nits. Samsung claims it to be the world’s thinnest notebook measuring only 12.9mm and weighing only 1.16kg. It is powered by an ultra-low voltage version of Intel’s i7 Ivy-Bridge CPU clocked at 1.9GHz. Along with this it also packs in 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a 256GB SSD, Intel HD Graphics 400, and a 1.3-megapixel web camera. The version of the product launched in India runs Windows 7, however it is readily upgradable to Windows 8, when it becomes available on October 26.

As far as ports are concerned it has a micro-HDMI, VGA, one USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 along with a memory card reader. It also packs in a 6-cell battery that has a rated life of 9 hours, but the Samsung executives intimated to us that one should be looking at around 6.5 hours of life in real world usage.

Besides, its Series 9 UltraBook, Samsung has also launched the Series 5 550P notebook that is powered by a quad-core Intel Ivy Bridge i7 processor, a full HD display (17-inch model only), a 2GB Nvidia GeForce GT 650M graphics card, a blu-ray drive and a 2TB hard drive. The notebook is offered in 15-inch and 17-inch models. It starts at Rs 62,990.

Another product that comes to India is the Series 3 notebook, which is a decidedly low-end product. However, even the Series 3 notebooks are powered with Intel’s third generation Ivy Bridge i7 processors and have a rated battery life of 7 hours of battery life. This product starts at Rs 48, 490.
