Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro Review: Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro laptop was announced during the Unpacked event on February 1 and is available in three variants with starting price of Rs 1,31,990. We have got the top variant of the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro, which comes with a 13th Gen Intel Core i7 processor and 1TB of storage. The laptop has several changes when compared to its predecessor Galaxy Book2, but how exactly it performs in day-to-day life is something we are going to tell you in our detailed review.

Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro Review: Design

The Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro is made of aluminium. While this makes the laptop heavier, it feels more premium than its predecessor and has almost no flex on the screen and the chassis. However, it is still lighter when compared to other laptops, like MacBook Air, and also easy to carry. We have talked in detail about the design in our first impression and you can read more about it HERE.

Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro Review: Display

Unlike its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro comes with a more popular 16:10 screen size. We here are using the 14-inch model of the laptop. The South Koran tech major continues to use an AMOLED panel but the resolution has now been changed to 2880X1800 and it has a refresh rate of 120Hz. By default, the laptop will have a dynamic refresh rate that helps save battery. Also, the display has a peak brightness of 400 nits.

I watched some videos on YouTube and the picture quality was great. So it is going to be fun watching videos or movies on this laptop. The viewing experience will be enhanced by AKG Quad Speakers that support Dolby Atmos.

Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro Review: Battery and charging

The Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro comes with a 63Wh battery and supports super fast charging of 65W. During my usage, I found the battery life to be pretty good. The device can last for 7-8 hours with normal usage and I even worked on it for almost 9 hours, equivalent to the usual office shift hours. Charging is also decent, especially considering the portable socket that comes with the laptop.

Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro Review: Performance

The Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Pro comes with an Intel Core i7-1360P and did not stutter while surfing through the internet, even when playing videos on YouTube in the background. I could easily work for hours using over a dozen tabs opened and music playing on YouTube in the background. I even tried editing some videos on Clipchamp and the entire process was smooth. For that, I tried to find out how Samsung's ecosystem works and was simply impressed with it. I can very easily use the touchpad of the Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Pro to click and search for things or browse something using Chrome on the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra smartphone. Thumps up to Samsung for this.
