Samsung Galaxy Book5 360

Released Feb 12, 2025$1,350 launch priceLaptop

Samsung's 15.6-inch Galaxy Book5 360 is a convertible with the Intel Core Ultra 7 256V (Lunar Lake), 16GB of LPDDR5X, a 512GB SSD and a 1920x1080 AMOLED touchscreen in a 1.46kg, 13.7mm body with a 68.1Wh battery. It launched in the US at $1,349.99; other markets also list a Core Ultra 5 226V, and the S Pen is sold separately in the US. It is separate from the 16-inch Galaxy Book5 Pro 360.

Pros

  • 360-degree hinge with a 15.6-inch touchscreen that works with the S Pen (sold separately in the US)
  • Well-calibrated AMOLED panel in review testing, with an average Delta E of about 1.2 and full sRGB and DCI-P3 coverage
  • About 16 hours in a 1080p YouTube streaming battery test in review testing; Samsung rates it at up to 31 hours of video playback
  • Slim 13.7mm, 1.46kg metal body with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, HDMI, USB-A, a microSD slot and Wi-Fi 7
  • Arc 140V graphics managed about 33 fps in Shadow of the Tomb Raider at Ultra and about 30 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 at medium settings, both at 1080p, in review testing

Cons

  • Full HD 60Hz panel is only about 141 ppi at 15.6 inches and glossy, and peak brightness measured about 396 nits in review testing (Samsung rates 370 nits typical, 500 nits HDR)
  • Sustained performance is limited: the chip throttled heavily under load and the fans were sometimes audible, around 43 dB on average, in review testing
  • In tablet mode the large bezels stand out and the fingerprint reader is harder to reach in review testing
  • The S Pen is sold separately in the US
