Samsung refreshes 13-inch Series 9 laptop, adds two more 11-inchers models

It's only been three months since we drooled over the thin, powerful, expertly built — and expensive! — Samsung Series 9. Of course, that's dog years in the world of consumer electronics — the company has just refreshed its premium 13-incher, adding a Core i7 processor option, a 256GB SSD (up from 128GB), and 6GB of RAM to the highest-end model. While Samsung was at it, it pulled an Apple, expanding its line of MacBook Air competitors to include an 11-inch model, which starts with a Core i3 processor, 64GB SSD, and 2GB of RAM. All told, you'll find two 11-inchers and three 13-inch models, ranging in price from $1,049 to $2,049, leaving the initial one three months ago $300 cheaper.
