25:24 Major point, if you are wanting to buy this years version - the Galaxy book2 pro 360, while it is more durable, please avoid holding it from in between the hinges, especially when the screen is flipped all the way back in tablet mode. Even if you are gentle. I held mine vertically, in the middle of the hinges one day after I got it, and unfortunately I heard a crack. While there was no visible damage and there was no effect to the use, I noticed that the screen was able to be bent forwards and backwards in the portion between the hinges quite easily with the push of a finger. While, if you didn't put much pressure on this area, there would be no effect, I contacted samsung about this, and since it was still within 14 days from purchase, I got a replacement arranged, free of charge, once they receive this return, I should receive a new one. So just be cautious and never hold the laptop on the side of the hinges, and in-between them, especially when the screen is flipped back into tablet mode. Other than that, in the one day of use I got out of the one I had, I was pleasantly surprised, and I can say that this review is very accurate and the laptop is great apart from this one concern. While I would prefer a 1440p display, it is still just barely able to pull of being 1080p on a 15.6 inch model, if the laptop was any bigger than that, then it would be a different story. So again, if you hold the laptop in the air, hold it by the shorter sides, or near the edges of the long side, almost exactly on the hinges for safety. Enjoy!

Incredibly detailed video, easily the best review I've seen of this model on KZitem. Have nearly been convinced to get it, except for one quandary: 13.3 vs 15.6 inch. What are the pros and cons in terms of screen real estate for productivity vs usability as a tablet (and reduction in cost)?
@RADERTECH
2 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate you. So between the 13 and 15, it's a give and take game. If you get the 13.3", you'll have a higher PPI screen than the 15.6, resulting in sharper text. Tablet mode is also easier to manage with the smaller version as well. But, the 13 gets hotter under load, and I recommend the i5 over the i7 on the smaller model because of it. For the 15.6, the text won't look quite as sharp, but you can push it harder and go with the i7 more confidentiality due to the better thermals. Both great machines, you can't go wrong either way.

Hi Radar, thank you for another detailed and very good video. If I may, there is one correction: Samsungs Auto-framing is not “a take on Apple’s auto-tracking feature”, but a take on Samsungs own auto-framing feature available since Galaxy Fold 2 (in camera software, running only with the ultrawide lens) which is again a take on Nvidias auto-framing and on the face tracking in MS Teams, available even for a longer time. Apple has been the last one who joined the club, but gave it the nice name “center-stage”.

Great review. Very well done. The level of detail was fantastic. Yes it's a long review but I (and I bet most viewers) appreciated the level of detail you provided in this review. I especially appreciated the fact that you included an outdoors shot. Much to my chagrin as more manufacturers move to GLOSSY OLED screens the super high reflectivity of these screens is negatively impacting where you can comfortably use these laptops. So it's important to see what the screen visibility is in well lit environments. So kudos to you for showing the outdoor view. Just a minor critique....in those outdoor shots it felt like you positioned the camera to minimize the reflections...I would have much rather seen you just take the video head on to show an unvarnished view of the screen reflectivity at normal head-on eye level outdoors rather than an optimized (best case) viewing angle. Maybe you could show both a "normal" view (how you would position the screen if you weren't trying to compensate for reflectivity) in a brightly lit area and a more "optimized view" that shows screen angle adjustments one might make to compensate/mitigate the brightness from that same laptop position...Again a minor critique to what was an excellent review. Keep up the great work!

I'll try to remember to point out the viewing angles next time, i like that idea a lot!

@@RADERTECH No problem...As I said my suggestion was just a minor nit to what was an overall great and thorough review. Did you post that other video showing outside shots? If so I'll look for it. I realize that outdoor use is kind of the acid test but I tend to use my laptop on my outdoor patio (partly shaded) and I think having a glossy display will make it problematic (or at least incredibly annoying) for me to use it there...Of course I won't know for sure until I purchase a glossy display laptop and confirm it. As the manufacturers move more towards GLOSSY screens I think reflectivity/glare is going to be more of an issue for users...seeing how the glossy screen impacts use in a well lit indoor environment (e.g., close proximity to a window) and in outdoor areas (not necessarily directly in the sun) would be very useful...at least to me and I suspect others.

I have the first gen Galaxy Book pro 360 15-inch. When it comes to the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 360, all I can say is WOW! My experience has been amazing. From the thin and light design to the AMOLED display to the amazing keyboard and touch pad to the exceptional S-Pen inking and incredible Samsung Ecosystem. I think you have really captured how easy it is to fall in love with the overall design of the Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 laptop. In my experience there are other Windows PCs that have created some wonderful laptop brand PCs. Like the Microsoft Surface or Dell XPS or Lenovo ThinkPad or HP, just to name a few. All of these build some wonderful PCs. But Samsung has really created something special with the Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 and the integration of the Samsung Ecosystem. Looking forward to reviewing your other content. Thanks again.

Now I'm at least willing to give it a try. I'm just tired of waiting for Microsoft to hurry up and come out with a new generation of their Surface Laptop devices to include the 12th gen Intel processors. I'm beginning to think that they want to just steer everyone to their bulky Surface Studio Laptops and they will stop making the Surface Laptop devices.

Hi, thanks for watching! If you plan on pushing it hard (gaming, video editing, etc..), I would go with the 15", as it has 2 fans and doesn't thermal throttle as easily. However, for everyday type tasks, you'll have a higher pixel density screen with the smaller model, so text will look a little clearer, albeit smaller. I would personally go with the 15" for 2 reasons... It has 2 fans instead of 1, and it has 2 m.2 ssd slots instead of the 1 on the 13", so the 15" will easily let you add more storage down the road. If you do end up doing that, please keep in mind that the 2nd (open) ssd slot on the 15" is 2230 size, instead of 2280 like the main ssd. Also, either one can be hooked up to 1 or several 1080p/1440p/4k displays, so you have options in that regard. Happy to help with any other questions you might have.

Hi, thanks for watching! This is most likely due to a BIOS udpate that your machine likely just got, especially if it's new. Do you still have the amber power light when plugged in to power, and does it turn green still when charged? If so, try just pressing the power button for 1 to 2 seconds, no more than that, and see if the light turns blue. If it does, wait a little bit and it should eventually start up. If not, then press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds, then press and hold it for 1 to 2 secods. Go through this a couple times and it should be in good shape. Please let me know if you need any more assistance.

Hi, thanks for watching! That is definitely a big concern with a lot of folks, understandably. If you do end up getting it, just make sure you don't pick it up between the hinges, it will flex a little bit if you do. Grab it off to the side, closer to one of the hinges, or by where the trackpad is when it's closed. I think most of the issues getting reported are because of this. They really need to re-enforce it some, or add a third hing component so it doesn't flex. I've had this one and last year's since launch and always grab them this way, no issues to report.

Thank you so much for the kind words and for stopping by! That's so awesome, it really is a nice machine, especially if you're in the market for something ultra thin/light and portable, that's where it really shines. A couple things to consider when buying - If you're looking at the smaller 13" variant, I recommend going with the i5 instead of spending extra for the i7. The i7 overheats easily on the smaller model, and you'll experience thermal throttling when pushing it hard. It's understandable though, the 12th gen i7 is just a little "much" for such a small device. For the 15" model, you won't have the same heating problem with the i7, so definitely go with it on the larger one if you can afford it. Also, if you plan on keeping it more than just a couple of years, definitely get the 16gb option over the 8gb. The RAM is soldered on like on most ultralight laptops, and 8gb just really isn't enough these days. Hope this helps, and thanks for watching, I appreciate you.

@@RADERTECH hey, thanks so much. You truly are a helpful person. I didn't expect you to take your time out to give such detailed important advice. :) coincidentally I was still actually choosing between 15.6 vs 13.3. Does the 13.3 i7 get hot under normal prolonged use too..? As I am getting this for my brother who is doing doctor md medicine and he wanted something light but also premium & powerful but which he can carry on his rounds & checkups. I have been holding him back waiting for 12th gen or we would have gotten a surface. There are hardly any detailed reviews on this and this isn't available in Samsung stores of many major cities in India lol I'd like to go with the 15.6 i7 version but it's unavailable (currently on their website but available on amazon) even then I guess I still have to opt for the i7 13.3 ( since price diff. Is 130usd for those extra inches but just 60 usd for i5 to i7 jump) 😅 plus the increased weight can make it uncomfortable for him to carry it for long period. But still finalising on it. :)

@@KunalSrivastava30 You're welcome, always happy to help. For regular use (non gaming, non editing/rendering) tasks, I think you're brother would be fine with any model you pick. The heating issue is only a real factor if you're pushing the system hard and for prolonged periods of time. Since your brother is a medical professional, I'm going to make the assumption he has pretty good eyesight. I rarely like to assume things, but since he's making rounds, it's likely pretty good. What I'm getting at, is he's probably better off with the 13" over the 15" anyways, as he'll have no issues seeing the smaller screen, and it will be much easier for him to carry around. The text will also be a bit clearer and sharper on the smaller 13", because it has a higher pixel density. I think text readability will be very important to him given the line of work. And since he's making rounds and seeing many patients, he'll be "pausing" his use of the laptop often, meaning overheating will likely never be an issue for him. Most of his long running chores would be after work, like studying medicine. Those would be very easy tasks for any of these machines to handle without getting hot. I think the only consideration at this point would be the numpad. You get a numpad on the 15", and not on the 13". Many people don't care about it really, but you might want to find out if that would bother him or not. If he plugs in a lot of numbers it might be a thing to consider.

I've had my work laptop plugged into power basically 24/7 for over 2 years now, and it doesn't even have a battery protection feature, so it's staying pegged at 100%. When I go to use it on battery power, it still lasts as long as when I first got it. Congrats on the getting the book2 pro 360, it's an awesome machine. Be patient the first couple of weeks, there will be a lot of updates that get installed, so it will run a little hot and fans will kick on here and there. Check for Windows Updates and check for Samsung updates via the Samsung Update app oftern. After the first couple of weeks go by, it gets very stable and you'll rarely hear the fans kick in anymore. Also, make sure Dolby Atmos is enabled, it makes a HUGE difference. I think on the book2 it is enabled by default, but you might want to double check it when you get it. Happy to help with any questions once you get it.

Lots of good information as usual. Just a couple of things I don't agree with. The choice of the aspect ratio is likely not because of battery life but mainly cost. They don't need to move from 15.6 to 14.6. The could make a 15in screen which would be a custom one, just like the S8 ultra one is. It would cost more, a cost that can be more easily absorbed by an android tablet than by a Windows laptop. By the way 15in 16:10 would be exactly the size of the S8 ultra bezels included. They could reduce the chin to avoid increasing the footprint, but that would require a re-engineering of the whole body, not cheap, again. Something Apple can more easily do with their prices. They should definitely increase the resolution, they could go with 2560x1600p on the 15in (like the S7FE) and 2016X1350 like the thinkpad x1 nano. Great compromise. And they could easily offset the battery life impact by increasing the battery to 70-80wh, that would add less than 100gr, maybe just 50gr... (when they moved from 30wh to 75wh on the Notebook 9 from 2017 to 2018 the weight increase was just 200gr....) I would honestly take more resolution over OLED any day... Honestly I don't even think OLED is the right choice if this is to be a productivity laptop where the screens stays on for 8 hours or more straight...I don't think I'll buy a new pc before Windows 10 end of life in 2025, so hopefully by then the Book 360 will be good enough to replace both my 2017 samsung laptop and my desktop....

Hi, thanks for stopping by! I use the GB2 Pro 360 pretty much every day, and have it since launch. I also used last year's GB pro 360 for about a year without any real issues. The biggest problem I faced was I lost the ability to login with the fingerprint scanner and PIN for a bit due to a bad update I guess, but it was an easy fix. I think a lot of folks are grabbing this laptop between the hinges, which I don't recommend at all. I think I mention it in a 10 Tips and Tricks video I put out a while back. Basically, when you pick something up this thin, you want to grab it by where the touchpad is or near one of the 2 hinges, instead of right in the middle of the hinges. The screen is so super thin, that I can see it getting cracked if too much pressure is used when grabbing it between the 2 hinges. I think that's what's happening to a lot of folks that are complaining about cracked screens. This machine is super thin, it does need to be handled with some care.

I had the graphite version, 15 inch. Definitely a fingerprint magnet. Surprising to me, the screen resolution was fine while drawing (that's big, because drawing you would be holding it closer than when using as a normal laptop). I expected to not like the screen resolution, but the screen was gorgeous! I had no complaints at about overall functionality, speed, etc. Even the most demanding art programs I have (i.e., rebelle 5 - a real media simulation painting program) ran fantastic. I wasn't a fan of the keyboard. It just can't compare to a good lenovo laptop keyboard. I had a weird issue where hitting shift caused capslock to turn on. At least I think that is what was happening. Very strange. I did end up returning mine though. The reason why is simple - by default, you cannot customize the pen. It's important to note that you can use alternate pens, ones that have a button (or two) plus an eraser. I.e., the pen from the conceptd 7 or 9, or the hp zbook x2 g4 pen, or the Wacom One pen. Pen pressure and accuracy is great. But the side button is set to Air Command. You can turn off Air Command, but have to buy a 3rd party program to re-program the side button (i.e.: Tablet Pro Pen Tool). This works better in some programs than others. Overall, though, it's a buggy experience. Samsung should be giving us options to change pen settings. Even my old lenovo from like 2014, and "penabled" laptops I had before that allowed you to customize pen buttons and pen pressure. All of these laptops, including hte galaxy book2 pro 360, are all built on the same underlying wacom pen technology. For any artists interested in the tablet... tablet pro pen tool really is a life saver. A huge benefit is on screen keys. This can do a lot to negate the negative of not being able to reliable customize the pen. I'm choosing to buy something more focused on artwork (I ordered a used hp zbook x2 g4). The hp laptop gives full ability to customize the pen, much like a wacom device. If for some reason it doesn't work out, I'll go all in on a mobile studio pro. However, as long as you are OK using on-screen buttons and don't need a pen with an eraser or a reliable side button, the galaxy book2 pro 360 is a fantastic tool. For future iterations of this... I completely agree that they need to have 1440p on this screen. I also hope they give better controls with the pen drivers.

Coz if I am to make a decision "Opinion of the Expert" is my first option any suggestions?

@@henrywahlang3198 If you're a patient person, I would suggest waiting it out. So next year's will definitely have Intel 13th gen, these laptops are always one of the first to get the latest Intel chipsets. However, we have no clue yet as to how good the performance will be compared to 12th gen, so it's a waiting game. The main reason I recommend waiting if you can is because we'll likely see a higher resolution option, instead of just getting the 1080p option we have now. It looks nice, but 1440p would look so much nicer. If you can wait, I'd wait.

Thank you so much for the video.. I just didn't get that SSD part. Does it have a second free slot? And also how much SSD can I put inside it without causing problems? (Can I add 4Tb of SSD in the future maybe??!). Thank you!

Hi, thank you so much for watching! For the 13" model, there is no free open slot. You would have to replace the original SSD with a larger one if you wanted to upgrade. For the 15" model, you have one additional free slot that is 2230 size. The main slot that already has an SSD is 2280 size. Both slots support Gen 4, so you can pick up one of the new lightning fast SSD's and it will support it. As far as size limit goes, I don't think there really is one. You should be fine installing the biggest SSD you can find, 4TB shouldn't be a problem.

Hi, thanks for stopping by, and my apologies for the super slow reply. Took a little break from youtube to do a family move. It's great for programming, that's what I do for a living. .Net, SQL Server, Azure, Data modeling, it can handle all of it. It will get a little warm when you compile and run a bunch of site via IIS or Apache, but nothing out of the ordinary. It's a good machine once it gets all of it's updates, which usually takes about 2 weeks for them to trickle in.

Hi, thanks for watching! The difference between the 2 is pretty drastic. You don't get any of those cool features on the gb2 pro 360 I'm afraid, and the overall responsiveness is less on the laptop as well. You get the usual air command pop up menu, but there's not nearly as many options as the galaxy tabs or phones. It's still a good experience compared to other comouter pens though.

The deal breaker for me, and I have last years, is the screen resolution for the 15-inch version. It is simply a poor decision by Samsung and although it no doubt knocked $50-100 off the price, a 2.5K (prefer 4K) would have been a far better choice. With OLED we have the pentile arrangement of the pixels that make it less than a 1080p LCD panel and it is quite noticeable. No 90Hz was not a surprise last year, but in 2022 that is a major miss. It would be easy to have a switch to move between 60 and 90Hz for those wanting greater battery life. I hope that the battery life has improved as I have never broken 6hrs SOT and that is just doing basic stuff like browsing and office stuff. I have the brightness around 80% due to PWM and I prefer higher brightness on OLED. The constant whining of the fan and the heat were other cons. I def would not pay full price for this. Luckily this was a flop in sales due to massive software issues at launch so I got a month old one for under half price so I can live with the negatives at £560.

Appreciate your insight and for you watching. I get where you're coming from, I really do. I was hopeful we'd have higher res options as well, though I do like the screen a lot, it could be even better with a few more pixels. Battery life on the latest model is very good though, no complaints in that area with this year's model. £560 seems like a very reasonable price, that makes it easier to to stomach, lol.

Howdy, thanks for stopping by! No, not really. It does stay pretty hot the first couple of weeks while a bunch of updates happen in the background, but it's pretty good after that. Web browsing, working docs, stuff like that doesn't get it hot at all. The only tasks that will get it really cooking is gaming and video rendering, but that's to be expected.

Hey, thanks for stopping by! It's pretty good, but certainly not the best option out there. I used for my edits using Davinci Resolve for over a month while my desktop PC was down, and it worked pretty good. You'll definitely want to use proxies with 4K content though, it will chug along pretty slow otherwise. But all in all, it's pretty good.
