Portabke computers will never disappears because people need something that they can bring so they can do their work and other perosnal things anywhere. While big companies are coming out of various portable computers, a not-so-big company will not be left behind as it comes out with not one, but two powerful portable computer called the Samsung Series 5 Ultra.

The second on the Samsung Series 5 Ultra is the 13-inch model that weighs at 1.4kg amd has a thickness of 14.9mm. Unlike the 14-inch model though, it doesn’t have a an optical disk drive and the option of Radeon HD 7550M GPU.

Both the 13 and 14-inch models will have its Korean release by late December, while there is still no announcement on their international release yet.
