Either Samsung improves their laptop design to compete with others(higher resolution, cooling), or the other companies improve their pen tech(switch to EMR, or improve existing tech). The only reason I like this laptop is the EMR tech doesn't have diagonal line jitter. There are so many good options to choose from, but pen performance from Samsung is hard to beat. At least Microsoft is making the attempt. Thank you for the review, I like that you show the internals of the laptops.
Nailed it. The pen is the only reason I am agonizing over this purchase. If not for the pen, this would be an easily rejected option. But trying to draw slow, delicate lines on Lenovo's laptops was a nightmare of frustration. Maybe the newer Yoga's are better, but the options from last year were terrible. It's either this or Microsoft for me.
@Aaron Martin-Colby I am opting for an note taking device .. I went from s8+ too ultra (for better deal including the keyboard case) s8+ gets the slim cover I don't like that. I want to use it for in bed ..what would you recommend.. ultra or windows laptop ..main thing will be note taking
I have the 13.3 inch version, had it now for several months. Never really had any heating issues, also my geekbench scores were much better than yours(1,571 single-core; 6,663 multi-core).
Burn-In: For those who wonder if Oled laptops get burn-in issues, I can share my experience with you. I have owned 4 different oled laptops for work including 3 XPS 15 and a Gigabyte aero 15, and 2 of them are 4 years old already. I have seen zero burn-in on the screens. As we know it is the brightness/energy output/heat to cause burn-in. Since OLED tvs are so much brighter than laptop screens as manufactures have to set the display to so bright to fight glare. On the other hand, most laptops have a oled display can only reach 250-350 nits, so each pixel can never reach its full capacity like those pixels on the tvs even if you have the screen on full brightness all the time. Therefore, the pixels on a tv need to work 80% to 100% of their max capacity most of the time while the pixels on a oled laptop only work 30-40% when the display is set to 100% brightness most of the time. I am not saying you will never seen burn-in on a laptop screen, but most likely will take many years. I am no expert, but this is what I think. Hope that helps
Are you sure about your information? I want to buy a Galaxy Book 4, but I am very afraid that the battery will burn. The price of the device is very expensive
I like the color and the display. Definitely think the 15-inch version is best because of capability and extra DRAM and larger/better performance SSD is the way to go. It would be an option for me but I have settled on having the 16:10 format. Thanks for the great review.
As I said in the "First Looks" review this is just an okay PC. This review confirms that opinion. Camera and microphones are good. Display is good. At least they counted then number of USB-C ports correctly. You have two available ports when plugged in. Agree a USB-A port would be nice. Agree that the 15 in. model would be the way to go if you are considering purchasing the Samsung unit. Be aware that on the 15 in model the numpad is not designed well. There is no large "Enter" key to the right of the numbers like that of a typical calculator. The numpad on the 15 in model is not practical for fast numeric input. Speakers might sound good but listening to them on your video does not do them justice. Same for the other Lenovo laptop you compared it to. Overall this is still a little pricey for what you get. Still and excellent review.
Nice review! Wifey loving her 15" version. I thought she should keep the 9i instead but seeing her with her new burgundy is fulfilling. She loves the cam and is really impressed with the streaming and sound. 16:9 is perfect for movies and that screen really pulls it off well. Samsung gave her a generous first responder discount, a $100 loyalty discount and $250 for an old S8...I got a 32" mediocre gaming monitor for free.....what's not to like?
Hi, you also got the 9i but your wife prefer the Book2 Pro, am i correct ? I am surprised, i thought the Lenovo was a tad better but maybe not the Best bang for the bucks. What made up her mind...only the bigger screen for movies?
@@JoeGillian0 With my wife you can't argue with "it's adorable". I looked for their specs regarding adorable and could not prove to her the 9i was more adorable...lol
@@JoeGillian0 Are you saying the 9i is better than the Galaxy Book 2 pro 360? I'm torn between the 2 and I'm going to buy one either tonight or tomorrow. I'm prob going with this one and not the 9i because of the no micro sd card thing
I love the glorious camera display at 1080p as well as the built-in 🎤 quality. I also like the background customization you get with the webcam. If I was buying this laptop, it would be the 15" with the maximum RAM and storage capacity I can get. I'm a fan of Super AMOLED after using their phones for years. Brilliant review Andrew!! 👍😁
great review. due to the lower performance, it seems the book2 360 13 inch is redundant to just using the Tab S8 plus as a main computing device. you can almost do everything and more!
I recently obtained a Book 2 pro 5G 15" variant, it doesn't have the folding screen and lacks the internal capacity to do anything that requires installing/running high capacity software. The second downside to my variant, is the permanently soldered RAM and small non-replaceable 256gb SSD, half taken up with windows 11 OS bloatware out of the box. The upside is Samsung kept the headphone socket and included a micro SSD port, with a single mini HDMI socket and two USB c-types. Battery life is amazing with the screen brightness turned down and using the recommended energy saving settings. Would I upgrade to the 360 or better? No, I'm happy with mine, because I paid £500 new on a deal and I'm not a performance hungry gamer.
Nice review thanke you, i can aggree your thoughts. One constructive appeal to make your good reviews more better. Maybe you will stop for example 5 secounds to speak while the fan-noise-test, so people can judge the noise also subjective. The decibell are just of the whole audible frequency spectrum and today the small notebooks with the fans lead to produce more noise in higher frequency spectrum. It's a pitty, that the 13 inch model just gets a little bit higher in multicore than typical the older Tiger Lakes. Maybe students etc. should choose the 15 inch if the do a little bit more like image editing etc. and if there is no more powerfull PC at home. It's great that Samsung has fixed some criticized things, thanks to reviewers like you! Thx! What do you think with the Asus Rog Flow X13 compared to the Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 360? There is a X13-model without an GPU, just with the Ryzen 6800HS and the price is similar. It has a little bit a gamerdesign, but for some people it's acceptable. It seems to me that the Asus made a really nice all-day and all-purpose convertible with 13 inch. The ryzen is much more efficient in idle and with low load. The multicore-performance is better, the 680M is more powerfull. It's not an amoled, but 100% RGB, 500 nits, 120 Hz and 16:10. Also it has HDMI and USB-A included. There is no Thunderbold 4, but Asus annoucend that one USB-C port will get later upgraded to USB 4.0, so it then Thunderbolt 3 with 40 Gbits.
Hello. Good time In general (for design and heavy work), which one do you choose: samsung galaxy book2 pro 360 or msi summit e16 flip ?????? If you have any other offer besides these two laptops, tell me .... Please guide me carefully ....
i think the Book2 360 non pro 13 inch is a better choice. 0.25 lbs heavier, more ports, better cooling and efficient U chip 12th gen and probably better geekbench 5 due to better cooling.
in terms of gaming, can it handle say, 1080p@60 or even 4k@60 (when connected to an external display)... if so, it will suffice for me.... so long as I can do some casual gaming without the laptop sounding like it'll explode in a few minutes
Hello, Thanks a lot; I really appreciate your effort to make this video, but is it possible for you to review Galaxy Book2 Pro, 15-inch, 16 Ram one? It would be great if you could review it! Or at least, please, make a video of top battery efficient laptops from budget to premium!
Great video, thr standard non fold version looks super competitve but Im having concers about the keyboard, as a life long lenovo user who have great keyboards I hope its not too close to a Macbook but I can find one to try in a store...
My main daily needs are writing with Google Docs all day (since I'm a writer by trade) and playing rpg maker and Wolf rpg engine games at a consistent 60fps, plus the occasional photo editing or streaming. Does this fit those criteria and do it well? And if so, for those needs can I go with the 8gb ram, 256gb ssd model?
Your video where you tested Yoga 9i had better microphone. It definitely sounded richer. I like the specs on Yoga 9i but I just dislike how it looks.. Ugh! Decisions decisions!!! I love the sleekness of Samsung, but I love the gear of Yoga
Would you recommend this laptop 15inch for OBS studio - recording and possibly live streaming (I always close all other programs). I like that is light (travel) and can be used with the S pen (I never had Apple but thinking about MacBook or Samsung).
excellent review, I have a question if you don't use the screen as much because you use a docking station will you get improved performance due to less thermal issues with the screen off?
You need to open the Samsung update app and update about 20 Samusng related applications. This will improve the performance greatly. Battery life on mine is nearly 16 hours (continuous TH-cam viewing at 150 nits, wifi on, battery on, Bluetooth off) Over 1600 for single core and over 8000 for multi-core on Geekbench 5.4.
Hi Andrew, I have the 15.6" Book2 Pro 360 and have no real problem with it ...if you can get by the resolution that is only FHD (1080p) and my only real gripe so far.
Hi. Got the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 2. It’s only been one week and I am having problem’s with heating, computer gets to hot after watching a movie and the blue light 💡 for charging is always on. Even plugged in it never goes to green unless I close it. Also when you plug in or out it has a violent reaction. Screen totally turns off for three seconds. I am thinking of sending it back, but I bought it from Amazon and they don’t let you return it without a good reason. I paid for it in full. What do you think?
has anybody used the 15" version of this for photo editing. Just wondering how it runs Adobe lightroom /Photoshop. I would be talking about the16gb of ram
It would be nice if Samsung focused harder on the 13" thermals...it's almost like they think it wouldn't be compared head to head to the Book2 Pro 360 15" That said the 13" fits my needs very well. And it was $1275 after tax and with the Samsung 3 year warranty / accidental damage coverage. That doesn't include the $150 I got for selling the pre-order 32" monitor and the $108 back from Rakuten.
I am going to start coding... so I am confused if this is a good laptop i should go with (the 13 inch version) or consider another one... Can you help me in this
Can anybody that owns this comment on the practicality of outdoor use with the laptop? I know that it can sustain about 360-400 nits but would it be usable during the day if I wanted to work for hours outside?
Hello, I am considering Samsung Galaxy Book Pro2 360 15 inch laptop for buying for graphics design and digital art purposes. Some complained in TH-cam reviews that 1080 is low resolution. How are the lines in drawing? Do you see the pixels at the edges? Or are they smooth? How is the overall drawing experience? How is other content like TH-cam videos or movies? Thank you.

Hello since you are all talking about Samsung galaxy book2 pro 360, wonder if you have problem like when it ask for system update and you go for it, in the process few minutes downloading it stop and the problem won't take the old pin number anymore. I tried changing the pin like " I forgot the pin number" tried several time, forgot password several time. I know it is now associated with Microsoft. Just want to hear from you before I'll have to send it to the store to have it fix. Thank you.
the battery life sucks i havent even downloaded anything to my new laptop and its quick to die its only been an hour or a little more than an hour it was like at 85 and its at a 54% -_- the audio speakers SO LOW AND FAINT i have to use a cheap bluetooth speaker just to hear my lessons online classes in video otherwise the sound of a fan from walmart is louder than the videos im playing even movies -_- i mean i like the laptop cuz it folds and switches in tablet mode so if im reading online textbook for class makes it great for not strainging my eyes and just scrolling and reading online textbook ....and the laptop gets realy warm or hot i just bought this from bestbuy D:
@@andrewmarcdavid Thanks for your reply. I tried to do a scan via the Crucial Advisor tool. But it doesn't know the machine yet. So it will fun to get to know if it can handle 2TB, 4TB nvme :)
the performance is too horrible. and the battery is not that great considering its big size. just get a used ryzen4000u ultraportable. so much better performance at less than half the price. and it will be upgradable too just to add insult to injury
Horrible is subjective. In retrospect we have overpowered devices for most computers. Considering people just use laptops for web browsing, office work and media consumption. It's very fine for 90% of people. It's definitely overpriced, your paying more for build quality than performance.
Samsung keep doing this. They release great product after great product, and just when you think they're building up the ecosystem, they release a crap one like the galaxy laptops the past two years. What so pro about the galaxy book 2 pro? Too thin that it looses cooling and performance. Poor battery life. Crap speakers. 16 by 9 aspect ratio??? Come on samsung WTH.
Samsung is doing the same as apple, calling their stuff "pro". A professional is someone that has gained advanced degrees or advanced knowledge of a subject. There is NOTHING pro about a device. Really angers me when they misuse these words.
Either Samsung improves their laptop design to compete with others(higher resolution, cooling), or the other companies improve their pen tech(switch to EMR, or improve existing tech).

excellent review, I have a question if you don't use the screen as much because you use a docking station will you get improved performance due to less thermal issues with the screen off?
Theoretically you may see an increase in performance
You need to open the Samsung update app and update about 20 Samusng related applications.
This will improve the performance greatly.

Don't buy from Amazon anymore, next time buy it from Samsung themselves
has anybody used the 15" version of this for photo editing. Just wondering how it runs Adobe lightroom /Photoshop. I would be talking about the16gb of ram
If u use the tablet mode, and like type on youtube does a keyboard appear for the screen?
yes
I was hoping to know, I ordered the 15.6” for basic school work, zoom class, web browsing, and Netflix. Is this worth it?
You should have no issues with the 15.6" version.
no problem on the bigger version :)
I think you made a fine choice.
Everything is good I just wish it had a 2k or higher display even if it had higher prices.
would you recommend this for digital artists for video edition/illustration/animation?
one thing im worried about is the xe graphics. Ive read its not enough for artists. is that true?
Depends on what you are doing. For notetaking and artwork it is fine. For 3d animation and the like look for something with a discrete gpu.
Note for those that don't know: the 16GB model has two fans instead of one
Are you sure this applies to the 13 inch model? Or do you mean that the 15 inch model has two fans (which I have seen).
Notebookcheck shows that the 13 inch - 16 GB model only has one fan.
It would be nice if Samsung focused harder on the 13" thermals...it's almost like they think it wouldn't be compared head to head to the Book2 Pro 360 15"

I can save you time and tell you that this is better than the Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 13".
Is this also true for 15.6inch version?
Does it have hdr and Dolby vision?
Between Galaxy Book 2 Pro and Yoga Slim 7 Carbon Oled version which one do you prefer, since you reviewed both computers.
Yoga Slim 7 Carbon
What temperature the CPU reached during the test?
Hp x360 1030 G2 i7 7eme 512gb 16gb ram good right now or soo old , please give me answer
Can anybody that owns this comment on the practicality of outdoor use with the laptop? I know that it can sustain about 360-400 nits but would it be usable during the day if I wanted to work for hours outside?
Apparantly performance on the 15 inch model is a lot better and is one of the best laptops with a i7 1260p
Hello, I am considering Samsung Galaxy Book Pro2 360 15 inch laptop for buying for graphics design and digital art purposes. Some complained in TH-cam reviews that 1080 is low resolution. How are the lines in drawing? Do you see the pixels at the edges? Or are they smooth? How is the overall drawing experience? How is other content like TH-cam videos or movies? Thank you.
Have u bought?
Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 13.3": Could you tell me this version has face recognition?

Great review
Thanks!
You plan on reviewing the yoga 7i once it's out?
Yes of course
Could you do a quick comparison of how sharp the text is on the 13 vs 15? The 13 has more pixels per inch....curious if you can tell?
I really enjoy your reviews - awesome content!
Thanks amd you are good bro
I like this trend of better webcams. Finally!
Would this be worth purchasing now or yoga ?
I had purchased the same and bro it's really heating to next level....🥵🥵
Specially in the tablet mode.
@@sanketpokharel1226 Especially in tablet mode it's really difficult to hold because of extreme heating issues..
Is Samsung galaxy book 2 pro 360 15 inch version support 5 G and have a nanosim !?
Hello since you are all talking about Samsung galaxy book2 pro 360, wonder if you have problem like when it ask for system update and you go for it, in the process few minutes downloading it stop and the problem won't take the old pin number anymore. I tried changing the pin like " I forgot the pin number" tried several time, forgot password several time. I know it is now associated with Microsoft. Just want to hear from you before I'll have to send it to the store to have it fix. Thank you.
the battery life sucks i havent even downloaded anything to my new laptop and its quick to die its only been an hour or a little more than an hour it was like at 85 and its at a 54% -_- the audio speakers SO LOW AND FAINT i have to use a cheap bluetooth speaker just to hear my lessons online classes in video otherwise the sound of a fan from walmart is louder than the videos im playing even movies -_-
i mean i like the laptop cuz it folds and switches in tablet mode so if im reading online textbook for class makes it great for not strainging my eyes and just scrolling and reading online textbook ....and the laptop gets realy warm or hot i just bought this from bestbuy D:
no. a PC/bulky lap (ports) + a tablet + phones are the new combo for 2022+.
Can’t wait for the Dell XPS 13 plus videos!
Very soon
Do you know if the SSD is upgradable?
Yes
@@andrewmarcdavid Thanks for your reply. I tried to do a scan via the Crucial Advisor tool. But it doesn't know the machine yet. So it will fun to get to know if it can handle 2TB, 4TB nvme :)
the performance is too horrible. and the battery is not that great considering its big size. just get a used ryzen4000u ultraportable. so much better performance at less than half the price. and it will be upgradable too just to add insult to injury
Horrible is subjective. In retrospect we have overpowered devices for most computers. Considering people just use laptops for web browsing, office work and media consumption. It's very fine for 90% of people. It's definitely overpriced, your paying more for build quality than performance.
As he showed, this performance much better than even Ryzen 7 5800U. I think you missed up the 13 inch performance woth the 15 inch.
@@theyoutuber273 13 inch is better than. 15?

Can you connect a wireless mouse?
Yes of course
Will this laptop be good for coding???
why is there no numpad on the right side of the keyboard? I thought the Book 2 pro 360 had it.
15.6 has numpad , 13 does not. I mentioned that in the video
Is this good for podcasting?
Should work fine.
Samsung keep doing this. They release great product after great product, and just when you think they're building up the ecosystem, they release a crap one like the galaxy laptops the past two years. What so pro about the galaxy book 2 pro? Too thin that it looses cooling and performance. Poor battery life. Crap speakers. 16 by 9 aspect ratio??? Come on samsung WTH.
the 15.6" model has an insane 18 hours of battery life.
Nice review sir
How many milliseconds s pen latency for this laptop?
Thanks
Bad one. Why there is no 4k display variant??
Hello Andrew, great video! Thanks for your effort.
Another question, please could you test the new MSI Summit series?
Yes, soon
Samsung is doing the same as apple, calling their stuff "pro". A professional is someone that has gained advanced degrees or advanced knowledge of a subject. There is NOTHING pro about a device. Really angers me when they misuse these words.
Nothing pro about it. Only 16gb ram and 1TB SSD?
I am glad they finally decided to add a HDMI port. That is really needed.
They don't have hdmi, the 2 pro 360 does not.
@@BigGollum1 True, but I were thinking of the Book2 version, not this one.
When you look at the inside of these computers, you realise how well made MacBooks are.
Might be worth mentioning the 3 year warranty
Yes, good point.
Not good enough... so for $1600 just 1 TB4 port and Full HD screen? Way too much money for what you're getting
21 hours but your telling us 6 to 7 hours? Wtf
If Samsung claims 21 hours it’s a video playback test. My test is very accurate
Perform worse, having less battery life. Only an idiot would buy this
Depends on what you are looking for
Then i guess i am one of them :)...But the Galaxy Book 2 360 in stead of the Pro version might be a tad better.
NO WAY IF AINT 4K !!!!!
Hey u markdavidreviews on val? If so then gg on that deathmatch
