I’ve had this computer for almost 2 years now with no problems. It runs great, super fast and is worth the money! 10/10 recommend.

Great laptop for the power user who needs speed and function over "pretty". This laptop can keep up with me, which is unusual! There's no lag (unless it's with the internet), even then it recovers quickly. I've been using this laptop for over 6mos and I really like the speed and ease of use. I also like that it's lightweight so I can grab it and go. We liked it so much, we bought 12 more for the office! Only drawback for me is I don't care of the feel of the keyboard, but since I hardly use that (as I have an external ergonomic), it's not an issue yet.

Internals are excellent. Fingerprint reader does not have linux support as far as I can tell (Fedora). Chassis is generally okay, but I believe the lid is slightly skewed from use. A laptop sleeve would likely prevent this.

I needed a laptop to do my school work on, and this was a perfect option. This laptop is the perfect size to bring with you around the house or to different locations outside. It saves a lot of space because of this. The charging cord it came with is quite long so I am able to charge it while working and not have to worry about the battery dying. Even without the charger, the battery lifetime on this laptop is very strong and it's lasted hours without needing a charge. When I first got the laptop, it was very easy to set up and I had no issues. The laptop itself looks very clean and shiny, and it feels comfortable to work with for long periods of time. I feel that this laptop was worth all the money, and I would recommend it to anyone.

I admit, I do not use this for gaming but my husband does. For me, I write and edit for hours. Battery lasts me a lot longer than it does for gaming. This computer is fast, handles dictation software well, also handles lots of tasks opened at once with ease. Photoshop is excellent on this computer. I love how sleek the design is and the backlit keyboard. It's so comfortable and easy to type on I can go super fast and my hands don't hurt at all. Also the cooling system is awesome, never gets hot like my old laptop. Overall, amazing laptop and I love it.

What can I say, I got this one sale for half the price, and it doesnt disapoint. It is great for editing and work. but dont try to use this for gaming.
The intel Xe graphics is just not good for gaming, so don't buy with that intent, unless you want to play some low demanding games. It also has only 256 GB, so dont buy this if you intend to save everything on it. get a flash drive or some external SSD.
So far it is amazing, and it pairs well with the Bamboo pen. works like a charm.

Every feature about this laptop is perfect. My main favorites are the fingerprint addition on the keyboard, touchscreen and it being able to fold back into tablet form.

Loveeeeee… I came in for the MACBOOK AIR! & I ended Up $100 short with my student discount included and got this laptop as like an early bday gift to myself because I wanted to go back to school to continue my education …. Knowing not much about laptops but knowing gn size I compared it with a newer Dell laptop model and decided I liked the sleekness and silver tone of this laptop better. I also compared the flexible ness of the screen.. I saw no difference in comparison between the two in that area .. they both could flip back into a tablet that can stand on its on or lie flat ..a 3-1 Deal’.!!! BUT ..Butttttt…But when I got HOME little did I know I’d love this wayyyyyy Better than a MacBook Air…. It has a blue touch screen sensor on the right bottom side of the laptop when you open it .. I didn’t even KNOW !! Doesn’t say it! …. But when you flip it back into tablet mode if your laptop/tablet the way you hold the tablet with your right hand on the RIGHT SIDE screen and your left hand on the LEFT your right hand is aimed to perfectly have your hand E X A C T L Y by the fingerprint sensor to unlock the screen when NEEDED when your in tablet mode !!! How fu*k*** sweet is that !!!!?? Ikr !! So this way you don’t have to I flip your laptop to use the fingerprint sensor to unlock the screen in tablet mode …. Yea of course you could enter your laptop pin with the tablet portion of the laptop but where’d the fun in that .. it’s a really nice feature to have this and I LOVE THE FEEL of it!! It has nice fingerprint ridges !!! I absolutely recommend!!!

The screen display is incredibly crisp, colorful, and clear: all that is of Samsung's best in their TVs on this laptop! It's super fast and incredibly lightweight. You have to see it and lift it to appreciate it! I had to replace my 2016 HP Pavilion, which seems so large and heavy by comparison. I also wanted a replacement that would be much easier and lighter to carry around. I'm incredibly impressed with this! I haven't tried using it in the "flex" mode yet, but I got this for emails, internet, and spreadsheets. More for me to discover with this beautiful powerhouse! I can't wait!

Love it! Definitely worth the price when bought at a discount. Great size, screen and features. The battery life is awesome. Bought a Wacom Bamboo Stylus 2nd gen to go along with it and it works well! Only con is that there are currently no covers/cases for this laptop. Samsung has one for the Pro but not the Flex2 alpha… please make one for this model, Samsung!

I absolitely LOVED my Samsung Flex Book for just a little over 2 years...then the motherboard just up and fried. No damage done to the unit. So very disapppinted that it didn't last longer.
It was the perfect size book for managing my small business. Touch screen was very convenient. Speed of the computer was very good. Jist didn't last as long as it should.

Great laptop this is very similar to the Galaxy book pro with less features which I don't use anyway I did like that you could use your phone on the laptop and use your laptop as your phone normally could, it pairs really well with Galaxy devices, and the screen is vivid the colors do pop and I can compare it to a 4K display even though it is not 4K looks very similar I found that even though it is a great laptop I could not handle the crowding of the keys on the keyboard and I would constantly push the wrong key maybe most people can get used to something like that but I could not I also found the screen is brighter but not much brighter than a typical 250 bits as it claims to be a 400 bits to 600 bits of brightness. I found multitasking acceptable gaming not so much even though that this is clearly not a gaming laptop my I3 seemed to handle games a little bit better I ultimately returned this laptop because I felt like it was not worth the price and the keyboard was too crowded and the screen was too small I do say that this is definitely for someone who is on the go for school or business and this laptop is extremely light weight and it's easy to use in tablet mode the biggest complaint that I have was the hinges were not the sturdiest and the way I like to display my laptop is with the screen up and the keyboard down and when you pushed on it the screen would collapse down on itself because the hinges were not sturdy enough which was a big part of the reason of why I return this I think the battery was significantly improved and I can see this battery lasting all day the battery life on it was very nice I would give it five stars but simply because of the hinge was not as sturdy as I would hope and the crowding of the keyboard not including the size of the screen because that is what comes with it is why it would lose a star
