    From what I've read, it seems that the ATIV Book 9 is the replacement for the Series 9 which comes in a 15" version, but I can't seem to find a 15" version of the ATIV Book 9 anywhere. Does it exist?

    I'm looking for a 15" ultrabook and was leaning towards a Series 9 (or possibly a ZenBook), but then I heard the ATIV Book 9 is a newer version of the Series 9.

    Recent versions of the Series 9 have been sold as the Book 9. Here's an example. [I think the key indication is a 'K' in the model sub-code eg NP900X4C- K02DE.]

    The hardware is the same as the Series 9 with the addition of the Samsung SideSync software (and logo on the palmrest) and a higher price tag relative to the Series 9.

    However, as you will see from the other thread on this subject, there is currently no news about a refresh of this model.

    New 15" ativ book 9 has three different things then 15" series 9 .
    It has i5-3337 ,painted edges and whats most interesting it has only one ventilation hole (rear).
    What you think,i would really like to know will this notebook now be even hotter or they menage to find and set up something for lower temps.Is 3337 cooler then 3317?
    It would be great if there is owner of new 15" ativ book so it can tell us about experience.
