  • Portable design, Good battery life, Super-vibrant AMOLED screen
  • Lack of ports is a pain, Keyboard stand mechanism isn't the best
  • If money's no object and portability is your primary concern, the Galaxy Book 12 is a great convertible. Just don't expect it to match the Surface Pro when it comes to productivity...

  • Superb screen, Keyboard and stylus included, Thin and light
  • Pricey for its performance and quality, Average battery life
  • Although it fixes most of the issues of its 10.6in sibling, the 12in Galaxy Book markets itself too closely against the Surface Pro, which only serves to highlight its limitations. While the best of Galaxy Book range by far, performance and build quali...

  • Samsung has undoubtedly made a better product than last year's Tab Pro S, but it's still found wanting. The plastic build is unforgivable at this price point and while performance is decent, it's not a product that is all that compelling to use.It lacks t...

  • Although 256GB of storage space is plenty, we like that there's still the option to expand this with a MicroSD card, The Samsung Flow feature means the 2in1 device can receive notifications, messages and files that are sent to your Samsung smartphone you
  • The display suffers from some glare in bright light and fingerprint marks, It's expensive, The device struggles with gaming
  • If you're looking for a Windows-based 2-in-1 this is definitely worth considering. It's great for those who want lots of storage space, as the microSD card slot makes it easy to expand the storage, but if you want to take part in some serious gaming this...

  • Thin and light, OLED display looks beautiful, Clear, loud speakers, Solid processor performance
  • Awkward keyboard cover, Lacks built-in stand, Poor battery life
  • No, unless the Galaxy Book will spend most its life playing movies. It's not that the Galaxy Book is a bad option – but there are better options for a lower price...

  • Gorgeous display, Essential accessories included, Competitive battery life
  • Still-poor keyboard cover, Sub-premium materials, No Windows Hello
  • Unless you're really into Samsung products and will make liberal use of Samsung's Galaxy phone-exclusive syncing and biometric login features (Samsung Flow), there aren't many compelling reasons to pick up the Galaxy Book over similarly priced competitors...

  • These laptop-replacement tablets are firmly at the high end, both in terms of performance and (certainly in the case of the iPad, and most likely the Galaxy Book too) price.I think Samsung has really tried to target the working professional with the Galax...

  • It's hard to say which is the best since Samsung has not yet announced pricing for the Galaxy Book. However, the bottom line - as in any comparison with a Windows 10 tablet and an iPad - is that you're really choosing between iOS and Windows. That's the f...
