I love this new laptop. I am able to use my screen extender that I have as well as my phone and have 3 extra screens with the battery power to do so. When I am not using my extra screens the battery lasts all day. I am able to take my laptop with me to school and work on it without the charger for an entire work shift. I like the quick share as well. The sound and anti glare for when I'm using my laptop outside is also great!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not Amazing

TLDR: Generally, I am disappointed to say the laptop is not amazing.
I had a version of this from a few generations ago and it doesn't feel like nearly the upgrade that it is on paper. It works fine once settings are changed to high performance, but certainly nothing to write home about. The Samsung software is buggy and often doesn't work correctly and something feels off about the track pad. Also, Samsung Notes AI features are not present on the galaxy book version of the software. Add this to the fact that you can't use Samsung Notes on a desktop anymore, and it leaves me questioning if it's worth continued investment in the Samsung ecosystem. If you can live without Samsung Notes, the answer is probably no. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a good cross platform option other than Samsung Notes, for now...
Pros: The screen is beautiful and writing/note taking is wonderful. The laptop is probably worth it on sale, but I wouldn't advocate for paying full price.

After having the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro 360, I gambled with the reviews and pulled the plug on this device. After using this laptop for almost 4 weeks, I can say that I find this laptop helpful for on the go activities. I got the Galaxy Tab s10+ for quick school work which is amazing if you need to type up a quick essay or discussion. The Galaxy Book5 pro 360 comes in handy if you need the extra freedom units to get work done. With the AMOLED technology in the screen, you can easily see the screen and not have to worry about anything blurry. One downside is the amount of ports given on the device and the absence of an ethernet port. I would've gone without the hdmi port as using my Galaxy Tab s10+ gets the job done quicker than needing to carry a cable I probably don't need to carry everywhere. For the wifi 7, as long as your in a good line of sight with an access point or the router itself you will get speeds so fast, your gamer sibling will wish to have at home on ethernet. In terms of the cpu, it is equivalent to the Intel Core I7 11th gen processor. The cpu gives you enough freedom units to do practically anything. I don't know much about Intel's arc graphics cards yet to know if it is any good for gaming but it is pretty dang good for watching shows and movies from. In terms of AI, I could've gone without at as I don't use copilot or bixby anyways. If you have more than 1 Samsung device with bixby enabled, I wish you luck because the bixby you want to talk to won't listen well and the device across the room with bixby will hear you loud and clear. Moving on to battery life, if you watch anything you can probably see about 10 hours of battery life before needing to plug in. I will suggest you enable the battery protection in the Samsung settings to get the full extent of the battery. This will help you down the road in about 5 to 7 years when it comes time to replace the battery. I have yet to replace the battery as it is nearly 4 weeks old. Protecting your battery early on will extend its life.
If you are doubting the Galaxy Book5 Pro 360 and aren't sure you want to take the gamble on it, this is your sign to take the chance. Much like the Galaxy Tab s10+ I find myself using the Galaxy Book5 Pro 360 at least twice a day sometimes 3 or 4 times. If you have a Samsung device that has an s pen, trust me you will find yourself using the s pen on this device as well.
Love it! It’s a sexy fast and does everything that is expected for a computer.

Couldn't Be Happier.

I know we've had 360 and touch technology for a while now however this is the first I've had the privilege to own. It has been a fantastic tool for everything I do. No lag or delayed buttons screen is just beautiful. The s pen is super responsive and handles well. Works amazing for using cricut software. I was even impressed with the speaker quality over my previous Samsung computer. I get about 10-15 hours of continuous use (that's including making word documents, running cricut, research, videos, and playing games) if it was just research and word documents battery would absolutely go farther! I even had to place an order for a second one because my husband fell in love with it.
It is a good PC... it does have some bugs like the auto-rotate fails once in a while, the S-pen menu is laggy when the button is pushed and the actions too, the battery doesn't last as long as predicted. Windows spotlight for the lockscreen doesn't work at all and other lockscreen options.
I've had my Galaxy Book5 Pro 360 for about a month. While I'm not getting the "all day battery" that was advertised, I am getting much more battery life than I was getting with my Book2. I love the massive amount of memory and speed of this laptop. It is perfect for what I need it for.
