Dell G16 (2024) vs Samsung Galaxy Book4 360
The Verdict
Dell G16 targets gaming and content creation with its 16-inch QHD+ 240Hz display and powerful Intel Core i7-14700HX processor delivering 20 cores. The 2.82 kg weight and up to 6 hours battery life reflect its performance-focused design. Samsung Galaxy Book4 360 prioritizes versatility and portability at 1.65 kg with a sleek aluminum chassis and innovative 360-degree hinge for tablet mode. Its 15.6-inch AMOLED touchscreen offers vibrant colors and 400 nits brightness, while the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H achieves capable performance with excellent efficiency, stretching to 14 hours of battery life. Port selection favors Dell with three USB-A slots versus two on Samsung, though Samsung includes dual Thunderbolt ports. Storage matches at 512 GB but Samsung's non-expandable design limits upgrades. For creative professionals needing sustained high-performance output, Dell's superior cooling and raw processor power justify the compromise on portability. Conversely, Samsung excels for business users, students, and travelers valuing all-day battery, lighter weight, and display flexibility. Dell G16 wins for gaming and intensive workloads. Samsung Galaxy Book4 360 wins for balanced productivity with premium build and mobility. Choose Dell if gaming and 240Hz refresh matters; pick Samsung if you need versatility and battery longevity.
