Customer Ratings & Reviews

Really glad I upgraded, a laptop like this should have me set for the next 5 years I would hope. I haven't had a new windows computer in about 8 years, and this was a big upgrade from the previous. The screen quality is amazing, the colors and contrast with HDR is pretty slick. I love being able to turn any website into an app on my desktop, the PhoneLink app that allows me to control everything on my Samsung phone from the laptop is also really cool. It has a builtin Copilot button for quick access to AI to get help, I like that. I switched from an Apple ecosystem to Samsung and having all my notes sync'd, and moving music between devices , it's all just pretty cool . There is probably hundreds of things I'm not utilizing but that is also another cool thing is there is always more to learn with these laptops . Also has a fingerprint reader, bonus. I also like the screensavers, it really shows off the dynamic display with a sort of color show.

I have had this Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro for several months now. It is lightning quick and does everything expected. I probably overpurchased for my needs. It is lightweight and appears to have a strong case. The screen is bright and the right size for my needs. Battery Life leaves a little to be desired.

Super fast, the screen quality is amazing, the keyboard is very user friendly, and it’s so lightweight compared to others with the same or less features

Excellent laptop! Easy to carry, great battery life.

i absolutely love this laptop. It is fast and the Screen is amazing with the OLED display. love how thin and slick it is.

Great Laptop! Fast, smooth, amazing OLED Display!!

Samsung - Galaxy Book5 Pro - Copilot+ PC - 16" 3K AMOLED Touch Summary: Svelte. Svunctional. Simply Svantastic. Use: My larger laptop was starting to become a burden lugging around when I needed to get some work done. That is what I needed - a laptop that would let me get up and away from my office to enjoy the outdoors, a coffee, or any where else I wanted to be while working. The larger laptop was designed to be gaming unit so it has more heft to support that workload. Nevermind the power supply required to use it plugged in after its very mediocre battery capacity runs out. I do have a smaller laptop with an equally thin profile. The screen on that unit is roughly half of the screen of this Samsung Galaxy Book5. The smaller unit also allowed me to bring any of my (100W) USB-C PD chargers, the screen was touch, and its battery life superb. My eyes are just no longer up to the task of using such a small screen. This is where the Samsung Galaxy Book5 shines. It offers me quite literally the best of all worlds much to my surprise. I am able to work on this laptop mobile anywhere for a full day PLUS on a single charge. Of course, I make use of various Windows power profiles for maximum effect. I do run 99% of my workload remote via Remote Desktop. I was assigned a work laptop, but the specs are so paltry and machine so unusable that I returned it to use the other units I own. Remote desktop allows me to do this without installing any company stuff. However, I did put this unit through some paces to see how well it would do. Please see the pros and cons I discovered while working with this unit for the time I've owned it (now a few weeks). If your needs are similar to mine, and you choose this unit - I hope you like it as much as I do. Pros: * Quality. The build quality is top notch! It FEELs well made. It FEELs substantial. It FEELs great to hold and use. * Svelte. As the title suggests, this unit is sexy. It competes with the best of laptops inspired by Microsoft's own wonderful Surface and Surface Book laptops. This unit is slim and light weigh. I don't even notice the difference between that and my Surface laptop despite the size difference between models. * Screen. The large screen is perfect for my eyes. I use a variety of laptops for different tasks. This is one of the most comfortable to use - but I suppose I should be surprised given it is a Samsung AMOLED. OLED blacks are just so crisp. Great contrast and the touch functionality offers the convenience I am accustomed to with my other laptops. The HD screen resolution works well for me. My desktop displays are all 4K - 4K on this would have been as hard as working with my smaller laptop's display. * Ports. Given the slim profile, one might expect a scarcity of ports. Well, its a reasonable expectation. Still, this unit comes with a USB-A 3.2 port, two USB-C (2, 2.2, Thunderbolt, PD) ports, HDMI, Micro-SD, and audio ports flanking each side of the laptop. * Touchpad. The touchpad is a bit obnoxious. I generally never use touchpads, but this one is growing on me. I'm not sure if its because of the large size, or what - but it definitely makes reaching and using mouse functions easier. It is super responsive and the gestures work great. * Performance. The i7 processor makes short work of general day to day use particularly when mobile. I don't have any complains. Couple with the processor is the ARC GPU. It IS entry level, but coupled with the intended purpose - works well. I was surprised to see that one of my favorite go-to games, World of Warcraft, played quite decently for regular questing, delves, and dungeons on default mode and at 90-100+ FPS. * Power. It does come with a power supply of its own. A standard USB-C 65W. The cable is fine. I used my own chargers, though. All 100W chargers that I use for all my devices. It works fine with them. * Battery. 25+ hours is stated on the marketing materials. I think that is easily attainable. I did my taxes, worked, browsed the web, etc. over several days and I still had charge at the end of the week. I kicked the unit into performance mode and, of course, that drained the battery fast. I really don't know if I would need to switch out of balanced or power efficiency except when I decide to play a little bit of WoW. Cons: * Bloatware. A common and recurring theme for all Windows laptops. Vendors have a bad habit of installing a bunch of stuff we don't need. Samsung is no exception here. We just don't need it all.

I’ve got to say, the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro is an absolute win for anyone who needs Windows but envies their Apple-using friends. Right out of the box, the build quality is fantastic. It’s slim, lightweight, and made from gorgeous aluminum. It definitely gives off pre-2022 air-y vibes. I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the 3K display since I was coming from a 4K screen on my previous Windows PC, but it’s been really impressive—sharp, vibrant, and I guess as my eyes age I couldn’t even tell what I was missing. Battery life has been fantastic too—I used it for about 5-6 hours straight during a flight and layover, and the battery barely took a hit. That’s way better than I expected. Performance-wise, this thing is pretty fast. The Core Ultra 7 has handled everything I’ve thrown at it, including huge Excel files and data-heavy tasks, without breaking a sweat. That said, this is NOT a gaming laptop. The integrated GPU is fine for light gaming, but if you’re looking for serious graphics power, this isn’t it. Now, the trackpad is amazing—smooth, large, and honestly one of the best I’ve used on a Windows laptop. The keyboard is solid too, though I do get a little lost sometimes since the keys are pretty short. My biggest gripe? The number pad layout is AWFUL! The 0 key is stuck under the 1, which constantly throws me off. I’ve already had to delete so many misplaced decimal points—it’s actually kind of a problem. I did test out the speakers, and while the Dolby Atmos spatial effects are cool, the sound is a bit thin, which is expected from such a slim laptop. I haven’t fully tested the Galaxy ecosystem features yet, but it looks like you can use a Galaxy Tab as a second screen, which has me seriously considering getting one. Overall, this is an amazing laptop if you want something powerful, premium, and portable. It’s not for gamers, but if you need a fast, sleek Windows laptop with a gorgeous display and killer battery life, this is easily a 5-star device.

I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro 16” for a bit now and I’m honestly really happy with it. The screen is the first thing that stands out — the AMOLED display looks incredible. Everything is sharp, colors pop, and it’s easy on the eyes even after long stretches. Performance has been great for what I need. It boots fast, apps open quickly, and I can have a lot going on at once without it slowing down. I haven’t noticed any lag when multitasking, and the storage size is more than enough so far. I also like how solid but still lightweight it feels for a 16-inch laptop. Battery life has been better than I expected, and the touchscreen is responsive and useful, not just a gimmick. Overall it feels like a well-made, premium laptop that actually delivers on what it promises. I’d definitely recommend it if you want something powerful with a really nice display.

I'm really ejoying the new laptop. -butterly smooth operation. -love the finger print unlock option -The display is amazing. -Seemless inegration with other Samsung tablets and phones is "sweet". -Powerful enough to hook up to my 49inch monitor with lots of screen split-window in window options. Love that I can share to my desktop wirelessly to my tablet wirelessly. -Easily accepts a 2TB micro SD card marking this one very light weight filing cabinent for all of my work files and media. -Backlit keyboard and 10 key number pad are must haves for my needs and appreciated. Smallest charging puck I've ever had for a laptop. Very compact and light weight package for travelling. This was a good purchace.

This Samsung laptop is a new entry into the realm of Microsoft Co-pilot AI machines. More significantly, it’s in a sub-group of those laptops designed to be lightweight and very energy efficient. In the Windows world that’s comprised of units powered by Snapdragon (ARM based) or the new Intel Core Ultra (x86 based) processors. It appears that Intel has succeeded in building a processor as miserly with power use as the Snapdragon and as powerful as well. Both processors boot quickly and efficiently run programs. However, an Intel based laptop such as the Galaxy Book5 Pro has one big advantage over Snapdragon powered devices. ALL Window software and games will run, and all device drivers will work. That’s unfortunately not the case with the Snapdragon processors. There’s a lot to like about the new 16” Book5. The build-quality is superb. I don’t think anyone can top Samsung in this category. This laptop is super thin and light with a sexy, minimalist look. It’s all metal, no plastic, and the fit and finish is without flaw. The AMOLED 3K touchscreen is absolutely beautiful and bright. It has a 120 Hz refresh and 120% color volume. Considering its amazingly thin 12.5 MM form, there’s a good selection of ports. One HDMI 2.1, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, one USB 3.2 Type-A, a Micro SD slot, and a headphone/mic jack. For connectivity there is WIFI 7 and Bluetooth 5.4. The quad speaker system is much better than most laptops and has Dolby Atmos capability. The Intel Core Ultra 7 Series 2 (Lunar Lake) processor can be equipped with 16 or 32 GB of LPDDR5X RAM (not upgradable) and has the latest Intel ARC graphics onboard (no discrete graphics available). The SSD is a 1TB PCIe 4, and there is an open M2 slot to add an additional drive. The charger is minimalist as well. Samsung provides a 65W fast charge adaptor block that’s less than 2”x2”x1” along with a 6’ USB C to C cable. This makes for a compact and easy to carry package to charge the 76 Watt-hour battery. Samsung claims it offers up to 25 hours of battery life, but In real life usage, I found it lasts more like 8-10 hours with typical mixed use. As far as my preferences are concerned, there are some things I’d change. There’s no Windows Hello support since the camera system doesn't include infrared. The fingerprint sensor integrated into the start button works OK. but it’s still not as convenient as face recognition. I would prefer a standard SD reader rather than a mini to avoid needing a dongle. The keyboard is large and well-lit, but the keys have a short throw and minimal feedback. It’s taking me some time to get used to the feel and configuration. This is an AI/Copilot focused laptop. It’s going to shine when the neural processing sub-section boost of the Core Ultra chip has work to do. It’s also going to shine when you need long battery life. It will give you all-day use on a charge. Being a Samsung, it integrates flawlessly with other Samsung devices (phones, tablets, accessories). I have a Galaxy Tab Ultra, and I can use it wirelessly as a second screen and/or drag and drop items between the two. Intel ARC graphics is improving, but the Book5 Pro is not intended to be a gaming laptop. At 1080P resolution, it can run many of the latest games at 30 to 45 frames per second. This speed is not in the same category as high-end discrete graphics systems. However, for gaming, it’s leaps and bounds above Snapdragon based machines which just will not run many games old and new. If you’re a serious gamer or a creative professional who needs high end graphics power and rendering, this is not your machine. This laptop is designed for AI use and long battery life. It’s gorgeous, it has exception build quality, it’s very light and slim, and it’s nicely featured. It will breeze through all major tasks and applications while offering fast AI enhancements. It excels in these areas, and that’s what you’re paying for. Core Ultra processors are quite expensive, and that’s reflected in the price. If these strengths are a match to your needs and wants, the Samsung Book5 Pro is a solid choice.

I recently got my hands on the Samsung Galaxy Book5 Pro Copilot+ PC, and I have to say—it’s nothing short of spectacular. From the moment you open the lid, the 16" 3K AMOLED touchscreen takes your breath away. The colors are vibrant, the contrast is deep, and every image, video, and graphic pops with unparalleled clarity. Touch responsiveness is buttery smooth, making navigation and creative work an absolute joy. Under the hood, the Intel Core Ultra 7 processor paired with 16GB of memory ensures that everything—from heavy multitasking to intensive applications—is handled effortlessly. I’ve thrown everything at this machine: editing 4K video, running multiple design apps simultaneously, and even some casual gaming—and it handles it all without a hiccup. The 1TB SSD is a dream for anyone who needs speed and ample storage. Boot-up times are instantaneous, file transfers are lightning-fast, and there’s plenty of space to store all your projects, media, and software without ever worrying about running out. Samsung’s attention to detail in design is equally impressive. The laptop is sleek, lightweight, and finished in a classy gray that feels both professional and premium. The keyboard is comfortable for long typing sessions, and the touchpad is precise and responsive. What really sets this laptop apart is the Copilot+ integration, which enhances workflow with intuitive AI-driven assistance, making productivity smarter and more efficient than ever. For professionals, creatives, or anyone who values performance and style, this laptop is a game-changer. In short: The Galaxy Book5 Pro is a perfect blend of speed, power, and elegance. Samsung has truly raised the bar for what a premium laptop can offer. This isn’t just a device—it’s an experience.

Terrific laptop upgrade from my 5-year-old one! This new one has great speed, a screen image that rivals my TV, and enough storage to easily handle all my needs, not to mention how light weight it is! And the transition from my old one was so easy, thanks to the folks at Geek Squad. So glad to have Best Buy at my back!

I’m a student, and this is exactly what I needed for my homework and creative assignments. I’m not a computer expert, but I know enough to get by, and this laptop has been a great fit for my daily life. ​The "In-Between" Size I’ve always liked standard desktops because of the big screens, but obviously, they aren’t portable. This 16-inch screen is the perfect "in-between" size—it’s not too big and not too small. It gives me plenty of space for big projects but is still light enough to carry around campus all day. ​Touchscreen & Keyboard The screen is super clear and easy to see, which is a lifesaver for long study sessions. It’s also a touchscreen, so if I need to get to something quickly, I just touch it and keep moving. The keyboard is another highlight—it’s nice and soft, and the keys flow easily. It doesn’t have that loud "clicking and clacking" sound, making it very easy to handle in a quiet library. ​The "360" Dilemma I actually intended to buy the 360 version (the one that swivels into a tablet), but I realized after I left that I got this one instead. While I was debating spending the extra money to go back and get the 360, I’ve found that I’m actually really satisfied with this model. Even without the tablet flip, the touchscreen does everything I need it to do!

I love this laptop. It is slim but has a wide screen with a sharp display and is a touch screen. Keyboard has a separate number pad for quick entry of numbers into a database. Processor is quick and it has a long battery life.

I am very impressed with this product. Needless to say, the screen is absolutely gorgeous and the glare on the screen in a well lit environment is almost non-existent. This computer was purchased for school needs and it has performed exceptionally well! It has handled everything I have thrown at it. The battery life is also amazing. I have a lot of samsung products in my home and the integration of the ecosystem works flawlessly. I am very satisfied with my purchase!

3 words: Power, Speed, Storage! This is a well built machine that delivers on every level.

Great laptop! The screen is the best I have seen anywhere. All of the right ports. Backlit keyboard. USB C charging. Good battery lift. The only negative is that the touch pad doesn't register taps once and a while, but a mouse is always a better way to go anyway. If you have looked at the specs, then you should know that this is not a gaming laptop, because there is no discreet graphics card.

Nice and thin laptop. Thinner than I thought it would actually be. But very sturdy. Screen is pretty. Deep blacks. The thing I don't like about it was the keyboard layout and the track pad. I was constantly having to reposition my hands to type. Plus 16GB just is not enough to do video editing or anything that requires big files and internet.

I love its design; its OLED screen is beautiful with different preset modes that adapt to all types of users. The concept of unification between Windows and Samsung offers many advantages to create a single multi-system integration between all devices, making sharing files between the phone and the PC very easy and satisfying. The Galaxy Book 5 Pro is great in every way. The battery lasts a full day of work. The keyboard is functional and has good travel, with all its keys, including the number pad and a dedicated Copilot key, which gives us quick access to artificial intelligence. If I had to ask this laptop for something, it would be its audio system. It does have four speakers, but their placement at the bottom doesn't allow the sound to be heard clearly. It would have been much better if it were on the top. But in conclusion, I recommend this Galaxy Book 5 Pro as a work laptop.
