What a deal
If you're gaming the 4050 is useless. Then again if you're gaming why are you buying a Samsung laptop.

well, I think it is a good price for a beautiful and powerful computer, especially if you get as well the 10% of cashback between CC cashback and well-known sites. Still it may not be for you.

Who said he was being sarcastic?

Can anyone comment on battery life?

I'm considering upgrading from a Galaxybook Pro 360, but am somewhat scared of what the battery life is on the galaxybook3 ultra with dedicated GPU and 3K display?
I own this and compared to an Ultrabook with a low power CPU, the battery life is noticeably worse, even in quiet mode and while just browsing and doing light tasks. Obviously heavier tasks in performance mode would make the battery life even shorter. I still really love the laptop though, but if I were to make two revisions in a GB5U, it would be a bigger battery, and a smaller track pad that is more responsive.

If you don't game or need a powerful CPU, and you want better battery life, the GB3Pro is a better option.

How is the 4070 version compared to an Asus G14 w/ 4060?
Mostly interested in keeping the laptop docked at home +gaming competitively with occasional portability.

My GalaxyBook 2 was so dead with limited usage that I don't see these as a viable laptop. May be when they are on fire sale but even then, I would buy extended protection.

The price would have been good if the screen was less glossy just like the book 4 ultra and if it was also touchscreen.
I will hold for now until the price drops further or when the the Book 4 Ultra goes down in price.

This laptop was briefly down to $914+tax open box excellent at Best Buy and I got it (like new).

I am very happy with this laptop vs Asus zenbook 14.5 (120Hz OLED) and Acer Swift Edge (4K OLED) that I also have in my family.

1. Samsung is much quieter on daily tasks.

2. After months spent working on each of three above, Samsung OLED feels much better on my eyes. No flickering and text feels sharper. Possibly their pixels are positioned differently.

Samsung OLED is comparable to S9 Ultra tablet that I also have and better than OLED alternatives I tried.

P.S. The screen IS glossy, no touch, and doesn't open up 180 like Asus.

I agree with the screen on this laptop. It is quite frankly incredible compared to screens on any laptop I've had. It is much better, IMO, than my Galaxy Tab S8 ultra (which is also great). It gets brighter and has better overall image quality. To be fair you don't really realize this until you compare them side by side. My only critique is that it doesn't get as bright as an MBP16, and the reflectivity is a little high in a bright room. Aside from that, zero complaints.

Is there an online review about how bad the glossy screen is? I assume it is non-usable in the bright day outside (or a direct light source behind you).

100% brightness overcomes reflections in almost all situations for me.
