Samsung Series 9
The MacBook Air led to Intel's Ultrabook, right? Well, before the Ultrabook, there was the Samsung Series 9 notebook, which was launched in 2011.

The dark chassis is composed of duralumin, which Samsung says is twice as durable as aluminum and is the same material used by an "advanced aircraft." Advanced, indeed.
