The Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro 16'' with Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, 16 GB RAM and 1 TB storage offers me an impressive combination of performance and functionality. Below we discuss some important aspects of this laptop.
One of the most striking features is the good battery life. With home garden and kitchen use, the laptop lasts more than a working day. Note that you then turn down the brightness of the screen.
The design of the Galaxy Book5 Pro is both slim and stylish. I think it is one of the thinnest 16-inch laptops on the market. The aluminum casing exudes quality and offers durability. However, the laptop does feel a bit heavier. My old 17-inch laptop has about the same weight, but my work laptop a DELL 15-inch is a lot lighter.
Multi-control ensures that you can operate multiple Galaxy devices simultaneously with the keyboard and mouse of the laptop. Sharing files between devices is effortless with Quick Share, and Microsoft Phone Link lets users use Galaxy AI features like Circle to Search and Chat Assist on a larger screen. Although this can be very useful, I notice that I have hardly used it.
Thanks to the processor and 16GB of RAM, I can use heavier games, including Cities: Skylines with mods, without any problems. The graphics performance is also more than fine! Despite the fact that it is not a gaming laptop, I am very pleased with the performance.
Conclusion
A very nice laptop that can handle heavier games and processes. The screen feels very large, which I like. The battery lasts very well in terms of life. What I like less is the layout of the numpad. For years I have been used to a different layout, which often makes me miss the '0'.
