Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 5 vs Samsung Galaxy Book4 360
The Verdict
Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 5 and Samsung Galaxy Book4 360 target different priorities within the premium ultrabook segment. The ThinkPad excels with its 2.8K OLED display delivering 2880 x 1800 resolution and superior color accuracy, paired with a lighter 1.28 kg chassis and magnesium-carbon fiber construction ideal for frequent travel. Its 90Hz refresh rate on a smaller 14-inch screen provides crisp responsiveness, while the 58 Wh battery still manages 15 hours of mixed use. The Galaxy Book4 360 counters with a larger 15.6-inch AMOLED touchscreen (1920 x 1080) featuring 120Hz refresh and 2-in-1 convertible functionality, making it more versatile for presentations and content creation. Its 16-core processor (Core Ultra 7 155H) offers marginally better multi-threaded performance compared to the ThinkPad's 12-core setup, though real-world differences are minimal for typical workloads. The Galaxy Book4 is heavier at 1.65 kg with a slightly thinner 14.9mm profile, non-expandable storage, and Windows 11 Home versus Pro. At $80 less, the ThinkPad delivers superior display quality and portability for business users prioritizing screen fidelity. Choose the Galaxy Book4 if you need the convertible form factor and larger screen for creative work.
