Stupid name, but a solid value
Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Pros mentioned:Battery life, Display, ValueCons mentioned:Charging, Price, UsbWhile I hate the name, this is a great value. QLED helps provide great battery life without sacrificing quality. Full 1080P is enough for most people; a 4K display still destroys battery life, so I find no need for one. This is basically the same as the more expensive Flex but it just doesn't have the Qi charging pad (gimmick more than useful) and it doesn't come with the S-Pen, but it still supports it. Only thing I don't like is that in order to get USB-C charging, you have to use an actual Samsung OEM charger.

Great Laptop

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Have been using this laptop for the past 2 weeks and it has been great. The keyboard is great for typing. The only issue is the shift key is cut of to make room for the fingerprint sensor, but after awhile you get used to it. Overall a great buy.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I'm looking for 2 in 1 laptop, affordable, not big, and using windows. It's hard!! But I found this! This one is perfect for me, I like the way it feels when I type and do some drawing!! I have Samsung phone , and I'm thrilled about it. Now I have Samsung laptop! It's been 12 days, and so far I'm happy with my purchase. Note: This one doesn't come with the s pen!

Decent laptop but....
|Posted .Features
Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Excellent performance in this tiny package. Battery life is not the best. Nice bright screen. Very hard to open because there is hardly any slit for your finger to get in there to open. Very light computer but almost too light. Slides around smooth surfaces even though it has rubber feet on the bottom. Hinge is very sturdy but the screen wobbles when using the touch screen. Really not a bad computer just some minor flaws. Not the laptop for me.

Great device!!!

Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Overall, considering the specs that are packed into this device. I am very satisfied with this computer so far. The two and one adaptability is very convenient, and steel packs a good amount of hardware under the hood. I highly recommend this product if you’re considering this device over the Galaxy Book Flex. But in terms of size and audio quality it does seem to be slightly lacking on.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5The Samsung Galaxy Book Flex Alpha might be the 'lesser' of the product line but it more than holds its own. It's thin and light while being sturdy. The Fingerprint scanner works flawlessly and is nice to see. The screen pops with color, is clear, and vivid. The only minor disappointment is that the USB-C port cannot be used to charge the laptop.

Love the lighter weight & size of the SAMSUNG.
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendThe Samsung is light & smaller in size and easier to handle. Took some time to get use to this keyboard but in this length of time, no problems at all. The salesman was very helpful, and the fact that I can also use this model with keyboard flipped is sometimes helpful also. Great purchase!
What experts are saying
Q: QuestionIs this compatible with the S-Pen?
Asked by Idiot.
- A:Answer From what I have seen through reviews, no it doesn’t work with S-pen. From my own experience, I bought the wacom bamboo ink 2nd gen and it works flawlessly.

Q: QuestionCan a USB-C charger be used to charge the laptop specifically via the USB-C port? To be more specific, can one charge the laptop via its USB-C port? Thanks.
Asked by grey.
- A:Answer This device CANNOT be charged via the USB-C port. This is in contradiction to what Samsung's official website claims, as well as their customer support agents have stated. I have tried an Anker USB-C charger, as well as an Apple 30W USB-C charger. No luck with either. I took a chance on this feature when buying this computer, and was unfortunately found to be as such. This is severely disappointing for a laptop released in 2020.

Q: QuestionIs this laptop good for college specifically nursing and opening multiple apps at once.
Asked by Britt.
- A:Answer Don't know what specific needs you would need for nursing. I'd assuming it would meet them though. It's great for multitasking, I wish I had this when I was in college.

Q: QuestionI bought a Flex Alpha and Samsung S Pen. How do I use the S pen on it? Is there something I have to download or a change in the laptop itself?
Asked by Annie.
- A:Answer I bought an S Pen to use with my Samsung Flex Alpha after being told it was compatible and could be bought separately ( I was told this by both Best Buy and Samsung- this was one of the reasons I choose to purchase the Flex Alpha versus the Flex). However, after speaking to both best buy and Samsung for a long time, it was discovered that the S Pen could not be charged on the Alpha due to there being no slot. I am also not convinced that it would be able to connect without the a slot. The rep from Samsung seems to believe that if you have another device with an S Pen, the S Pen will also work on the Flex Alpha. I'm a little doubtful as again, there is no port to charge / connect it to. If anyone ends up being able to buy an S Pen and use it with the Flex Alpha without having another S Pen compatible device, please let me know!

Q: QuestionWhat is the battery life with a regular use? The manufacturer claims 17.5 hr but I wonder what is the actual number in average. Thank you!

Q: QuestionCan I use a non s-pen device to write on this (ex. wacom or n-trig pen)? I have other pens that I use on an existing surface pro 3 that I would like to use with this laptop....
Asked by N123.
- A:Answer I think it won't work. I tried wacom styluses on other galaxy devices with s-pen, didn't work. So, unless you're not using an s-pen stylus it won't work (there was a wacom s-pen compatible stylus, but I don't remember which exactly)
