Well-constructed and quietly stylish, Super AMOLED screen is superb, S Pen is great for digital artists, Impressive performance from Core i5
LTE option only comes with 4GB of RAM, Very expensive, Stand design can be frustrating
The selling point of a 2-in-1 is its flexibility. Don't need to type? Leave the keyboard behind. Need a traditional keyboard and trackpad? Snap them on magnetically. While manufacturers might argue that makes it the best of all worlds, personally, I'd rat...

Abstract: Even in a Microsoft-free world the Samsung Galaxy Book would be a frustrating device. Ostensibly its a Surface clone: A souped up Windows tablet with a pen for drawing and a floppy keyboard for typing. In practice, its an expensive machine that has me l...
