Reviewer verdict
Across 7 YouTube reviews, the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Ultra (2024) earns an Index score of 4/5, ranking #29 among Laptops. Reviewers most often praise its display, performance, software & operating system, while the most common criticisms concern other, keyboard & trackpad.
The Galaxy Book4 Ultra earns strong praise primarily for its display, with many reviewers (35 mentions) calling the 16-inch Dynamic AMOLED touchscreen spectacular, bright, color-rich, anti-reflective and usable outdoors. Performance is another frequent highlight (27 mentions), with reviewers noting fast video export and desktop-class speed for editing, gaming and 3D work thanks to Intel Core Ultra and Nvidia GPUs. Samsung’s software and ecosystem features (24 mentions) — including Smart Switch, Samsung Studio, multicontrol and a Windows Co-pilot key — are often cited as helpful productivity enhancers. Reviewers also like the premium design, solid build and comfortable keyboard/large trackpad (combined mentions across design and input features).
Criticisms concentrate on input and audio shortcomings: many reviewers report trackpad and keyboard layout/issues (14 mentions) such as accidental touches, off-center or short travel keys and an awkward numpad placement. Several reviewers also call the built-in audio and microphone underwhelming (in the Other and Audio groups) and some note battery life as only average or variable (12 mentions across battery-related pros and 4 explicit battery cons). Other recurring negatives include a large power brick, a noisy fan and small software rough edges around Co-pilot and preinstalled apps.
