Alder Lake processor, dedicated graphics card, IPS display - the new Samsung Galaxy Book2 15 looks good on the spec sheet. In reality, though, the laptop disappoints in most respects. The new Arc A350M GPU from Intel in particular delivered lacklustre performance during the review, much like the display.https://www.notebookcheck.net/The-Samsung-Galaxy-Book2-15-only-looks-good-on-the-spec-sheet.643031.0.html
I have the 1st gen (13") which is pretty much similar to gen2. Unless you get it at 50% discount (or more) to make it worth the money, look for something else.
Pros: very slim and lightweight, stylish, good finish, reasonable battery life
Cons: low performance (cooling is severely crippled due to thinness), somehow noisy (not very audible, but not dead quiet either), 16:9 FHD screen (come on...lower res screen with jagged text due to pixel arrangement), plenty people complain their 15" screen cracked out of the blue (design flaws?), battery life could definitely be better given the size, who sells 8GB & W11 configurations in 2022??
