Samsung is the South Korean electronics giant behind Galaxy phones, and its laptops carry the same name as Galaxy Books. They're known for thin, light designs, vivid AMOLED screens on the Pro models and close links with Galaxy phones and tablets.

Choosing a Samsung laptop

The number in the name is the generation: Galaxy Book6 is the newest, and we still list Book5, Book4 and Book3 models. That matters more than the range name, because an older generation can mean a slower processor and less memory. The Galaxy Book3 360 from 2023 has 8 GB of memory, for example, while every Book6 we list has 16 GB or more.

The plain Galaxy Book is the everyday model, with a standard IPS screen. Galaxy Book Pro is the thin premium one, with a 120Hz AMOLED screen that looks far richer for films and photos. 360 in the name means the screen folds back into a tablet, and every 360 we list comes with Samsung’s S Pen for notes and sketching. Edge models, like the Galaxy Book4 Edge, use a Snapdragon chip for long battery life, with the same app caveats as other Snapdragon laptops.

Samsung’s biggest draw is the link with its phones. With a Galaxy phone you can share files in a couple of taps, reply to messages from the laptop and use a Galaxy Tab as a second screen. If you have an iPhone, those extras don’t apply, so judge a Galaxy Book on its specs alone.

The Galaxy Chromebook Go we list is an older 4 GB model with built-in mobile data, a simple machine for browsing and email wherever you are.

Frequently asked questions

Galaxy Book or Galaxy Book Pro?

The Pro, if screen quality matters. It's thinner and lighter, with a 120Hz AMOLED screen that looks much richer than the standard model's IPS panel. The regular Galaxy Book is a sensible everyday laptop for documents and browsing.

Do Samsung laptops work best with Galaxy phones?

They work with any phone, but a Galaxy phone or tablet unlocks extras such as quick file sharing, replying to messages on the laptop and using a Galaxy Tab as a second screen.

Does the Galaxy Book 360 come with a pen?

Every 360 and Pro 360 we list comes with Samsung's S Pen in the box, good for handwritten notes and sketching on the fold-back screen.

What is a Galaxy Book Edge?

A Galaxy Book with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, built for long battery life and Copilot+ AI features. Most apps run on it, but check older programs and games before you buy.
