In the UK, the upgraded internal hardware is only available on the 15-inch model, while US consumers can get a third SKU that combines the 13-inch screen with the i7 processor and a reduced 8GB of RAM. The 5G model we’ve reviewed only comes in one configuration, which is displayed on our spec sheet. The Galaxy Book 2 Pro was announced at MWC 2022, boasting an extremely lightweight design and the latest Intel 12th-generation processors.

This isn't a laptop built for demanding tasks like gaming and video editing. It's primarily for writing essays, browsing the web, working on spreadsheets, watching movies, editing photos and other everyday computing tasks. That's reflected in a PCMark score of 4669, which means the basics are well covered but you're going to start struggling if you have a 4K movie to edit together. You won't be able to play high-end games on this either, so serious gamers will need to look elsewhere. Besides excellent color representation, this display also supports touch and inking via the Samsung S Pen. I find the S Pen often superior and more fun to use than Microsoft's Surface Pen, which applies here. Mixing Samsung's excellent assortment of Galaxy apps and this is an outstanding 2-in-1 laptop for taking notes, primarily because of its unparalleled thin-and-light design. Typical value tested under Samsung laboratory condition. Typical value is the estimated average value considering the deviation in battery capacity among the battery samples tested under IEC 61960 standard. Actual battery life may vary depending on network environment, usage patterns and other factors. For those reasons, if you want a thin-and-light convertible laptop for taking notes in class or the office, it's easy to recommend this laptop due to the battery life being better than expected. Intel’s 12th-generation ‘Alder Lake’ processors benefit from a new type of core architecture: a mixture of powerful ‘performance cores’ and energy-saving ‘efficiency cores’ that allows the processor to more efficiently manage different workloads. The i5-1240P in this Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro has four P-cores and eight E-cores for a total of twelve, which should be plenty for general productivity use.

The original Galaxy Book Pro was a powerhouse when it came to battery life, and the Book2 Pro is no slouch either. It smashes the Intel Evo laptop target of nine hours, lasting for a whopping 16 and a half hours in our looped movie battery life test, very similar to the performance of its predecessor.

Seeing as I didn’t spend too much time with the Galaxy Book 2 Pro, I can’t comment on the performance, but I can say what the specs for this laptop look like.

Typing on the Galaxy Book2 Pro is a very pleasant experience, as the keys have a surprising amount of travel and good responsiveness despite the laptop’s ultra-thin form factor. The 15-inch scale means that the keyboard isn’t too badly truncated, with nice large keys that keep erroneous keystrokes to a minimum.

Intel's latest processors should be a winner, but we haven't reviewed them yet for laptops like this, leaving it a bit of a mystery. Samsung does have a new 5G laptop coming out, but oddly it's the 15.6-inch version and not this model. That means if you buy this laptop now, there's no immediate replacement on the horizon. As you would expect, turning the fan off will throttle the CPU to prevent overheating, which is reflected in benchmarks. But the result is still impressive. Geekbench performance for single-core is a good 500 points higher than Surface Pro X (SQ2) running a fanless ARM processor, although the Galaxy Book Pro 5G's multi-core falls score is about 1,000 points behind it. On PCMark 10, the Pro X takes the lead at a 5,088 score, while the Galaxy Book Pro only gets 3,555. It's hard to find much better out there – and we don't think that anyone who puts down money for the Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 5G is going to be at all disappointed.
