## Summary

Samsung aims to disrupt the enterprise laptop market with the Galaxy Book 6 Enterprise Edition, featuring Intel vPro technology for uncompromising performance, security, and manageability. The video highlights its robust hardware, clean software, and powerful remote management capabilities that extend beyond IT to family tech support.

### Key Points

- **Samsung's Enterprise Ambition** [0:00] — Samsung wants to break into the corporate PC laptop market dominated by three major brands, offering the Galaxy Book 6 Enterprise Edition with Intel vPro for no-compromise performance, security, and manageability.
- **Physical Overview and Connectivity** [1:08] — The laptop features a subtle color change, generous dongle-free ports including full-sized gigabit Ethernet, HDMI 1.4, dual Thunderbolt 4, USB-A ports, audio jack, and micro SD reader.
- **Dual M.2 Storage Slots** [1:56] — Two user-accessible M.2 PCIe Gen 4x4 slots support drives up to 1 TB each; the secondary slot ships empty for easy upgrades. RAM is not user-replaceable.
- **Samsung Knox Security** [4:18] — Samsung's embedded security chip, Knox, aids corporate security and fleet management. The enterprise models promise a clean OS with minimal bloatware.
- **Clean OS and Samsung Settings** [5:10] — The start menu shows only Samsung Settings as a preloaded app. The settings app consolidates all controls (display, keyboard backlight, battery protection, auto-boot) without requiring an account.
- **Galaxy Connected Experience** [6:40] — Seamless second screen functionality with Galaxy tablets works wirelessly without extra apps, demonstrating Samsung's ecosystem integration.
- **Intel vPro Remote Management** [8:14] — vPro Fleet Services allows total control over enrolled PCs even with a broken OS. Demonstrated via a CrowdStrike outage example where vPro-enabled airlines recovered in one day vs. a week.
- **vPro Fleet Services Demo** [9:15] — Remote management works without subscriptions, enabling BIOS-level control, key combinations, and secure remote access. Samsung adds extras like remote secure erase and one-click recovery (coming soon).

## Transcript

If I asked you to name the three brands
that IT departments go to when shopping
for corporate PC laptops, I bet just
about anyone watching this video could
do it. But Samsung wants to change that.
The goal of the Galaxy Book 6 Enterprise
Edition with Intel Vro technology is no
compromises on performance, security,
design, manageability, or character
count. And they sponsored this video
where we're going to be showing it off.
Now, I could be lazy and say, "Well,
they took everything that was great
about their consumer line of Galaxy
Books, added some enterprisegrade
refinements, and just sent it." But some
of these enterprisegrade refinements
merit additional discussion and can
actually be useful outside of the
enterprise as well. Intel's Vro remote
management is easier than ever and now
works without any infrastructure
commitment, making it actually a great
solution for the family IT guy. We're
going to take a look at that and a
closer look at the Galaxy Book 6
Enterprise Edition.
Now,
let's start with a physical overview.
The Enterprise Edition gets a subtle
color change, kind of like the
difference between gray with an A and
gray with an E. hard to notice, but what
I do notice is the generous dongle-free
connectivity on both sides of the unit.
The VPro platform models, like the ones
that I've got here, get full-sized
gigabit Ethernet, one of those cute
little folding hinged ones, HDMI 1.4 and
dual Thunderbolt 4 on the left side with
a pair of 5 GB USBA ports, a universal
audio jack, and a cheeky little micro SD
reader right there over on the right.
The IT department is surely going to
love not having to give out a bunch of
easy to lose adapters. Now, before I
even boot this up, there is one more
connector that I want to show you guys
using my precision screwdriver kit in
the exclusive float plane colorway,
ltstore.com.
All right, let's pop these feet off.
It's not my preference to have screws
hidden under feet. Do I just pry them
off?
>> They'll pop off easy. Oh, okay. Oh, so
they do. Oh, cool. They're not adhesive.
You know what? All is forgiven, Samsung.
Good job. And I can just get them off
with my fingers. I I have not actually
seen that before. All right. All right,
Samsung. I mean, framework investment
disclosure.
>> Yeah. Why am I having so much trouble?
There it goes.
There we go. Connector, or should I say
connectors?
Because Samsung has included two user
accessible M.2 slots for storage. Both
of them are PCIe Gen 4x4 and support
drives up to 1 TB with our sample unit
having a 512 gig NVME in the primary
80mm slot. Oh, how awkward would it be
if it was not Samsung? It is Samsung.
Okayoo, that's cool. And the secondary
30 mm slot ships empty, which is great
for a quick upgrade. Now, they say they
support up to 1 TB, but I actually see
no real reason why you couldn't put a
bigger one in in the future, but that's
just not what it's certified for. As for
RAM, unfortunately, that is not user
replaceable or upgradeable. It's not
really a surprise in 2026. It's just one
of those things where you might want to
make sure that you proactively whine at
it about how much RAM you're going to
need in the future because you won't be
adding any after the fact. Since we're
in here, there are a few different
configurations available, all with
series 3 Intel Core Ultra processors. I
like the 14inch model with the Core
Ultra 5 355 or the Ultra 7 365 because
the Vro platform brings benefits beyond
just the better hardware specs. There
are nonVRO options in both 14 and 16in
if you just can't live without your
number pad, but you're going to be
giving up Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and
Thunderbolt 4 along with, of course,
Vro. Now, let's get this thing back
together and fire it up. It actually
kind of makes sense that the clips are
so robust if they only have the four
screws. Yeah.
>> Still, I would have preferred. They just
have more screw holes in the bottom.
>> You didn't put the screws in.
>> Oh, balls. You know what? I'm not going
to be the last person to make that
mistake.
>> Oh, there's different size feet, by the
way.
>> The tall ones are at the back.
>> Yeah.
>> Got it. That makes sense, actually. Just
like photographs.
>> And they actually kind of fight you if
you put them in the wrong spot. So,
>> it it's actually quite quite good. Um,
it did not allow me to put the wrong one
in the wrong place. I should get a
Samsung NOX screen here. There it is.
Nox is Samsung's embedded security chip.
I'll be the first to admit I don't have
a ton of hands-on experience with it,
but basically it's meant to help with
corporate security and fleet management.
We're going to stick a link down below
if you want to learn more about Samsung
Knox. What I do have experience with is
bloated laptop software, and Samsung
claims I won't see any of that on these
enterprise models. They even go as far
as to call it a clean OS. So, let's have
a look at what that looks like in
practice. Nothing unexpected in the
system tray. Yep. I mean, one clue is
there. Microsoft's going to Microsoft,
right? Teams again, Microsoft color
engine. The display profile that
actually I I like to see this Dolby
stuff is part of Windows. Intel drivers,
OBS, again, we put on there, realtech
audio drivers, Samsung settings, and
that is basically it. As for the start
menu, the only thing that looks a miss
here is Samsung settings, but we were
actually pretty impressed by this. Um,
you don't need to make an account or
click through a license or do any
nonsense. And kind of everything you
need is in here. Connections,
connected devices, sound, notifications.
Oh, okay. Interesting. It just pops up
the Windows notification settings.
>> That's the only one that does it. The
rest of them are all controlled in the
app though
>> huh? Okay. You can play around with the
color temperature of your display,
adjust your HDR. I can adjust the
timeout on my keyboard backlight. That's
actually really nice. Sometimes when I'm
like sitting and thinking, you know, I'm
on a flight or something like that. I
don't want it to be like constantly
turning off and like flashing on and off
at me while I'm while I'm working. Set
it to like 3 minutes or 5 minutes. Auto
boot.
Start up when lit open. They they don't
mean sleep. They mean boot.
>> Boots. Yeah. Oh, that's pretty cool.
Have you seen that before?
>> Not that I'm aware of.
>> That's That's pretty cool. Lock camera
on and off. Not a physical cover. I
really like this. This is a really
important feature. Battery protection.
Uh I generally like to set it at around
80% if I don't really need all of the
battery life that my device has to
offer. Uh it really helps maintain the
longevity of your battery. It's funny.
Samsung did what Microsoft took 15 years
to do. When did Windows 8 come out
again? They went and they consolidated
all your settings in one place and with
basically one interface. Coming back up
to connected devices, this is something
that Samsung's calling their Galaxy
connected experience. So you can do
things, for example, like set up a
second screen if you have a Galaxy
tablet. Get second screen app. They
could have preloaded that. Credit to
Samsung, they didn't. I tip my cap to
you. Well, it's not really a cap, but
really is very clean. All we have is the
Samsung settings app. That honestly
seems fine and pretty light. Skip
signin. I can just not always appreciate
that option. Even if I might normally
sign in. Searching for nearby tablets.
Your Tab 11 Ultra. Oh, okay. Is
connected to your Galaxy S26. What are
the odds this just works? Do I need to
have a second screen app on here, you
think? Oh, second screen.
>> Let's go, boys.
Very cool. Once you know how to do it,
that easy and no wires. Samsung is also
streamlining the work of the IT
department, offering Galaxy Book
configuration services, which basically
preconfigures the systems from the
factory with things like custom OS
imaging, BIOS settings, custom BIOS
logos, and even asset tagging. None of
that's like crazy, but those little time
savers add up to a big time savings when
you're preparing a hundred or even
thousands of machines for deployment.
Once you're deployed, though, you still
need to support your users, whether
that's the art department down the hall
or your dear old granny who keeps the
recipes to her award-winning quadruple
chocolate brownies on her laptop so she
won't forget it. And that is where the
Intel Vro platform is a total game
changer. If you're in it, you probably
already know all about Vro. In fact, you
might be using it to manage a system
right now. But bear with me here as I
give just one example of what it can do
for everyone else. Just a couple summers
back, a security platform called Crowd
Strike had a little oopsie that caused
millions and millions of computers to
blue screen. Now, it turns out that
Crowd Strike was quite popular with many
of the big companies that fly airplanes
all over the place. These are called
airlines. One of those airlines had to
cancel more than 7,000 airline trips,
and it took them almost a week to fix
their computers the oldfashioned way,
and it cost them millions of gold coins.
But other smarter airlines were using
Intel V Pro and got computers back up
and running in just one day, and they
hardly had to cancel any trips at all.
Now, why don't we listen quietly and let
Mr. Lionus show us all how it works?
Let's take a look at how VRO Fleet
Services gives us total control over our
enrolled PCs, even if the OS is
hopelessly broken and blue screening all
over the place. And the coolest part is
it's built into every VPro platform
device for free. VPro Fleet.intel.com.
All right, we've got both of these set
up. This is going to be our management
device, and this is going to be
Grandma's computer with her brownie
recipe. Let's see if Lionus can figure
this out without ever having used VRO
before. All right, continue to log in or
sign up. Oh, I need to use yours. Oh,
look at that. Jordan block. Second
Jordan block. Thank you for that, Intel.
Nice. From here, all I got to do is go
to my endpoint groups. And then I'm just
going to grab this pairing token file,
which let's pop this in here. Now, we
just run the fleet installer. Hey, there
we go. There it is. Desktop
00
I5 A71. What a name.
>> That's what I call my grandma.
>> Dear sweet.
>> You can rename it there if you choose
to.
>> I already did.
>> All right,
>> there it is. And now all we got to do is
click here to manage it. And what's
super cool about this is no matter what
kind of state the machine is in, in
fact, we can see exactly what state it's
in. It's powered on. Siri connected, no
matter what state it's in, we can do
anything we need to do, whether that's
in the OS or even getting direct remote
control of the BIOS. So, if your user
just
screws something up, you know what's
funny is my grandparents called me
today. They were having issues with
their TV. Ivonne had to go all the way
down there because I was at work. She
had the day off. A book had fallen off a
shelf and was sitting in front of the IR
receiver. Like that's that's just the
kind of stuff that you know happens. And
the more that you are set up to remote
manage, the less you have to go and deal
with it in person, which is not to say
that you should never, you know, visit
your grandparents. You should. It's just
to say that, you know, make it about the
visit. Don't make it about fixing their
computer. That's pretty cool. Look at
that. Key combinations and everything.
So this is it. This is built right in.
There's no subscriptions or changing
software terms. Team viewer, excuse me.
I had something unethical got in my
throat. Just easy remote access. Thanks
for the recipe, Grandma. It's worth
noting that aside from just connecting
remotely, there are certain things that
if I try to do them on the user's
computer, it's going to pop up a code as
well. And just like before, it won't be
captured by any kind of screen
recording. The exact functions available
can actually be customized by the
manufacturer, by the way. And Samsung is
actually going to be the first to give
us a couple of nice extras like remote
secure erase and remote one-click
recovery. Now, obviously for a platform
like this, security is kind of like all
three of the top three priorities. So,
those features are still being
thoroughly tested, but are expected to
release soon TM. If these sturdy Galaxy
Book 6 Enterprise Edition machines seem
like a good fit for your business or for
your family, guys, check out the links
in the video description. Thanks Samsung
for sponsoring this video. This is
actually pretty fun opportunity to get
to take a look at uh Intel Vro. I
haven't played around with it in a very
long time and it has matured a lot. Very
cool. If you like this video, I don't
know, something else Samsung, maybe
check out our S26 video over on our
short circuit channel.
