Got a great deal on the Galaxy Book 6 laptop for $500 off normal price. It is very quick to load and works extremely well within the Samsung ecosystem

Very well built, excellent cpu and memory for multi-tasking and every day applications.

I was looking for a new laptop. My requirements were a 16-inch touch screen, long battery life, slim and easy to carry, as well as built-in AI capabilities. This Samsung Galaxy Book6 checked all the boxes, so I ordered it. I have many Samsung products (phones, TVs, tablets, etc.) and have been very happy with their quality and functionality, so I had high expectations for this computer. Out of the box, the first thing I noticed was the charger. It conveniently uses a standard USB-C cable, and one is included. The power supply it comes with is a standard “super-fast” 50W charger that you might use with a phone or tablet. It’s compact but does the job. Of course it will use any USB-C charger, but unless it supports the “super-fast” protocol, you’ll get a message about slow charging. The charger block is easily found in the box, but the cable, and a tiny little “getting started” pamphlet, is hidden in the cardboard packing under a flap. That manual succinctly explains how to plug in the charger and which button on the keyboard is for power. That power button is flat and unlabeled. It could easily be mistaken for a “blank” on the keyboard, but understandable as it also doubles as a fingerprint sensor for biometric login. The 16-inch IPS HD+ touchscreen is bright and offers a fair range of viewing angles. It looks most clear and bright when viewed dead-on. Off-axis viewing is just slightly dimmer. The touchscreen is responsive and the refresh rate is decent enough for casual gaming, though it lacks a high-end graphics processor for anything serious. The brightness is very good as is color reproduction. Of course contrast is not as good as an OLED or micro-LED screen, but it’s more than adequate for a laptop. Although the screen won’t tilt back flat, it does go further than most laptops – back to a 45-degree angle. One of the shortcomings is the keyboard and mousepad. The keys are very flat, with maybe 1mm of height. Travel is maybe 2mm. There is minimal tactile feedback, and they have a mushy feel. I find it difficult to type on. I much prefer taller keys with better feedback. It’s definitely not intended for gaming, and a fast typist will likely be frustrated. The mousepad is a decent size and it is responsive, but it has an annoying issue. By default, it’s configured to use a two-finger touch to emulate the right-click function. If you tap it with two fingers, it works as intended, but if you press on it with two fingers and activate the “click” feedback, it won’t accept it as a right-click. I’ve never had a mousepad that operates that way, and I’m not sure I can get used to that. One thing I will note is that the specs on the BestBuy website indicate that the keyboard is not backlit, but in fact it is. The backlighting is controlled by the F9 key, and it has four levels: off, plus three brightness settings. Even the brightest setting is fairly dim and hard to see in normal office lighting, but it’s plenty bright if used in a dark setting. One of the best features of this Galaxy Book6 is its assortment of ports. It has an HDMI port, 2 USB-C “Thunderbolt” ports, two USB-A ports, a 2.5mm headset jack, a microSD card reader, plus an unusual feature – a gigabit Ethernet port. The USB-C ports directly support an external monitor or even a multi-monitor expansion dock. It easily drives two external monitors. There is also an LED power indicator on the left side so you can easily see that the computer is on or charging. One reason I chose this Galaxy Book6 is it’s “Copilot+ PC” specification. It includes an Intel NPU for local AI/LM processing. I tested a few local LLMs and they work adequately, though not as fast as a dedicated AI server using GPUs for processing. It’s fine for simple offline AI features like writing and spreadsheet assistance in Microsoft Office. Anything more complex, such as writing code or recognizing data is slow, but usable. Overall performance using standard PC apps like Office, web browsers, and photo editing software is excellent. Overall, I like this Galaxy Book6. It feels sold and well-made, and the great selection of ports make it perfect as a desktop replacement. The keyboard and mouse are weak points for me, and that’s what keeps me from giving it a full 5-star rating. I do recommend this computer.

Easy to maneuver, clear screen. I will be using this laptop for my part-time job, and I love the ease of using it along with my Samsung cell phone.

Good for the price. I got it for best price at bestbuy

I have multiple laptops and two that I use on a daily basis, which I will compare to this laptop for the review. The setup is about the normal for any new laptop today. Takes about 15-20 minutes to update most of things that I will not use (AI, Copilot, photo magic, etc). Now, AI for searching the internet and comparing things has been great. Initial setup went smooth and the computer seems fast (being new) and works as intended. Turning on the backlit keyboard was frustrating as it would not respond until the computer was 100% done updating and then, it is slow to respond. Works well once figured out. The screen is nice and bright, colorful but not as punchy as an OLED. The wifi connection was fast, even after the initial struggle to connect to the 6Ghz band. Keyboard is comfortable and the black on silver contrast is nice. Computer speed is on par with most Intel 7 ultra processors. However, only 8gb of RAM and not having a dedicated GPU hurts this computers overall longevity as it will eventually get bogged down. I also did not see face recognition to open the computer from the lock screen. Overall, this a 4.5 stars but since that is not a choice, I gave it a 5 as long as you are aware of the short comings.

The Samsung Galaxy Book6 is the base model of this latest series, with Book6 Pro and Book6 Ultra available for those who need more hmmph. Overall, it’s a decent laptop suitable for school or general office use. PROs - Feels light for a 16” laptop. - Quiet keyboard. Typing on it feels fine, for the most part, except the space bar is a little louder than the other keys. - Quiet operation. No discernable fan noise for the most part. - IPS LED screen with excellent viewing angles from the sides and edge-to-edge brightness. No surprise given that Samsung makes great TVs and screens. - The screen is a touch screen, which is sometimes easier to use to scroll or place the cursor, among other uses. - Firm hinges that do not shake the screen when typing. - A decent number of ports including 2 USB-C, 2 USB-A, MicroSD card slod, headphone jack, HDMI and an ethernet port which is getting harder to find nowadays. CONs - No backlit keys. I would have expected backlighting at this price point. - The Control Key on the right side has been replaced with the CoPilot Key. That means I can no longer use a right-hand-only shortcut to quickly move the cursor or delete one word at a time. This is probably my biggest peeve as I constantly use the Control Key to navigate with one hand. - Speakers are average at best. They are underneath the bottom and point downwards. Lacks bass and depth. But clarity is good. - I like using the top row function keys to control settings like volume, brightness, etc…, instead of as function keys. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a way to turn on the Function Key Lock as default. I have to invoke it every time it restarts. - Home and End keys should have been full sized instead of matching them to the page up and page down half sized keys for aesthetics. - Lid is stiff and cannot be opened with one hand. Your other hand has to keep the bottom half fixed to the desk. OTHER - Initial startup invokes the usual Microsoft updates that takes forever, and continues to remind me why my primary computer is a Mac. - As is true for many OEMs, Samsung includes their own utilities for configuring settings and it can be confusing with the standard Microsoft settings. However, if you have other recent Samsung devices like a Galaxy phone, they are discoverable with Samsung’s utilities. - With only 512 GB of SSD storage, you’ll quickly find yourself with less than 400 GB of available space since the operating system and utilities takes up room. You will almost certainly be relying on some kind of cloud storage. Overall I recommend this laptop, especially if it comes on sale, for general office and school.

In the market for a high-performance laptop for everyday and business use, this Galaxy Book6 hit all the sweet spots. I needed something that was lightweight, thin, easy to carry with a long battery life. The battery easily lasts all day and beyond. The large bright 16” touch screen and backlit keyboard make it a pleasure to use in any lighting. The headphone jack is perfect for those situations when enjoying videos or gaming and not disturbing anyone else. I found the network connectivity and Bluetooth to be fast and flawless. With 16GB of memory, a 512 GB SSD, the latest Intel 7 processor, and a large selection of ports I expect it to perform for years to come. I would share that I don’t use this for gaming. The integrated graphics while fast, are not serious gamer level. If you’re other devices are Samsung, it becomes an integral part of that ecosystem. Directly accessing my phone is a great time saver, including drag and drop. My home automation is based on SmartThings, and the integration is a great feature. It was time to step up from a basic laptop, and this one really delivers for me.

I loved my Book 2. I wanted something just like it. I was told this was the same thing with a newer processor, but it was not the same thing. It is way bigger and much heavier. It does not have the 360 degree hinge that permitted it to be folded over to use like a tablet. I literally cried when I opened it I was so frustrated as I loved my Book 2 as it was the best computer I ever owned. The size and functionality of this Book6 greatly reduces where, when and how I can use it. When I called back, I was told there was nothing out thee with that same function of the Book2. I really wish I had returned it because a week later I saw an ad for another computer that did look like it functioned like the Book2. It was just another brand.

i REALLY like this machine! Setup is your typical PC. Windows 11 with touchscreen and Fingerprint unlock. Power is via a USB block and cable so no HUGE powerblock. THis is a portable PC! operation is great. I has a big 16" screen with touch function. I love the fingerprint scanner for quick unlock(no pin/code/password) at .66 size is great. as mentioned the `16" screen. its ultra thin at .66" and only 4lbs. performance was great. Handled all my work functions and web browsing. Graphics are onboard integrated but I was able to paly a few games with good perfomance. The SSD is 512GB paired with online storage is enough for my needs. There are 2 ports so you can add another SSD if you desire! It does have ll the jacks you need built in. so need for an extra hub. Unless you just have a ton of USB peripherals to plug in. I typically have Headset, mouse. And if in office, I may plug in ethernet Overall, SOLID laptop for the business professional or general social platorm browser. Had ability to perform several concurrent tasks and some general video editing. With expansion if needed.

So this is my first time having a Samsung laptop after many years of buying from their competitors. I will say there’s a lot to like about this unit, starting with the screen! The display is super sharp and the touch screen is very responsive and accurate. I found myself quickly adapting and spending more time tapping the screen than the mousepad for common tasks. It’s also a better than average size for a laptop while still maintaining a compact and reasonably lightweight form factor. Power? It has plenty, and in my time spent using a couple of the AI platforms it chugged along without any problems whatsoever. I’d definitely say it has a lean toward performance without being a full blown gaming laptop, so most people won’t be disappointed. One thing I wish I would have realized is how customized Samsung’s software add ons are for someone who is specifically a user of their mobile devices. As i started clicking through all the things it could do, it felt like you would only really appreciate them if you have a Galaxy. That’s why I say it’s great if you live in their ecosystem, but don’t expect all the extras to work if you’re an iPhone user.
