Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 13 Review: Lightweight 2-in-1 laptop with stylus input and
OLED display
Sophisticated. Weighing only 1,040 g, the Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 scores points with an Alder Lake CPU,
Thunderbolt 4, and very good battery life. Positive: The laptop is completely silent when required. The
OLED touchscreen can be used both with the fingers as well as with the included S-Pen.

Convertible / 2-in-1 Intel Intel Evo Thunderbolt Touchscreen Windows

The Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 is a slim, portable 2-in-1 laptop that weighs just 1,040
g and is the convertible version of the recently reviewed Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro. The
2-in-1 laptop doesn't differ much from its predecessor in terms of looks. The changes
(Alder Lake processor instead of Tiger Lake) are more focused towards the internals.
Competitors for the Galaxy Book2 Pro include devices like the Lenovo ThinkPad X1
Titanium Yoga G1, the Fujitsu LifeBook U9311X, and the Dynabook Portégé X30W-J.

Case: Samsung chooses metal for the Galaxy Book2 Pro 360
AD

NP930QED

The Galaxy Book's gray-black (graphite) metal case has smooth, matte surfaces. The sleek
and elegant laptop doesn't have any flashy design features, but its slim exterior is enough
to make it look eye-catching. The integrated battery (screwed, not glued), and the rest of
the hardware are accessible after removing the bottom cover.

The laptop doesn't show any manufacturing flaws. The gaps are accurate, and there are no
material protrusions. The lightweight construction comes at a price, however. The base
unit and the lid can be warped; the base unit can be pressed inwards at its edges. The
hinges keep the screen firmly in place, but it does wobble a bit. Opening the lid with one
hand is possible.

The Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 NP930QED weighs about 1,040 g. The Fujitsu LifeBook
U9311X also weighs similarly. The Dynabook Portégé X30W-J, on the other hand, remains
just under the 1,000 g mark. The Samsung laptop is ahead of these two when it comes to
being compact. The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga G1 is bigger and heavier than the
competition.

Connectivity: The Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 comes with

Thunderbolt 4

The number of available interfaces is modest. The laptop offers a combo audio jack and
three USB-C ports (1x Thunderbolt 4, 2x USB 3.2 Gen1). The latter are used to supply the CES 2023 | Gigabyte

Communication
The Wi-Fi transfer rates determined under optimal conditions (no other Wi-Fi devices
nearby, short distance between laptop and server PC) are excellent and correspond to the
capabilities of the built-in Wi-Fi chip (Intel AX211; 802.11 ax).

A Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 variant with LTE or a 5G modem is not available. Users will have to
resort to the predecessor if they need this as it comes in a variant with a 5G modem.
Samsung's website has it listed if you are interested.

Security
The convertible comes with a fingerprint scanner to provide secure biometric access.
Alternatively, Windows Hello can be used to access the device securely. In addition, a
Trusted Platform Module (2.0) is also onboard.

Accessories
Besides the usual documents (warranty information and Quick Start guide), the laptop
comes with the S-Pen stylus. 

Maintenance
The interior is accessible after removing the bottom cover. Four screws are hidden under
the four rubber feet (plugged in, not glued), and they need to be removed. After that, the
bottom cover needs to be removed carefully (!) — it's quite tight and can be bent easily.
Once this is done, the SSD (PCIe Gen 3), the fan, the speakers, and the battery become
accessible.

In Germany, Samsung includes a two-year warranty with this 13.3-incher. A two-year

warranty extension costs 89 Euros (~US$94).

Input devices: The Samsung convertible supports stylus input

Keyboard
The smooth keys of the backlit chiclet keyboard have a short travel and a clear pressure
point. The resistance provided by the keys is acceptable, and the keyboard doesn't yield
during typing. The three-stage key illumination is controlled via a function key. Overall,
Samsung delivers a keyboard that is suitable for everyday use.

Touchpad
A multitouch-capable ClickPad (approx. 11.4 cm x 6.7 cm) acts as a mouse replacement. Its
smooth surface makes it easy for fingers to glide on it. It also responds to inputs in the
corners. The pad offers a short travel and a clear pressure point.

Galaxy Book2 Pro 360: Input devices

Touchscreen
The touchscreen supports ten touch points, and it responds to inputs quickly. It can be
operated through touch inputs as well as with the included S-Pen. The latter weighs just
under 8 g and fits well in the hand. The pen attaches magnetically to various parts of the
case. However, the device doesn't have a slot for the stylus.

Samsung S-Pen

Display: Deep blacks thanks to OLED

The glossy OLED touchscreen display (13.3-inch, 1,920x1,080

pixels) provides excellent contrast and black levels as well as
fast response times. The brightness level (375 cd/m²) is
good. The maximum brightness is slightly lower on battery
power at 322 cd/m².

The brightness control of the OLED panel is achieved by

dimming individual lines within the displayed screen
content. This happens at brightness levels of 90% and below
at a frequency of 60 Hz. This effect is similar to the well-
known PWM flickering, but it's not directly comparable.
While a low PWM frequency could trigger headaches and/or
eye problems in sensitive users, this doesn't necessarily have
to occur in the case of the method employed here. Pixelgrid

The display shows a very good color reproduction out of the

box - the color deviation is within the desired range. The
display doesn't suffer from a blue tint either. The color-
space coverage using the Standard color profile is pleasing.
The sRGB and DCI-P3 color spaces are covered up to 100%,
and the Adobe RGB color space is covered up to 97%. The
color-space reproduction can be adjusted towards one of
the three color spaces using the preinstalled Samsung
settings software.

Display Response Times

ℹ Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times
can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles
should pay special attention to fast response times.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called
Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said
frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering
altogether.

The display backlight flickers at 59 Hz (Likely utilizing PWM) Flickering
detected at a brightness setting of 90 % and below. There should be no
flickering or PWM above this brightness setting.

The frequency of 59 Hz is very low, so the flickering may cause eyestrain and
headaches after extended use.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display.
If PWM was detected, an average of 19508 (minimum: 5 - maximum:
3846000) Hz was measured.

Performance: Alder Lake CPU is unable to reach full performance in the Galaxy

With the Galaxy Book2 Pro 360, Samsung has a portable 2-in-1 laptop in its lineup that
offers enough processing power for office and Internet applications.

Test conditions
The laptop has four manufacturer-specific performance profiles — High Performance,
Optimized, Quiet, and Silent — which can be toggled between via the "Fn" + "F11" key
combination. The battery tests and benchmarks were carried out using the "Optimized"
profile.

High Performance Optimized Quiet Silent

Power Limit 1 20 watts 20 watts 10 watts 10 watts

Power Limit 2 45 watts 45 watts 35 watts 30 watts

Processor
The Core i7-1260P processor (Alder Lake) is comprised of four performance cores (Hyper-
Threading, 2.1 to 4.7 GHz) and eight efficiency cores (no Hyper-Threading, 1.5 to 3.4 GHz).
This results in a total of 16 logical CPU cores.

The Cinebench R15 benchmark's multithread test is processed briefly at high clock rates (P
cores: 4 to 4.1 GHz, E cores: 3.2 GHz), after which the clock speeds drop a bit (P cores: 3.5
to 3.9 GHz, E cores: 2.9 to 3.1 GHz). The single-thread test is run at 2.2 to 4.7 GHz (P cores)
and 1.2 to 3.5 GHz (E cores), respectively. Clock rates are considerably lower on battery
power.

All in all, the benchmark results aren't satisfactory. Although the CPU can counter short-
term load peaks with a lot of computing power, it falls short of its capabilities on the
whole especially during prolonged load. The power limits have been set relatively low in
order to ensure sufficient cooling for the CPU. The processor isn't built for the slim case of
the Galaxy Book2 Pro 360.

Multithread (plugged in) Single-thread (plugged in)

We verify if the CPU Turbo is consistently used when plugged in by running the Cinebench
R15 benchmark's multithread test in a loop. It's possible to maintain high clock rates only
for a short time. The results, and therefore the CPU's operating speeds, drop significantly
within the first seven runs followed by a continuous fluctuation of the clocks. The P and E

consistent performance development.

DPC latency
The standardized latency monitor test (web browsing, 4K video playback, high-load
Prime95) showed irregularities with DPC latencies. The system does not seem to be
suitable for real-time video or audio editing. Future software updates could bring
improvements or even worsen performance.

Storage
The system drive is a PCIe Gen 3 SSD (M.2 2280) from Samsung that delivers good transfer
rates. The storage space (256 GB) is rather poor for a 1,500-Euro (~US$1,573) laptop.
Furthermore, Samsung could have definitely opted for a PCIe Gen 4 drive for the Galaxy
Book2 Pro 360. 

An SSD serves as system drive.

Graphics card
The integrated Iris Xe Graphics G7 96EU GPU is unable to maintain its maximum clock rate
of 1,400 MHz for a prolonged period of time. The GPU executes The Witcher 3 test at
fluctuating clock rates that drop over the course of the test (750 to 1,150 MHz). The "High
Performance" profile provides slightly higher clock speeds. The benchmark results are
below the average that has been determined so far for this GPU.

Gaming performance
The 2-in-1 device isn't a gaming laptop. Nevertheless, the laptop brings quite a few games
smoothly onto the screen at low resolutions and low settings. Titles with moderate
hardware requirements will allow you to play at higher settings.

In order to verify whether the frame rates remain largely constant over a prolonged period
of time, we let The Witcher 3 run for about 60 minutes at Full HD resolution and at
maximum quality settings without moving the character. The GPU's fluctuating clock rates
are reflected in the fluctuating frame rates. The "High Performance" profile improves this
behavior.

Repeating The Witcher 3 test at reduced settings (1,366x768 pixels, medium) using the
"High Performance" profile shows that playable frame rates can be achieved on a
sustained basis. However, the rates drop from an initial 50 fps to about 40 fps after a few
minutes. Higher frame rates would require even more reduction of graphics settings
and/or the resolution.

Noise emissions
In everyday use (office, Internet), the fan is usually idle and silence prevails. A maximum
sound pressure level of 33.9 dB(A) is reached under load — this noise level is hardly worth
mentioning. A completely silent operation can be achieved with the "Silent" profile but at
the expense of processing power.

Temperature
The case temperatures remain in the green range in everyday use (office, Internet). The
laptop heats up noticeably under load (stress test). The CPU temperatures reach the red
zone at times here. Correspondingly, the CPU clock rate is lowered significantly during the
course of the test.

Stress test
The CPU (1,000 MHz) and GPU (600 to 1,000 MHz) run at
low clock speeds at the beginning of the stress test (Prime95
and FurMark run for at least an hour). The rates drop to their
respective minimum possible speeds quite quickly. Our
stress test routine represents an extreme scenario. We use
this to check whether the system remains stable under full The Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 in the

Speakers
The stereo speakers produce decent sound that lacks bass. We recommend using
headphones or external speakers for a better audio experience.

Battery life
The Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 achieves runtimes of 9:40 hours and 14:35 hours in our Wi-Fi
test (accessing websites via a script) and video test (playing the short film Big Buck Bunny
(H.264 encoding, Full HD in a loop), respectively. The laptop's power-saving features are
disabled during both tests, and the display brightness is set to about 150 cd/m². In
addition, the wireless modules are disabled during the video loop test.

In principle, the Samsung laptop delivers very good battery runtimes. However, we see
that the Tiger Lake-based competitors achieve similar or partly better endurance rates
with smaller battery capacities. In other words, the Galaxy Book2 isn't really that good in
terms of watt-hours. A direct comparison with the Tiger Lake predecessor of our current
review sample illustrates this — that device gets an average of 25% better battery life out
of an identical battery.

The battery has a capacity of 63 Wh

“
+ Power Delivery
Samsung delivers a quiet, portable work device with the Galaxy
Book2 Pro 360, but its chosen hardware configuration seems a bit half-baked. + low noise development
+ silent operation possible
A Core i7-1260P processor, 16 GB of RAM (LPDDR5, dual-channel mode), and a 256 GB
+ good battery life
SSD equip the device for office and Internet use. Good: The laptop always runs quietly,
and it can also operate silently, if needed, with reduced processing power. It barely heats
up in everyday use, but it does so noticeably under load.
Cons
The Core i7 responds to short load peaks with a lot of processing power, but it's forced to
- glossy display
take things more slowly during prolonged load. In general, it constantly remains below its
- OLED flickering
capabilities. Basically, the Alder Lake-P CPU was designed for a different class of devices.
To be able to cool it sufficiently in the slim Galaxy Book2, the processor is operated at - soldered RAM (not

lower power settings. expandable/exchangeable)

- little storage space
The built-in OLED touchscreen display (13.3-inch, Full HD) offers excellent black levels, and
- only one PCIe 3 SSD
it covers the DCI-P3 color space completely. This is accompanied by stable viewing angles,
- CPU falls short of its capabilities
good color reproduction, fast response times, and sufficiently high brightness.
Unfortunately, the panel has a glossy surface. - heats up significant under load
- no USB-A port
The Dynabook Portégé X30W-J could be a good alternative to the Samsung convertible. It
offers two Thunderbolt 4 ports, better battery life, and a touchscreen display with a matte
surface. Another option would be the original Galaxy Book Pro 360, which is still available.
The predecessor of our current review sample offers less computing power but much
better battery life. In addition, that model also comes in a version with a 5G modem.

Price and availability

At the time of writing, you can find the Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 in Best Buy's
online store for around US$1,250 with the Core i7-1260P, 8 GB RAM, and a 256 GB SSD. If
you need more storage space, Samsung's online store lets you choose the maxed-out
version that comes with 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD for around US$1,450.

I've been fascinated with technology ever since I got my very first Android
smartphone, which was quite a while ago. The power packed into such a small
footprint still amazes me. Learning to program made my understanding of
technology deeper, and at the same time, it expanded my interest to the area of desktop computers
and laptops. All this led me to enjoy reading and watching reviews of new devices, and that's how I
stumbled upon Notebookcheck. I immediately found their reviews to be very comprehensive, and
luckily, I've even had the chance of translating them since 2019. When it comes to the huge field of
technology, I'm currently also interested in specializing in Java programming.
