Hey there, I just recently bought the Galax Book 3 Pro 360 and it seems to me that the left hinge is a bit misplaced and there sometimes is a minor *crack* sound when opening the laptop. It seems as your laptop also has a weird left hinge, or am I seeing that wrong? I am wondering if its simply normal or if I should return it😅

[@TheFighterX4]

how is this with Video Editing and 3D?. like ZBrush

[@JBellfx]

I also niticed the same with mine....@@cang.2658

Is it made in vietnam?

[@GamezGuru1]

so no thought on what it's like to use as a tablet, nothing? you barely even acknowledge it's a 2-in-1 - what a useless review...

[@Letstalk-zx7jx]

Am I the only one who doesn't care about the fingerprints?

[@SoulOfTech]

No, Im sure lots of people do not mind it.

Yea, don't care much either

No at all 😂, i don't give a f

The last thing on my mind, lol

No your not !Maybe he should wash his hands more

Got a samsung phone, tablet, and watch so I was wondering if the laptops were good too... I am impressed.

I have the galaxy book2, with a 1255U, for one year noe. Similar specs, just the previous generation. I've been very happy with it. I don't use it extensively, but when I do it runs quite well, plenty of power, and I was abler to open up the back and install a Samsung 990 Pro. Nice feature to be able to upgrade. I have noticed that when running on battery, there is little heat issuer; this is more of an issue when running on AC. As the fellow stated, the screen is gorgeous. I can definitely recommend these Samsung Book series laptops. Thinking of getting my wife this one (but with the 1360P, which has two more performance cores for a total of 4 P cores and 8 E cores.

When you add the SSD, is it as additional storage or did you replace the original SSD comes with the window system preinstalled?

[@BriefNerdOriginal]

Interesting that the MS face unlock worked even if you were moving fast and were at a steep angle compared to the camera... I argue that it's not that difficult to trick the security of the MS face unlock.

[@alwinjoseph4419]

I just bought this laptop because of Prime Day sales in Europe. I got the i7 1360P CPU variant, I am very excited to actually get it.

Glad to find a good review for this laptop scene there's not that many vids for it. Planning to get it for drawing reason.

[@SoulOfTech]

Glad I could help!

[@luchezarny_]

[@megarock6018]

@@luchezarny_ I have it, and it's good for drawing with the s pen on krita, clip paint studio, and FireAlpaca. Also good for watching stuff, and can run some games with the Intel chip.

I own this machine, In my country India the Spen is included in the box but the charging dock is way too bulky and big in size compared to one you have got here😊

[@divyanshtiwari1273]

Hey! How has your experience been for this machine? Mainly the battery life and the heating issues as mentioned in this video. Also, any reasons I should consider buying this and not Dell i7 laptops of similar price range? Thanks!

found the 15” version (and 1tb) of this for 1050$ in the usa, what a steal

Thanks for confirming some items however can you connect this to an external monitor with a 3440x1440 resolution?

Thanks for this review. After one year of use, do you still experience the fan noise issue or did they solve the problem?

[@ba3000]

So would you say this laptop is good for photoshop use? And maybe to have side game as Sims 5 that is about to come out for example?

[@syedpasha3552]

Port diversity is great but port standards are lacking. You nailed it there ! Also the finger prints issue and the thermals. Overall, I found it an absolutely honest assessment. Bravo, thank you and keep it up !

Thank you, really glad you liked to review :) Hope you’ll consider subbing to the channel. Have a great day!

Is the Samsung book 3 360 better than the Samsung tab s9 plus?

[@_mishi]

16:9 aspect ratio is very unfortunate by my standards. With 16:10 or 3:2 and better thermal system this would be an ideal 2 in1 laptop, considering you can be fine with fingerprints like me

[@schlaemzas]

its 16:10

Hi there i have a acer aspire 3 4gb ram (upgraded to 8) and a amd 3020e with radeon graphics. Its not great for gaming but its still fine, is the galaxy book good for gaming? what games will it run? Thanks

[@justanothergamedev8643]

I dont really think it's very good for gaming, as it used intel built in graphics. Id reccommend that you get a laptop with a dedicated graphics device (preferebly a rtx 30 series or above), And then do some research too, just to make sure it's a good laptop.

[@danitop76]

about this fingerprint ...Maybe you should see a psychiatrist, I don't know😁

Do you still have this laptop cause am lowkey thinking of buying it for school and honesty would like to know your opinion on it knowing your comment is 3 months old

[@homerp3292]

Is it certificated by TUV? Or any eyesafe ?😢

[@LucienSabre]

If it wasn’t for the logo, this could very well be my current Huawei laptop (and a MacBook “clone”) - they are practically identical….a sign laptops’ external design is pretty much dead.

I have the original from 2021 and this is not much of an upgrade. Jus a couple gen Intel chip upgrade, same old graphics. They fixed some design flaws but nothing really has changed. People knocked the new MB Air M2 but that was a reinvention of the wheel compared to this very iterative upgrade. No reason to upgrade and in fact, I would suggest that this is, like the Gen 2, not worth buying. Wait for the new ARC iGPU in 2024.

[@FelixSunnyy]

Reasons to upgrade- Better screen, Better Speaker, Better cooling, Better processor, Software updates.

[@checkanr138]

it has better screen, 4K, better ports and better processor, chassis is made fully from aluminium now. i would argue there is a few upgrades, but the small base model specs are ridiculous, considering samsung manufactures very good SSDs. 256 and 8gb is just stupid to put out as min specs in 2023...

Man, the notebook is not a fingerprint magnet. You are a neurotic obsessed with cleanliness. Have ever occurred to you that it is insane to care about your fingerprints in a device that is used by touching it constantly?

[@SoulOfTech]

Hey there, I guess name calling can't be helped over the internet *sigh* none the less I'll humor you. 1. The opening sequence was purely comedic, to your point I come across 1000's of products some are in fact finger print magnets, I don't think my sanity would last very long if I was in fact as obsessed as you think I am. 2. I trust you watched the whole review and realize less than maybe 2% of the review was about finger prints. I praise and critique the SB3 on far more relevant things, though I guess it's easier to anchor a person over something we don't like. I don't blame you, its common behavior really. 3. I have reviewed close to a 100 laptops since starting this channel and it is easily one of the most finger print prone ones, which just makes it an objective observation from my point of view. No need to get so touchy about it (see what I did there) :) Relax and take it easy! I wish you a great day and hope you found something of value!.
