Samsung announced two new versions of the Notebook 9 Pen - a 13-inch and a 15-inch model - that it will show off at CES in January and release sometime in 2019. Regardless of how you feel about the blue-and-gold color scheme on this year's Note 9 smartphone, Samsung clearly likes it because the company brought it over to the Notebook 9 Pen. The new device has that navy blue over most of its chassis, and its edges remain the only parts where silver pokes through.
The Notebook's hinges allow it to flex into all the positions characteristic of a convertible, and it still comes with an S Pen (now gold) that lives in a holster in its chassis. The placement of the holster hasn't changed, but the device's slightly redesigned edges may make fishing the stylus out easier.
The keyboard features a new row of keys on the right side with Page Up and Down buttons. At the very bottom of that column is the fingerprint sensor, its position shifted to be to the right of the arrow keys rather than on top of them. This should be a less awkward placement as the reader on the current model was hard to press without inadvertently pressing an arrow key or two.
