The
next big
thing coming to
Samsung’s laptops: Pleather?
Samsung may use the same kind of faux leather design — or "pleather" — seen on the
Galaxy **te 3 smartphone and
Galaxy **te 10.1 (2014 edition) tablet in future
**tebook models, according to a person that reportedly attended a Samsung S Academy event and posted details about it on
Korean site Seeko. The new Ativ Book 9 family will reportedly run ******* 8.1 and feature four 2W speakers for improved sound, as well as a leather-like case complete with a stitching effect along the edges. A supposedly leaked image shows an Ativ Book 9 Style laptop that has a white faux leather lid. In addition to the unreleased Ativ Book 9 models that could be unveiled at
next month's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the company will apparently stick with plastic in future mobile designs as well. Despite rumors that the company
may soon use metal in its upcoming Galaxy S5 flagship device, recent reports have suggested
that the company may stick with plastic for the device.
