The latency or speed of the RAM absolutely cannot make up for a lack of capacity. Saying this 16GB of "equivalent to say 24GB" is Apple level of misinformation and I'm very disappointed

[@geezher]

Exactly!

[@dahlia695]

This is some serious misinformation in the review.

[@audiophile...]

And my day is ruined

[@stinkinlincoln926]

It’s not always about the capacity but also how it’s used. You can beef it up all you want, but if software sucks, it’s worthless.

[@Gravage]

Yeah, I was perplexed by that claim. Kind of hard to take any of the rest of it seriously after that.

[@verygoodbrother]

No upgrade whatsoever is major red flag. The reduction in RAM latency is nice but with CAMM around the corner, this advantage disappear.

[@popeye82]

Hey Ben, do you think drivers updates will bring the adreno up to pay with arc igpu? Their specs seem similar. Thank you in advance... Btw "tee flops" sounds great to my ears😊

[@chunkdog3000]

curious did you notice any keys that were getting stuck/clicky when you pressed the keys at an angle? bugged about that on mine...

[@morm2173]

Can you make in depth comparison with book 4 ultra dolby atmos speakers , gaming , which is better to upgrade etc ?

[@senna476]

Did you turn on Dolby Atmos?

[@joche92]

Ben could you compare battery life vs the book 4 pro intel versions respectively??

[@JohnsonLimerstine]

Does any of these have 5g?

[@Antonis24]

Thx for the review. Sorry if I missed it, but which power plan have you set these devices on, both on a/c and battery?

[@BenGKaiser]

These are on High Performance mode plugged into the charger.

[@Antonis24]

@@BenGKaiser Thnx. And what about during your battery life tests?

[@janglaser585]

Looks great

[@user-lx1fo1kr9s]

Hello, yoga Slim 7X X Elite 32GB vs M2 Pro 16GB Iam currently deciding which machine to get but aim kinda unsure. Iam a cs student and software developer and the machine should def be powerful enough for my workload. Ty

How does the Samsung eUFS strorage performance compare with a fast NVMe SSD?

[@saravantunuguntla131]

Is it possible to use two external displays, either with thunderbolt dock or 1hdmi and 1 type-c inbuilt for two extending two external displays

[@popeye82]

Yes. I bought one and that's how I use it

Can you use the 2 usb c to charge the laptop and use display port 1.4?

@Ben can it drive Samsung 49" NEO monitor to optimum resolution?

[@senna476]

What where you settings during battery life tests for the 14? Kinda curious i have one myself🙃

[@hansdoreen]

Screen off probably. Other reviewers have 10-12 hours on light load tasks such as video playback.

[@hosseindianati7798]

Thanks for the review. I'm a writer and a manager. Do you think I should go for the Edge or the intel based Pro 16? Im not worried about the performance,but app compatibility such as VPNs or things like that! I would appreciate it if you help me with this regard.

[@Burbanana]

in terms of efficiency, compatibility and power, I would recommend an AMD model, a 7840 or 8840 Ryzen 7. Or one of their new Ryzen AI 370 or whatever its called lol. Intel Core ultra isnt bad either, but you just get more out of the AMD chips.

[@hosseindianati7798]

@@Burbanana thanks for your help.

[@crussell4691]

Can you test to see how it performs running FL Studio or Cubasea?

[@Richardclarkson7819]

I hate that Samsung uses a USB-C port to charge the laptop. Should use a normal power plug. Also hate ads on home screen. Not enough ports. If using a Hub, not all things plugged into it will work.

[@senna476]

You hate USB C charging why?

[@shubhammeena927]

hey dude, to get the max performance from these chip, set the power plan to performance from control panel not from the settings, they both are actually different.

[@johnshepherd2666]

Lots of great info..many comparison graphs (maybe too many)😢..I want to touch one in the store to test the wobble on the screen ...I touched the screen on a LG 16 "....it wobbled so much that I run away 😮😮😮😮

[@vincentchi56]

Does anyone know 14" thickness 10.9mm in front side or whole side ? I want to know real size (thicknest), thanks.

[@shaneterrell]

I was highly tempted by the Book4 Edge 14's thinness and lightness, but I went with a base model Surface Pro with the Snapdragon X Plus instead. Samsung especially, but other manufacturers as well, need to get with the times regarding ram. 16gb base, 32gb as an option, unless the device is a glorified Chromebook.

[@bokuwatobi766]

Are we able to use Linux on these?

[@eddieoconnor4466]

Everything looks great with these laptops! I'm wondering how well they run Linux?...gonna grab the 14-inch and see how well it does with ZorinOS or ElementaryOS!...I may have just found the perfect MacBook for those who don't like MacBooks!...LOL! As for "Recall"? No I don't now.....never have...nor ever WILL need something like THAT on my systems....EVER. They can keep it...

[@senna476]

Photoshop is ARM native already right?

[@mohamedhussain3813]

is the trackpad a pressure pad like mac ??

[@Gravage]

no. Only the Surface Laptop 7 has that.

[@likhanbiswas8149]

Is it 180° foldable ?????

[@janglaser585]

No

[@likhanbiswas8149]

It has backlit keyboard ??????????

[@janglaser585]

Yes

[@MarkusDorseyHirt]

It does

[@Burbanana]

does best buy tell you what to talk about and what not to? Please tell us.

[@BenGKaiser]

No, they do not. Best Buy DID NOT have any input on the content of this video. :)

[@Burbanana]

@@BenGKaiser thank you!

[@HDRPC]

That is excuse. Lunar Lake has MoP with 32GB ram

[@ruzaroos]

So does the X Elite. The Asus 15 sold at Costco has 32GB and you can spec the Lenovo Yoga with 32GB on the Lenovo website. This is a choice Samsung made or they traded access to the X1E-84 with not taking the 32GB SoC from other vendors. Who knows, but 32GB is obviously better than 16GB. He should have just said, hey Apple is giving you 8GB on the base M3 MacBook Pro which is an outright insult. 😂

[@theartofpi]

Just thinking how would 16gb worked on few open apps lets say after effects premiere lightrom and ps ... My old laptop got 64 and its not handling it

nope

You think?🤔 Cuz im not sure about it

[@HDRPC]

@@albertomartin70 yes. You will see. Wait until end of 2025 and then check market start of X86-64 vs ARM.

[@dheeraj3945]

I'd have picked up the 16 without second thought if it weren't for that numpad and offset keys

[@popeye82]

The num pad is the best reason to buy the 16 incredibly useful for work

I don't know why your views are down but I think you should make a change in your videos, you are talented and I hope your videos get a lot of views.

[@Q8.Muslim]

rule N.01 : never buy the first model .. although my hope for it to be able to bush it at least 200w power draw for mode performance .. but the plan looks like they will make as wait for high gains in the 4th generation ~

[@kylorokx1552]

Since Windows on Arm is still half baked system for me. So I will be waiting for lunar lake chips.

Same

[@khusbusVlog]

Rip x86 intel X86 dead is near

[@HDRPC]

@@khusbusVlog people are saying since 2020 Apple M1 that X86-64 will be dead in 2023. We are in 2024 X86-64 has 90% market share in laptops. After Lunar Lake in Q3 2024, X86-64 will gain more market share. ARM will be dead for forever.

[@theartofpi]

How can they not include sd card reader... why Samsung?

[@jan3019]

I know right? They can giveaway TV but not a card reader.

[@theartofpi]

@@jan3019 heh they started it with no micro SD in phones but its contagious... 😜

They have one. Use micro SD and put into an adapter for your camera. Micro SD is more useful as a whole
