Q: Difference in processors??

A: There isn't an i6 processor but assuming you mean the i5 i'll put an explanation below. the intel core series consists of three different brands of processors the i3, i5, & i7. The higher the number the better the processor in a given category of computer, for example an i7 processor with a model number ending in U is for an ultrabook or thin and light machine this i7 processor is not the same as one in a desktop or desktop replacement laptop which will end in K & HQ respectively. the easiest way to comprehend this is to compare it to BMW's cars. There is a 3 series, 5 series, & 7 series. now think of the letters U, HQ, and K as engine sizes U= four cylinder engine HQ= six cylinder and K=8 cylinder so and Intel core i3 in an ultrabook would be like the basic 3series with a four cylinder engine, an i7 in the same computer would be like throwing a turbocharger on that same engine. i hope this long winded explanation helps

Q: Have the heat issues been addressed yet?

A: I have my plugged in performance settings up as high and as fast as they can go. In the past two weeks the fan has come on once while trying to watch a movie. It does not seem to be an issue with mine.

Q: Only TWO Speakers?

A: There are four speakers the other two are beneath the keyboard deck facing upwards using the keyboard as a speaker grille

Q: Swap out SSD?

A: I believe this system uses M.2 / MSATA for its SSD so a standard laptop sized 2.5in drive would not work however you can swap the other out. M.2 is used because of it's small size and drastic max speed advantage to regular SATA III. M.2 is also very expensive and only a couple of companies make them best actually being samsung. Because of this high price and the need to take apart the laptop to access it I personally would suggest either a portable SSD if speed is needed, Samsung makes a very good one thats very. If max speed is not required and you dont want to carry additional accessories; a high capacity class 10 SD card can slip right into the side of the computer and is cleverly hidden on the slope of the aluminum underbody. I've seen 256gb class 10 SD cards for as low as $80, just shop around and you can find some great deals.

Q: Can the touchscreen function be turned off?

A: Yes, the touchscreen function can be turned off.

Q: what is the max RAM capacity? and what is the charge

A: The ram is not changable, the way the ram goes on this labtop they basically glue it to the motherboard, making it not possible to swap out the ram.

Q: Will there be a version of the Samsung Ativ Book 9 Pro with 16GB RAM and a non-touch display?

A: I highly doubt you will see this computer without a touchscreen as the glass panel in modern high end unibody laptops actually support the structure of the display assembly. this is why you usually only see non touch aluminum laptops at smaller sizes like samsung's own 12.2 in book 9. because the glass is required to make the display more ridged simply removing the touch function and not the glass actually results in no functional additions (Matte display for outdoor viewing) and would only be removing a feature which differentiates this from its Apple counterpart. As for the storage i would suggest an external SSD or an SD card, RAM I would assume on a laptop of this size wouldn't be soldered on but i cant confirm this to be the case.
