Samsung India unveiled two Series 5 and a Series 3 Ultrabook yesterday, in addition to their flagship Series 9 Ultrabook.
The big news yesterday was the release of the second generation Series 9 Ultrabook by Samsung India, but there were three other Ultrabooks that were on display as well – the 15.6-inch Series 5 550P, the 14-inch Series 5 530U and the 15.6-inch Series 3 350V.

The difference between the 550P and the 530U goes beyond the screen-sizes. The 530U sports the i5 3317U whereas the 550P has the i5 3210M. There is an obvious resolution difference because of the different screen sizes, which also contributes to the difference in weight (1.81kg to 2.5kg).
