Samsung’s Galaxy Book4 Pro hasn’t been on the laptop scene long, and currently the company is obviously preparing the next model of this popular portable, which will bring among Intel’s next-gen Lunar Lake CPUs according to a fresh leakage.
The Galaxy Book5 Pro (design ‘Samsung NT940XGK-DSD’) was found in the SiSoftware criteria database by routine leaker @momomo_us on X (previously Twitter).

The existing Galaxy Book4 Pro made the leap to among Intel’s brand-new Meteor Lake chips when it got here early in 2024, however the Book5 Pro is moving up once again, this time to a Lunar Lake processor as pointed out– most likely when the laptop computer is launched early in 2025. (That is, obviously, pure uncertainty, however it makes good sense for that to be the timeframe).
The leakage reveals an 8-core Lunar Lake chip with 4 efficiency cores and 4 performance cores (and clock speeds of approximately 2.8 GHz, however we would not pay much attention to that, as this is still early screening and the CPU will not be near its last speeds yet). Xe2 incorporated graphics are on board here, too.
Analysis: Shooting for the low-power moon
As low-power silicon, Lunar Lake will sit below the Meteor Lake variety for Intel. These Lunar Lake processors are created to significant in effectiveness and provide reasonably alert efficiency in thin-and-light note pads such as the Galaxy Book Pro. They’ll provide a lot of grunt for their low power use, along with Xe2 which is next-gen Battlemage graphics, to boot.
Battery life must be really strong, too, if the reports are right, and there’s a good deal of pledge with these next-gen laptop computer CPUs from Intel. All of this might make Samsung’s MacBook-like laptop computer even more powerful when it debuts likely early next year, as discussed– and the Galaxy Book4 Pro currently made it to make an area on our finest laptop computers list as it is.
This leakage is coming quite early, really, which recommends that Lunar Lake is on track for a launch late in 2024, however as the grapevine has actually formerly recommended, it likely will not be around in significant amounts on the racks till 2025 rolls into town. We may even see the Galaxy Book5 Pro late this year, possibly, offered this leakage appearing now, early doors– however adhering to an annual cadence for brand-new designs appears the most likely method from Samsung (as it has actually formerly done).

These chips will likely be the very first getaway for 2nd-gen Arc GPUs, with desktop Battlemage graphics cards potentially having moved in their possible release timeframe to Q1 and even Q2 of 2025 passing the most recent chatter.
