Sub-premium materials
No Windows Hello
Keyboard cover not all that sturdy
Misses out on attention-grabbing specs
Battery life only average
It can get hot if multitasking for a long time. The keyboard case is wobbly if not sitting on a sturdy surface. The kickstand situation isn't as solid as the Surface's

14 hours of battery life, Very thin and light, 2,160-by-1,440 Super AMOLED screen is sharp and brilliant, 4G LTE connectivity, Keyboard cover and S Pen are bundled
4GB of RAM and 128GB SSD, Lacks a kickstand, USB Type A adapter is not included, Pen storage is flimsy, No Windows Hello or fingerprint security support
Samsung's Galaxy Book is a high-end 2-in-1 convertible with a gorgeous Super AMOLED screen and category-leading battery life. But it could use a bump up in memory and storage to merit its $1,300 price tag...

Well-constructed and quietly stylish, Super AMOLED screen is superb, S Pen is great for digital artists, Impressive performance from Core i5
LTE option only comes with 4GB of RAM, Very expensive, Stand design can be frustrating
The selling point of a 2-in-1 is its flexibility. Don't need to type? Leave the keyboard behind. Need a traditional keyboard and trackpad? Snap them on magnetically. While manufacturers might argue that makes it the best of all worlds, personally, I'd rat...

The Samsung Galaxy book beats the Surface on value by including a keyboard cover and stylus in the box, but the Surface's design is still much more refined...
