You can tell that Samsung has been making computers and screen panels for a long time because the Galaxy Book 2 Pro 5G is very well put together. That laptop is really well put together. Even though it’s thin and light, it never feels weak or cheap. You can quickly tell that this is a high-end portable computer when you pick it up (which you can do with one hand). This goes for both typing and using the touchpad.
If you like simple things, you’ll love the matte plastic body. Also, take note of the small Samsung mark on the lid of the laptop. We also like how the lights behind the keys of the keyboard is simple but clear. And the wedge shape of the laptop, which means the front is smaller than the back. There’s no doubt that this is a stylish and sophisticated gadget. For such a light laptop, this one has a good number of ports: one Thunderbolt 4, one USB Type-C, one USB Type-A, an HDMI port, a microSD card reader, and a plug for headphones and a microphone. This laptop is 355.4 x 225.8 x 11.7 mm thick and weighs 1.16 kg, so you won’t even be able to tell if it’s in your bag or not.

Where to Get SAMSUNG 15.6” Galaxy Book2 Pro?
The Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 5G comes in a few different styles, but the one we tested had a 12th Gen Intel Core i5-1240P processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB solid state drive. There are better options if you have more money. You can get a 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1260P processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage instead. That’s a pretty big improvement, but the less powerful option will work fine for most people and most computer chores. You also get Intel Iris Xe graphics built in.
This laptop isn’t made for heavy-duty jobs like editing videos and playing games. It’s mostly used for everyday computer jobs like writing essays, surfing the web, working on spreadsheets, watching movies, editing photos, and so on. Also, you won’t be able to play high-end games on this, so die-hard players will have to look elsewhere.
We tested the Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 5G for a few days and didn’t notice any lag or stuttering, even when we had dozens of apps and browser tabs open at the same time. There are a lot of times when the fans spin up, but the noise level is never an issue, and the laptop never got too hot to touch. That is, you can use this laptop on your lap, which makes it even better if you want something you can take with you.
