SAMSUNG Galaxy Book Pro Intel Evo Platform Laptop Computer 15.6" AMOLED Screen 11th Gen Intel Core i7 Processor 16GB Memory 512GB SSD Long-Lasting Battery, Mystic Blue

I am not a tech wizard by any stretch. I am 78 and have used PC's for 40 years in business applications, now I am retired and spend most of my time on a desktop for various and sundry activities. I wanted a light laptop to mirror what I have on my desktop to have with me for travel and other sundry uses.I have only had this for about 2 weeks and have loaded all of the info that I want to mirror from my desktop and found it easy to do so. The display is gorgeous! It is also plenty fast for my purposes (I'm not a gamer).Of course the battery life hasn't panned out to be not exactly near the top of what is claimed (based on my usage) but is a good 'day's worth'; about 14 hours for me which will work well for having it on my future transatlantic flights without having to plug it in on the airplane (but I probably will anyway). And, if I were still working, it would certainly last all day for meetings and such, and then some to get home and charge.It is super lightweight and I'm very happy that I bought it.. I've become a Samsung fan as I also have the Galaxy 6 tablet and have just ordered a Samsung Galaxy S21 phone.

If you are looking for a high-powered laptop for a reasonable price, this might be a good choice. The screen is magnificent. The fingerprint reader works great. The laptop is blazing fast. The keyboard is large and comfortable to use and includes a numeric keypad. The laptop powers on when the cover is lifted. The backlit keyboard comes on and off based on the ambient room light. It's the lightess and thinnest laptop I've ever seen.Many of these features have been highlighted in other reviews but one that hasn't is the downloadable user's manual. This is by far the best one I've ever seen. It's logically laid out and deals with all the laptop's features as well as key Windows features. Each feature is described and includes step by step instructions on how to access and customize the feature. If you are like me and get overwhelmed by all the customization choices on a Windows laptop, I think you will find the manual to be extremely helpful.This laptop isn't cheap but compared to laptops with similar features I think it is a great buy.

I got a new router at the same time I bought this laptop. I have 200mbps internet service and this computer/router combo gets 200+ wirelessly. The solid state drive, 16 gig of ram and the i7 processor gives me the speed I wanted. I am extremely happy with my computer. I've only been using it a couple of days, but it seems like the battery charge is going to last me 10-12 hours. I'm using this computer on a desk. I won't be moving it much at all. It seems a little flimsy; there is some flex to the screen. I'm not worried about the flimsy aspect since I'm not going to be moving it around much. It's a great system for me.

I've been using the laptop for some time, and overall I pretty like it except for one issue that is sure to be a deal breaker for some people.I'll start with the good things first. This laptop is ridiculously light. Even after some time of using, I would still be shocked by how light the laptop is everytime I picked it up. If you will be on the go for most of the time, this machine is perfect.Next up, the keyboard and touchpad. I dont really know how to describe the keyboard feel, but you sure will not be disappointed. as for the touchpad, its ok, nothing spectacular. But the size of the trackpad is very big, allowing for a more comfortable use. I'll give it a pass.One of the best features of this laptop is the screen, but ironically is also what most people would be complaining. The colors of the amoled screen is ridiculous, and it is great for watching movies and other stuff. However, the screen is only a full hd. Although i was hoping for at least a 2k, you know I'm not complaining simply for how good it looks.Ports: I never thought that i would need to label this as an advantage, but it indeed is. This machine packs a HDMI and full size USB-A into the slim body. Not something you see very often today.And now the bad things, and it would say it is not necessarily a design fault, but rather a compromise for having a laptop at this weight. The chassis of the laptop is simply just too soft and thin. Here are some real world problems i face when using the GBP.when i pick up the laptop in a closed orientation, sometimes i could click the trackpad. Yes, from the bottom of the chassis. You also cannot comfortably use it while it is on your lap, cause if you apply to much force on the side the trackpad will also click. Also, when typing, if you press the keys down too hard, you will bend the chassis.So overall would I recommend the Galaxy book Pro? I would say yes, but only if:you are willing to sacrafice some build quality for weight and portablityif you want to stay in the samsung ecosystem and don't find the flexible chassis a big issue.You want a powerful windows ultrabook and portability is absolute top priority.You really like vibrant colors and will be consuming a lot of media on the device.

Battery had reached end of life. Didn't work. Contacted Support and only thing to be done was send it back to Samsung and try to solve it there. They shouldn't be selling something that doesn't work

The computer was as good as new, very light weight and compatible. Gave me my money's worth.

The display and ultra-portability certainly outweigh any negatives. The touchpad is too big for my liking and can register false clicks but that is the trend the industry is moving in. It is because your palm may be resting on the touchpad itself. Other than that, no issues and blazing fast. The display is unbelievable for the resolution. The only thing I can think that might beat this is the Dell XPS 15" 9510 with 3.5K OLED but that's not even available yet. Highly recommend this unit. It has made my life a little bit easier. Also on this unit there is NO TOUCHSCREEN. The 360 has it NOT the Pro.
