Matt, here in Brazil, the Galaxy Book 3 series had a lot of issues with the AMOLED screens cracking out of nowhere with ordinary, day to day use, and Samsung refused to replace them unless you had bought the additional accidental damage warranty extension. I wanted to switch to a 2-in-1 but it’s been tough since so many issues with Samsung’s past model.
I think this problem was mainly in the book 3 series. I bought the 3 360 and it cracked on me too out of nowhere. Luckily I got a refund as I bought it from Amazon. Anyways I replaced that laptop with the 2 pro 360, and so far is great. I believe Samsung would've fixed the problem on the book 4 series now.
You can do this in the full review, I just want to know the battery life compared to other macbook 16" and the pugetbench score on premiere pro compared to other macbooks 👍
@@omarcortes5754 You'd be surprised man. M3 pro is almost the same as the M1 pro at premiere pro and M2 beats both. The intel core ultras get pretty fast and with dedicated gpus, now tbh I'd go for at least a 4060 and an ultra 9, but more info is never too bad.
Former Apple guy here. MacBooks are useless for running non-ARM virtual machines. Pretty much useless for any Cybersecurity student. Plus MacOS is boring and limited. Can't really game and is locked down tight. Plus Apple is scummy and is getting sued for anti-competition practices, which they will lose.
Hi. What's the battery life like? And, are there any thermal issues with the Ultra 7 chips and GPU in that slim form factor (under heavy stress loads)?
@@tizen_os not really check out lenovo loq series i got around 5-6 hours of youtube and modarate tasking. Also i have m2 macbook anyways it has 10-15 hours of battery life
It is better but I would wait up until the next series of the new Intel chips to come out for better battery life. This is their first gen that they focus on stuff like that seriously
Is it better than hp envy 360 that I just bought? I'm not very satisfied with it because sometimes my keyboard typing gets stuck I mean curser freezes for a sec and then moves on.
Serious question what's currently the best ultra book most likely snapdragon has the best adaptive refresh rate monitor. I dont know why but I'm addicted to knowing which monitor pannel has the best adaptive refresh rate to save on battery. And yes I know this is just one of the many factors to battery life but I just enjoying knowing what panel i'm using
How bad is the OLED burn-in with constant menubar of work programms, adressbar of browser and windows taskbar? I guess it'd show after years of use. But it would be sad for a laptop this expensive if the screen is bad after 4 years when other top-tier laptops last for 10+ years
How? I have the 4070 ver and it's fine. I get 60fps playing Jedi Fallen Order at maxed out ultra settings and it's very smooth. Needed to adjust your Nvidia settings in the Nvidia app and increase the Max Frame rate from auto to something like 300fps. Also will say you'll want to be plugged in. This thing loses a lot of performance unplugged.
Thanks sir finally. The only issue I have with the laptops is that why does Samsung refuse to leave 1TB alone. Everytime it always maxes out at 1TB and it really annoying. Ik there's the option of SD Card but come on how can I trust it after I lost all my important information due to SD card damage. So heck no that's a turn off fm when it comes to Galaxy PCs
It's so annoying My laptop from 2012 had 1TB. Laptops now should have 1 TB minimum going up to 4TB With all the high resolution pictures and videos that are now being generated
@SHISUI1185 if you don't mind Stuttering. Buy it and test it out for your self I promise you'll be returning it. 4070 GPU only pulls 70w. Buy it for anything else but gaming.
Battery life, since 3 series is so bad. The weight distribution compared to 3 series, since it have a very heavy screen, the hinge is struggling to hold in place when moving around with the laptop. The bottom cover where the speakers are, is the cover the same as 3 series when you can hear plastic noises when you push from sides where speakers are... Definitely not a macbook killer, just a parody of it)
@@MB-yw7up 4050 variant lasts for 11hrs saw quite a lot of them reviews lately... Pretty sure 4070 one would perform good too. The only downside so far is Samsung's absurd pricing.
I have the galaxybook2pro 360 and it's terrible for that price I paid. Screen is bending, when you are writing on it and it's constantly overheating. That's also the reason why the powerful CPU throttles every time and refuse to use max TDP. Batterylife is also terrible
Not even a month later, the new Book4 Edge series dropped with the new Snapdragon X Elite 👌 Pre-ordered mine. So happy to break free from Intel and their shenanigans.
I wish they brought back their S logo that resembles a galaxy like on the old phones
The one that was a simple S? Pretty good one
@@Riky4646 yeah that one was simple but amazing
Samsung logo is much more premium feeling

Hi. Could you please detail the build quality? especially hinge and screen wobble?
How's the battery life and heat temperature?
Hi. What's the battery life like? And, are there any thermal issues with the Ultra 7 chips and GPU in that slim form factor (under heavy stress loads)?
It's better but I would wait one more year for the next new intel series If you're looking at battery life
I just cannot accept the fact that here in Canada, we cannot get a non-bilingual (French/English) keyboard on a Samsung laptop.
I know I hate it
Oh just switch to English. Canard... 😂
@woofinu it's those damn keys, and you can't get the English keyboard on the Samsung laptop. That's why I always go Dell.
16GB Ram for that price is criminal
It has Rtx 4050, and a nice processor, and 16gb ram isn't that bad
@@Atulya_Chaudharyyou can find gaming laptops with 4050 better processor 16 gb ram around 1000 dollars

Would appreciate a detailed battery life review
How is the battery life compared the Hp specter x360 16 ❤
How does the quality of the display compare to that of the macbook pro 16"?
Does it come with any different color ?
Does the screen have burning like the ones in oled? Any typr of freesync or something?
Is it good for Editor and Designer's?
How much it can bend ?
Price ??😊
Battery life?
It is better but I would wait up until the next series of the new Intel chips to come out for better battery life. This is their first gen that they focus on stuff like that seriously
Can you justify the price in the review? Tht update from lasf year is hilarious compared to those extra 700$
What graphics card can you get in it?
How do you use it?
Will this thing explode is we play games on it?
I'm interested about cooling system too
Had the 4070gpu returned it after 2 days . Do not buy for gaming .
Does it have haptic track pad and if its not haptic is it as good as haptic track pad? And are the speakers improved? These are my questions on book 4
It's not haptic, but really nice. No wobble and assembled nicely.
Is it good for students?
No 16gb isn't good 👍🏿
Is it fingerprint proof
What's the difference between the pro the ultra and the edge?
What about the Snapdragon X Elite? Do you plan a comparison video?
Do yiu think the ultra is worst it or justg regular book is fine for day to day work doing email / excel stuff like that
Get the Ultra
Is it better than hp envy 360 that I just bought? I'm not very satisfied with it because sometimes my keyboard typing gets stuck I mean curser freezes for a sec and then moves on.
Is the track pad In the way?
Is the build quality ACTUALLY good? the last time i checked out a galaxy book in a store, it felt plasticky and not solid.
It’s aluminum
price
How bright is the OLED display? I get MacBooks are MiniLED but atleast they have 600 nits SDR brightness and over 1000 in HDR
Get like 400-500 sdr
Can I use an adapter for internet? I just bought one and didn't realize. I don't have wifi
can i upgrade ram or ssd like other windows laptops?
Is os is win 11 pro?

Your title asks if it’s the MacBook killer, or more so M2 chip killer, so is it using Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Elite, the next-generation Arm chip?

Not the one people are actually going to be excited for, rn a lot of the hype is for the Snapdragon version
Sadly that one is locked to 14 inch and 16GB RAM.

Exactly, you get it 🔥. And they should have it with the option to turn off the 4070-80 when you dint need it for battery purposes

Please evaluate the anti-glare property of the screen. It is glossy but is it less reflective than screens of other brands? Thanks.

The bezels can’t see pass through it 😭
Does it have bilingual keyboard compared to the previous unit😂😂😂Also don't forget xps 16 review
I cant stand the mouse pad. Its more close to a square and it looks so weird being (highly) of centered
Wish it had AMD
I'm unable to write "@"
Sound was not good only one speaker
Can't you buy for me
Dang that's so nice
SURELY not an MAC killer
NEW MS SURFACE maybe batter than MAC but this aint one

It's too expensive. What's Samsung thinking.
