​-Great QLED Screen
-No USB Charging
-No Pen
-No 15" option
-2 in 1
-Heavier with great build quality
-Great value on sale
Pro 360
-SAMOLED - Touchscreen
-USB-C Charging
-Most feature packed
-2 in 1
-Included Pen
-Most Expensive
Pro
-AMOLED - NO Touchscreen
-USB-C Charging
-Clamshell
-Lightest, relatively speaking
-Great value if you need USB-C Charging

For me, the Pro is the best option with USB C charging (charge and send signal to monitor at the same time) that isn't more expensive because it is clamshell only. For me, I don't need another tablet / stylus device. The biggest downsides of the Pro seem to be poor audio and a chassis that flexes on the 15" model. I've heard the 13" seems more firm.

i7 is the better deal for $200 you get double the RAM, i7 has faster clocks and 50% more cache, and more GPU cores. RAM isnt user upgradable, so its better to get the 16GB now than wish you had it later

As for build quality, these rival $1000 laptops. Not the best but they are well above average.
I don't see an I7 option for 15". Am I missing something?

The 360 models rival $1000 laptops, but not the non-360. They should be ashamed of themselves for calling the non-360 "Pro", I tried it in person and haven't touched a laptop with such a cheap plastic chassis since the HP Pavilion I had in 2012. I know I sound dramatic but I was appalled lmao like if the ion and the alphas have metal bodies who was your target for a $1200 laptop with the body of your $300 competitors?

SOLDERED RAM. The deal breaker... everyone I know now says to get 16GB of RAM and stay away from 8GB systems.

RK had a 15% off and 10% off till a week or so back. Right now it's 3%. For the Samsung discount you can in after receiving the order and cite problems with damage to product or package it delay and mention 10% or 100 off.
