    @MarksTech Currently, it appears that the laptop is not fully optimized, particularly regarding power plans. Benchmark tests reveal that the Balanced Power plan delivers performance comparable to the Best Performance plan. Additionally, the Balanced Power plan results in significantly less heating of the PC than the Best Performance plan. Have you encountered high temperatures?

    Good review. Worth watching. A question. Where does Samsung place this Book 4 Edge in its lineup versus the Book4 Ultra, Pro360 and Pro? Is it considered a higher version, lower, what? Thanks. I have been considering the new Dell XPS 16 (I currently use an old 17), but thought I'd consider one of the 16" Book4's, maybe the 16" Book4 Edge, since I'll likely be getting a Samsung Galaxy s24 Ultra soon, and maybe that shared ecosystem might have some advantages.

    I watched KZread unplugged on my 16" (X1E-80) this morning for about 3 hours and only dropped about 20% battery. This is a huge step up from any Windows laptop that I tried (and returned) before. It took me a minute to get used to Windows after being on Mac's my whole life, but it feels pretty easy now. I really like the machine a lot overall. The S9 ultra (that I traded in for this) had WAY better speakers though. They aren't awful when you get used to their sound. But I agree that they are the worst part of the computer. Not nearly enough to be a deal breaker, though. I've never once had the fans turn on. Not sure why you were having that issue. Pretty sure this will be the first Windows laptop that I actually keep

    What I really don't understand is why the user experience is different. Of course, I have a 16-inch model, so there may be a difference in experience, but in my case, at least the battery guarantees more than 1 hour per 10% charge, and the fan does not work at all until I do heavy work. There certainly seems to be some element that creates a difference in experience.

    Concerning the touchpad; you can just double tap to simulate a click. That’s how I use the MacBook trackpad too anyway… the trackpad is very nice and accurate otherwise. Have you also tried turning on Dolby Atmos on the laptop? It doesnt turn the laptop into mac sound quality to the macbook's. but it still does sound better. Your review does seem to come with a ton of bias, the way you expres yourself.

    I honestly wonder if you just got a bad unit. I went with a base model Surface Pro X Plus. The performance is great for all casual computing, the battery lasts a long time, and the fans never turn on except for benchmarks and other super heavy workloads. I'd love for it to be thinner and lighter, but still ... it's basically the iPad Apple would make if they were as interested in empowering their users as they are in steering revenue to their iPadOS app store.

    How the heck are you getting only 4 hours of battery life? That's just ridiculously dismal. Even with my fairly heavy usage of web browsing (like 30+ tabs on Chrome + some video in background) I can get at least 6-7 hours of battery on my 14" Edge. The fan noise is also virtually inexistant. It's not great when compared to my 15" M2 Air's 11 hours, but only 4 hours would have me sending the laptop straight to the return centers. The 16" version of the Edge should theoretically be even longer since the battery capacity in it is also larger.

    Samsung is apparently having trouble moving their new Snapdragon line. Samsung and BestBuy currently have the -80 CPU series on sale for $350 off for the 14" and 16" models. That's a huge discount for a system that was just released a few weeks ago! I wanted to try one of these new Qualcomm systems and went with the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 (the 13.8" variant with the low end Snapdragon Plus CPU). I do not regret my choice. Thus far, the performance, battery life and ergonomics are great and, at $999, it was a much better deal than systems offered by the competitors. It was a close choice between the Microsoft Surface and the Lenovo 7x, but I believe I made the right choice for now. To date, I have zero complaints about the Surface Laptop 7.

    I just returned the PC today to Samsung. For a product at this price (84-100) the PC is unusable with DaVinci Resolve, Luminar Néo certain AI functions cause the PC to crash and you have to force it to shut down. Paying such a price for office use makes no sense. The PC is magnificent and so is the screen, but the total instability makes the experience of this PC more than disappointing. Classic usage works well. 16 GB of RAM is far too little! because as soon as you launch a large software the memory is used at 100%. Office yes, photo video and ai photo functions no!

And well, even if you are using MB for the past 15years, it got ARM treatment in 2021, and to this day, you can't connect 2 monitors to a MBA without closing the lid - something even the cheapest laptops can do
