WOW. Received mine this morning. It's an expensive work of art! 😍 I didn't want to switch it on for the first 10 mins just sat there staring at it and feeling it 😂 Super premium quality. Screen wobble not an issue during normal use. I don't notice it at all. The sound is more than adequate for a laptop. Not bassy but good quality & clear sound. Mono setting sounds fuller. The keyboard is excellent, I prefer it to a full size standalone Logitech keyboard I've been using recently. No issues with touch pad palm rejection which I've read about. The screen is mind blowing. It's a quiet laptop. Nippy during all windows tasks. Appreciate the 16inch screen.
Great Video Andrew! Been waiting for this for a long time.
Nice PC. Camera looked good and mics sounded clear. The speakers next to the MACBOOK definitely inferior, but when you listen to them for a while on its own most users will get used to it. Screen wobble noticed. Numpad layout is poor. Samsung needs to redesign it or remove it for reasons I stated in prior reviews. Display is excellent. Excellent review as always.
Congratulations on the beautiful and complete review. I was eagerly waiting to see if this model would have two fans. Greetings from Carrancas waterfalls MG Brazil.
Andrew, great review! Thank you! If price was not an issue, how would this compare to the Lenovo Yoga 7i that you reviewed earlier? I am a Samsung user but care about build quality and battery more than Samsung integration as the Your Phone app included in Windows does a great job alone. I purchased a Book3 Pro 360 to test and received it today. Best Buy has a Yoga 7i with 32GB ram as an open box in my local store for less than $999 and it is making me wonder how much better this Book3 Pro 360 is IF ANY than the Yoga 7i. I have owned Lenovo Yogas in the past and really like the Lenovo and Thinkpad lines but do like the 2 in 1 models. Your thoughts on the comparison between these 2 would help with my decision. Thank you.
I love this laptop. I am having such a good time with it.
Off topic but I was able to score the Asus Zenbook 14 Flip OLED (13th gen Intel) today and it should be delivered next week. I signed up for the email notification for when it was released. Got super lucky!
Keep the reviews coming!👍😉 🤔...after about two minutes I already had to wind back to make sure I heared it right...HDMI 1.4...in 2023...🤔...I missed this part in the Pros&Cons...so do you think it's not really a con?
Thanks for the review. I think I'm gonna pull the trigger on this one. Unfortunately though, in my country, things are a little more expensive, and this comes out to a total of around $2,350, which is a little more than the $1,700 in the US. Oh well...
Going by the amount of space, it’s crazy that they’re soldering the RAM! Framework supports upgradeable memory in a 13 inch chassis!
Its not really about PCB size, but about device thickness. This device wants to be so badly a 2016-2019 era MBP, and as such, they also copied the asinine thickness of that era.
Thank you for your help. looking for a new laptop, tend to not care for the Samsung bloatware. I hope something new appears before my late April extended trip. currently have an older 7th gen Intel Samsung, not great support, that is another story...
Been using a couple weeks now - came from an HP Elitebook - Love the Display - The speakers are probably the most underwhelming part of it - also - let us upgrade the RAM Samsung!
Is the screen still intact?
Yup - no issues with it whatsoever! You can see how Samsung brought all of their cellphone/tablet experience to this laptop - would buy again!@@Rielle5222
Great review 👍
Hey Andrew, Great stuff, thanks for the review, there is just one question I have that the review didn't mention: Is there any way to store the S-pen with the laptop? Or you have to carry it separately and somehow not lose it? Thanks!
The pen sticks magnetically to the lid. Other than that no other place to store the pen
@@andrewmarcdavid That is perfect, thanks! It's not as good as if there were a dedicated holder, like a hole in the device, similarly to say the galaxy note phones, but still. Better than nothing I guess. Thanks again for the answer!
@@andrewmarcdavidHi, Andrew is there a 16.9 aspect 15 inch screen laptop out there that you could recommend which has real good speakers? thanks.
Hi Andrew, I watched your Galaxy book 3 pro 14 inch review and I actually ended up buying the Beige version :) you mentioned you would have a video on the integration of Samsung devices, any update on that video?
Yes, I am in the middle of working on it. Stay tuned.
@@andrewmarcdavid Thanks, looking forward to it.
Great stuff, as always. I agree with your concern over the glossiness of the screen and the screen wobble. A question, a couple actually. Regarding the wobble, do you think the Book3 Pro wobbles less than the Pro 360, maybe holds the screen position better too? Oh, and someone said the Pro 360 comes with 5G capability, while the Pro does not, do you know if that's true? And regarding that vent on the back edge of the Pro 360, do you think that additional cooling capability might help the Pro 360 have a greater battery life than the Pro, or would any such difference be negligible? I do not do photo or video editing, or big spreadsheet stuff. I do however spend long hours day and night seven days a week online doing research but also heavy streaming and chrome use, some movies, but more productivity and streaming stock quotes and such, in case that matters. I'm not averse to spending more for the Book3 Ultra, if there's reason to, but the Ultra's apparent much lower battery life concerns me, so I'm actually considering either the Book3 Pro or Pro 360, or the upcoming Dell XPS17 9730, all with the 13th gen i7 not the i9. The XPS has 500 nits brightness and that matt screen you like, though to get the better battery life I'd likely have to go with the FHD screen instead of the 4k option, I don't see a 3k option like with the Book3's. And since I am likely going to be getting the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra phone, maybe sticking with one of the Samsung Book3's might make more sense. Trade offs no matter what I do. Any thoughts on the other things I've mentioned? Thanks for another great review regardless.
As i have seen here (in Germany, maybe in your market it is not the same) the normal pro 360 isnt a 5g model (in term of an extra slot for a sim card), but there is a pro 360 model called 5g model with a sim card slot, but it costs much more. Hopefully this helps
@@badnai Thanks. I wish I could get the 5G version of the Pro 360. Depending on the price increase of course, that would make my decision between the Pro, Pro 360 or Ultra much more simple. But I don't see any reference on the Samsung website to either a 5G option, or that the one offered already includes 5G. On a side note, I notice that the Samsung website shows the Pro with HDMI 2.0, but the Pro 360 with HDMI but no number reference. Makes me suspicious that the Pro 360 is HDMI 1.4 while the Pro is 2.0. Wish I could confirm that too, for that would also help me with my decision.
@@Nate-zy5ce yeah I think with the HDMI port should have been clearer, sadly it's not. Becauae of the 5g Modell, maybe it will come later to your market. I also don't know which to buy. I think I will wait to summer and see how the prices changes. If the ultra is only 3k euros then, then I will buy it
@@badnai My main concern about the Book3 Ultra is how much of a drop off in battery life compared to the Pro and Pro360 might come with it. If it's negligible then I might go for the Ultra if the price isn't too high. It has so much going for it otherwise. Any idea?
@@Nate-zy5ce I have heard of 7h for the battery of the ultra, but I don't know either. Maybe there will be a comparison of a KZheadr or so I hope
Can I make book3 work with palm rejection? Settings or with S Pen?
Looking for a 16GB gpu, +64GB ram and the maximum cpu cores possible. Would you recommend a good laptop? Alienware 18 is one of my options but unfortunately its heavy and doesn't have the fingerprint sensor which I need Thanks!
We need framework laptop review.
I m in the middle east can I buy it from your website or only USA/Canada????
Hello Andrew, I hope you're doing well! I would like to ask you, or anyone who can answer my question, which one of these laptops shall I get: The Samsung Galaxy book3 pro 360, Macbook air m2 13.16", Macbook pro m2 13" or the Dell xps13( or if you have any other recommendations)? I don't do heavy work load(video editing and such) BUT I do use the mc office, Google, email and KZhead all at the same time for like 7+ hours most of the time. And I want to get a new laptop but I really don't know which one I shall get, even after watching your videos for the laptops I want 3 times each lol So a little help if anyone could please? I'd really be grateful!!
hey, was wondering which laptop did u decide to go for?
@@johnrodes4859 Hi, So I actually didn't end up getting any of the laptops I mentioned before. I went with the MacBook Air M1 with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD instead. After looking at reviews and considering the marginal difference between the M1 and M2 MacBook Air models, I decided to invest in the M1 and expanded the RAM and SSD for better overall performance. It seemed like a more cost-effective choice for my needs.
Yoga pro 9i 16" has full card sd card, way better speakers especially on 16 inch varient and yoga pro 9i 2023 is the best i think. Rog flow x16 2023 is also looking great.
Yep I have my eyes on the 16inch yoga 9i pro too. The Yoga def packs a bit more punch as you configure up to a 100w 4070 which will eat the intel integrated gfx for lunch on the book3 pro 360. However my only concern would be the weight difference, 3.77lbs vs 4.6lbs for the Yoga. 1lb is Def very noticeable. So idk.. Also.. How would the mini led on the yoga 9i compare to the amoled on this?
@@gadgetsawol3614 you can buy any of these. Asus rog flow x16 2023, yoga pro 9i 2023 or galaxy book 3 ultra.
I have small hands and found the trackpad to large. My palms always clicked or moved me off page when typing.
Has anyone confirmed if that was a second M.2 SSD slot? I bought this laptop and love it. Anyone with battery problems needs to let the laptop understand your usage pattern and adjust. Just like with Samsung phones... I have been having solidy battery life on mine doing web browsing and watching videos here and there.

@@jerrytemitayo3957 ???
Does it have gorilla glass protection?
Hi, I want to buy this laptop, I will use it only for Ms office, movies and web browsing no heavy stuff no gaming no editing, is it a good choice ? Iam only worried about the screen cracking please help
Would it be better to pick this up for 2,200 CAD, or wait until the book 2 pro 360 comes back in stock for just over 1000 CAD? Or is a levono 9i a better pickup for 1500?
Have you decided? I'm stuck on the same choice!
@@demetrisyianni9175 yep ended up going with the book 2 and dont regret it! Only thing I dont like is the big bezel at the bottom, I do schoolwork and some light gaming on it and hsvent had any issues
Can somebody please share the original Galaxy Book 3 wallpapers?
Suggest between Lenovo yoga 9i and galaxy Book 3 pro 360
First things that come to mind would be weight difference (3.77lbs vs yoga 4.63) and screen (mini led vs Samsung amoled). 16" Yoga 9i can be equipped with a 100w 4070 too..
More bass in MBP 14 but Galaxy book sounds pretty good!
Yoga pro 9i 2023 16inch has best speakers on a laptop. It sounds pretty great.
I'm looking for a durable laptop which I can use for many years to come without any problem.. I'm worried if this 2 in 1 feature and the touch screen option in any laptop would be a hindrance for the durability part. Could you please explain if there is any truth to this ? In that case I would have to go to standard Galaxy Book Pro 3 i.e., without the 2 in 1 option. Thank you in advance.
Ive had an hp touch screen laptop for almost 4 years and no issues besides the battery only lasting for an hour
thinkpad or framework?
I have been really disappointed with mine. Even on 60hz, battery saver on, 50% brightness I barely get 5 hours battery. Also runs hot when on my lap. Also I find the audio quality is too quiet and tinny. Maybe I have been spoiled by using a MacBook Pro for the last few years. A totally superior device
I can never seem to bring myself to buy one of these laptops because it's always too much stuff I don't like so I decided that I don't want a 2 in 1 but just rather have a nice MacBook.
It is awesome laptop and is cheaper now. Very nice device.

Wow that 19:34 transition from Apple to Samsung is all you need to know about these two devices
Does anyone ever use a laptop in tent mode, or the stand mode? I have never seen anyone using a laptop like this in the real world.
I use mine in tent mode occasionally since I prefer my portable keyboard and mouse. With the laptop raised up it feels more like a traditional computing experience looking at a monitor.
Anybody notice the horrible unevenness of the laptop bottom cover at 10:33? How can such horrible build quality make it to a 1700USD product?
This would be better if it had amd 7840hs
I was thinking about getting it, but those speakers are so bad compared to apple devices. Also no IR camera and bad touchpad…
Being the accessor, Samsung doesn’t seem to learn. 10 years straight in my “No no” list.
Samsung, unfortunately, continues to be a company I don't look for when it comes to PCs. Not necessarily saying the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro 360 (2023) is a bad PC but for my taste, I would go for a real PC manufacturer such as Lenovo, Dell and even HP. Once again, there is no comparison when it comes to the sound quality of the MacBook Pro as Apple continues to be the king when it comes to their audio quality. All and all, not a bad PC from Samsung but just not for me. Great video review once again Andrew! 👏😁
The only problem with Samsung laptop is the hinge wobble to much and that can be really annoying
I'm about to replace my Samsung laptop, which has been solid for over a decade. Hoping to have the same luck with this new laptop as I have had with my old one.
glassy display and 15" is what that stopped me to buy this device. 16" 4:3 ratio is the best choice for ultrabook imho
This is a 16 inch display
@@andrewmarcdavid really? great, thanks
Just sharing our thoughts😊. Sir and graphically challenged channel just hate matt finish on any display. Matt coatings just ruins screen quality. We will prefer glossy at any cost. We don't need matt, never.
Graphically challenged channel???
