Dell G16 (2024) vs Samsung Galaxy Book4 Pro 360
The Verdict
Dell G16 (2024) and Samsung Galaxy Book4 Pro 360 target different user priorities within the same price segment. Dell focuses on gaming and raw performance with its 20-core Intel i7-14700HX, 240Hz QHD+ display, and robust port selection including three USB-A ports. The 6-hour battery life reflects this gaming-first philosophy. Samsung prioritizes portability and productivity with a slimmer 12.8mm profile, significantly lighter 1.66kg design, and superior 15-hour battery endurance. Its Dynamic AMOLED 2X display delivers higher resolution (2880x1800) and brightness (400 nits) with touchscreen capability and 2x Thunderbolt ports for creative workflows. Performance-wise, the i7-14700HX has a meaningful edge in gaming and threaded workloads, while Samsung's newer Core Ultra 7 155H offers better efficiency and integrated AI capabilities. Storage starts at 512GB on both. At $1199, Dell represents stronger value for gamers and performance enthusiasts. Samsung's $1749.99 price is steep but justified for professionals needing convertible flexibility, AMOLED quality, and all-day battery. Choose Dell for gaming and raw power, Samsung if you prioritize design, portability, and display quality for creative work.
