Unlike the old laptop, the compatibility is very satisfactory. Quickly solve the bank security program, Anti-Cheat. Hello, this is Isa. Finally, I announced the starting point of a big change in the Windows laptop line. In fact, there have been slight movements before, but now a real substantial movement has been shown. So, what is it? Let me start by telling you the conclusion. A laptop equipped with AR Windows, which is a browser for smartphones, and Samsung finally unveiled the Galaxy Book 4 with this processor. In other words, we have this notebook, right? Then, if you look at it differently, this is a bit like an Anti-Book. Samsung has not made its first attempt in this regard. In the past, they released a similar concept, the Anti-version, which is the Galaxy Book S. After that, after a long time, they finally released the Anti-version with Windows. Expectations are rising that the market for Windows laptops will continue to grow.

I'm honestly quite excited right now, so Microsoft has also revamped its AI PC lineup with a new Surface Plus PC. Among the Copilot PC lineup, the 16-inch one is exclusively the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro, while the rest are all 14in or below. Just for your information, the device I have is not a mass-produced one but a development tool, and it's not the official version either, so it would be great if you could consider it for testing purposes. Samsung's laptops have been quite good lately. That's why various derivative lineups are coming out under the name Galaxy Book. The latest one is called the Edge model. Although its design is somewhat similar to the Book Pro, when you look at this new lineup, it's thinner and neater, more fitting for the name Edge. The top plate is the same as the Book series, and the hinge design is also similar to the Book.

It's very similar to the series. But when I looked at it from the side, the first thing that came to my mind was that it's similar to the design of the old Samsung Notebook. Before Samsung started using the name Galaxy Book, they used Notebook 9. It looks similar to Notebook 9 Pro and Notebook 9 Metal in terms of design, so it feels even thinner. The port configuration is also similar. There are MicroSD, USB, and headphone jacks, as well as HDMI 2.1 and two USB 4 ports. One downside is that it only comes in one color. The included charger is a 65W charger, which is the same as the previous model, Galaxy Book Pro. However, I was hoping that it would become lighter by using the ARM version. But it seems that due to the use of this luxurious aluminum material, the weight didn't decrease much, which is a bit disappointing.

The display is also the same as the Book Fold line, coming out in two models, 14-inch and 16-inch. Both models are equipped with a Dynamic AMOLED 2X touch display. The 120Hz refresh rate, anti-reflection, and Vision Booster are all included. In fact, the displays are all the same, so there's nothing special to talk about regarding the display. In terms of laptops, they are already top-notch, so there's nothing special to mention. Now, the most special part here, which can also be seen as a feature of the Compiler Plus PC, is that instead of the usual x86 Intel processor, the Snapdragon x Elite from Qualcomm, based on AR, is installed. What's interesting here is that Samsung said the 16-inch is exclusive, but their relationship with Qualcomm is so good that now, if you look at all the other brands, they all have X Elite behind them.

There is something called x12 80 100. Here, there are two options, 84 and 100. Simply put, 80 is installed in all other brands as well. If we look at our Galaxy, there is a slightly higher clocked version called Snapdragon 4 Galaxy. Samsung has reportedly exclusively adopted the high-performance model. The difference between the two models is that they both use 12 efficiency cores, and the MPU processing capabilities are also the same. However, the difference between 84 and 80 is that the CPU GPU clock is slightly higher in version 84. The base clock is probably 3.4 to 3.8 now, there should be a difference. The boost clocks are also slightly different. So, when I ran a quick Geekbench 6 test, the overall performance was quite high. The single and multi scores are much higher compared to recent Intel laptops. For the 80 model, the single score is 2,700, and the multi is.

As of 1,084, there were 2,900 single versions and 1,000 multi-versions. The difference between the two versions is roughly 6% for single and 4% for multi. The difference wasn't as significant as expected. I also checked the 2024 version of the era benchmark. At that time, the difference was 5% for single and 2% for multi. Although there is quite a difference compared to Intel, around 20 points between 80 and 8 based on the multi criteria, the performance was quite decent even in that aspect. It was usable without any stuttering. It comes with 16GB of RAM by default, with a RAM clock of 8448 MHz. Interestingly, I received it hastily and only used it for about a day. However, the ARM version of Windows tends to use quite a bit of memory by default. On average, it used around 8-9GB of memory. Even when we look at smartphones, the RAM usage is generally quite high, just like that.

Windows also has a lot of basic usage. Another unique thing is that usually laptops have an SSD on top, but the Edge used UFS. Now, when comparing, Crystal Benchmark's results showed that sequential reading and random reading were faster on other models with SSDs installed, while sequential writing and random writing were faster on the Edge. In fact, even though the numbers are similar in general use, so you might not notice a big difference. I was curious about the M performance, so I also conducted a compression test at Seven Zip. The difference between the ARM version and x86 was 69%, and the difference between the ARM version and 64-bit was 23%. Therefore, the external appearance is the same as other laptops, but there were quite noticeable differences in terms of usability. The noise perceived compared to Intel-equipped laptops was significantly lower, and for tasks like benchmarks and high-performance work.

When I turn it on, I can hear a bit of fan noise, but in the rest of the situation, it was hard to hear any noise. Heat is coming from this side, but the perceived heat compared to the existing laptop was very different. Just touching it feels different; it's mostly lukewarm. Oh, another great thing while using it was the battery. Compared to other laptops with Intel chips, the battery life is almost, let's exaggerate a bit, nearly double. For example, when watching a 4K video on YouTube with brightness set to 100%, it could play for about an hour and 30 minutes. But this is based on 100% brightness and 4K on YouTube. If you lower the brightness to half and watch a 4K video, it might last even longer, don't you think? The battery really lasts long. With the change in the processor's architecture, the differences that come are in appearance, which is completely the same, but in Windows, it's the same.

There are slight differences at a fundamental level. Broadly speaking, what we have been using on regular desktops or laptops is an architecture called x86. On the other hand, what is mainly used in smartphones is called ARM architecture. At this point, it's hard to say which one is better because they each have their own advantages and disadvantages. As for the characteristics of ARM versions, they are known for low heat and low power consumption, meaning they are more efficient. So, how can we explain this more easily? Let's say there are two identical people. When speaking in English, one understands while the other doesn't, and when speaking in Korean, one understands while the other doesn't. It could be seen as a similar level of difference. However, in reality, when looking at the appearance, they are just both humans. So, in a way, this is similar to how ARM versions are like the Windows used in regular laptops when viewed externally.

If it's homework, there is program compatibility because in the past, there was almost no compatibility, and 64-bit programs didn't run at all. So now, Microsoft has newly created an x86 64-bit emulator in preparation for the growing market, and they say they recalculated it. But honestly, when I first heard this news, I was a bit skeptical because Microsoft releases versions of Windows earlier than third parties and it has been around for a long time. Frankly, it wasn't that great during that time. But after receiving the Galaxy Book Pro, and trying it out, my thoughts are, wow, they really prepared a lot in terms of compatibility. So, those who have used Windows before know, compatibility was the biggest issue and a significant barrier. But if I may exaggerate a bit, this was like...

It feels like 80-90% of the barriers have been broken down. Probably those who are not familiar with computers might encounter this. In fact, it would be even harder to notice a big difference compared to regular Windows. In a general working environment, compatibility has been greatly improved to the point where you almost don't even think about it. However, in programs made for ARM versions, there was a bit of an initial loading time. For example, like Notion, there is some loading time, right? But with Excel, it opens right away; there is a difference in loading time. So, why did Microsoft suddenly change compatibility like this? Upon investigation, I found out that they released something called ARM64, so when developers build programs, if they check this, the code can be adjusted to match as much as possible, and only the things that cannot be converted are run through emulation. And generally, when you use it, for applications like Microsoft Office, now the ARM version is...

Because I'm with you, you may feel that it's faster or more responsive than Intel Windows. So, I tested a few programs. KakaoTalk is a bit slow to load right now. When you first launch KakaoTalk, the loading is slow, but using it for conversations or such is convenient without any inconvenience. People working usually are sensitive to printer drivers. The one we use works well without any compatibility issues. However, Notion was a bit slower than expected. Even after the loading is complete, Notion was a bit slow. Also, we tried installing Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom that we work on. They were installed from the beginning with the latest version. In the area we work on, tasks like using AI, eraser, or editing are honestly just the same. I even tried installing Logitech Hub to see if it would work.

The Hub now goes into infinite installation, but this one didn't work, and I also tested a game. For games like League of Legends, it is possible to install and run the program, but there was an issue with the Vanguard program detecting hacks during the login process, so it was impossible. Maybe if only Vanguard in LoL is updated to the latest version, it would be playable. MapleStory worked well, and even Slader Spire played smoothly. It even reached over 120 frames, and Galaxy Book Pro allows touch, so it was even better. I also installed DeBoard Dive from Steam. Casual games like this work very well. I even tried Euro Truck Simulator 2. I set the options to low, but the game still ran smoothly at around 60 to 70 frames. I was curious about FPS, so I also tried Over G 2. At this point, it was in HD quality.

When in the option mode, the average frame rate is around 80. Now, playing was possible in the practice room, but actually, there were some frame drops to about 30 frames from time to time. So, I tried lowering it to low just in case. Even though the frequency of frame drops has decreased, they still occur. In fact, it seems difficult to enjoy the game. Therefore, the program that came out for overall experience and compatibility doesn't show much difference, or it may even feel faster compared to an Intel notebook. Except for the fact that programs that are not compatible run slowly, most compatibility issues have been resolved without any difference from before. So, I felt that a lot of effort had been put into compatibility, and personally, it would be great if many programs in the future optimized for compatibility and released that version. Realistically, let's assess the current situation. Internet, office, email, and simple tasks are probably generally ready for compatibility.

You would feel much more satisfaction than a laptop, and it might be better to wait a little longer until a program optimized for ARM is released. Unlike laptops with Intel, the performance of ARM was excellent, except when doing high-performance tasks. So, out of curiosity, I compared the Galaxy Book Pro with another model, which is a 14-inch model since there is no 16-inch model. After running a benchmark test, the temperature difference was quite significant, around 7-8 degrees. The heat difference is really big. Even when doing tasks like email, internet, and Photoshop, I hardly felt any heat. Instead, it's still a bit early to say that it's a good start for ARM Windows, compared to the previous one.

For those who are going to purchase it for office use, there are still some programs that are not compatible yet. So, I recommend checking that before making a purchase. Nowadays, both smartphones and PCs emphasize AI a lot. So, this time, the Galaxy Book Pro Edge is said to incorporate Edge Computing. Therefore, the advantage of this processor is that it has an MPU that can run AI by default. So, while we used to have to upload AI functions to the server in the cloud before, now we can use it on the device itself. This means you can use AI functions even without an internet connection. Of course, it operates as a hybrid using both, and the rest is similar to the existing Galaxy ecosystem. It also works with Link to Windows, multi-control, and copy-paste.

The screen supports all the same things as before, and there are no special features or functions yet, only drawings. When you press the Creator button here, you can start creating. For example, I will try to create a smiling person. Ah, it's touch-sensitive like this, and if I draw a smiling person like this, then I can choose what I want to create next. Just to note, this supports Korean. I'm currently creating something with the MPU. Oh, I just created a person using the MPU. It seems you can adjust various shapes like watercolor and oil painting. After trying it out, it seems easier to use than expected, which makes it quite nice to use. It would be great if it could be used with other programs besides Paint. Also, there is a Live Caption feature, which allows for making calls, having conversations, or video chatting.

Or approximately 44 foreign languages are provided as English subtitles. If this works well, what would be good is when we have a conversation on Zoom, if it's difficult to understand each other's language, it would be very convenient if subtitles come out live. So, when I tested a few things, there were some features. First, now, when the announcer or the sentence is perfectly made with such a well-made voice, the translation works very well. Through Samsung Store or Samsung Care Plus representative call center. But later, it would be nice if there are some improvements. When having a conversation, sometimes it gets cut off in the middle. It's still a bit disappointing. What a bummer. The 44mm... oh, the Samsung Band feels much better. But is this calculated a lot? Then, it will be really useful later.

It seems like there are other AI features as well. One of them is called Studio Effects. This function has been around for a while, but now it is integrated into the processor MPU itself, so it can be operated on the device. This feature uses PC cameras and filters. You can use functions such as voice focus, person mode, background blur, and custom focus on the device. As for the Recall feature, it allows users to search naturally for specific tasks they performed at a certain point in the past when using a PC. This feature is not in the official version yet. I have only briefly tried using it, and it records tasks by time. You can search by time to see what tasks you performed at specific times. It allows you to search for tasks naturally or similar tasks related to them that you have searched for before. However, what I find more useful than this is when we are writing a document.

I wrote a document, then closed it without saving, and it just disappeared. So, with the recall function, you can retrieve the document you wrote like this. It seemed really useful when working. Anyway, this feature can be used more effectively now, but when it was first introduced, there were various security issues, so it will be officially supported through an update with enhanced security measures starting from September. Also, since we saw a new laptop built with a new architecture, we can't resist doing a teardown show. Let's briefly proceed with the teardown show. I'm curious because the architecture has changed. Will there be any differences? Oh, it's nice when it falls on a rubber floor. Let's quickly unpack it. I'm curious. When I just opened it, it looks quite similar, but the speaker is a little.

I feel like it has changed. I couldn't compare it because the speaker was the same 16-inch model, but I felt that its sound was a bit different. When I tried to recall old memories and looked at it, the tweeter seems the same, but the woofer seems to have changed a bit. Upon checking, it turns out that the woofer inserted in the edge is the same as the one used in the tablet version, unlike the previous woofer. The battery is equipped with 61.8 cells, and the rest is almost the same. Let's see here. Oh, wait a minute. Wow, this is quite interesting. Other laptops used heat pipes here, so I thought this one did too, but the entire thing is a vapor chamber. Can I just remove the board like this? It looks like this in this mode, and it's very thin. I probably need to release it here to let the breath out. Right, but the whole thing is a vapor chamber itself. If you look at the side, there is a vapor chamber here.

When you look at the chamber and the pressure side, what is this? It's written on a shield can, but I don't know exactly what this is. Probably this is RAM, right? Is this RAM? And it's Qualcomm Snapdragon x Elite. Oh, Snapdragon x Elite looks like this, it's quite unique. Here, it's also divided by lettering. Additionally, I wanted to write a little more, so I used it for business purposes outdoors for two days. I filled the battery, took it out, used it at 50% brightness in optimization mode, and almost all tasks were very smooth, so the satisfaction was even better. However, when running x86 emulators, it was a bit slow. For example, when trying to play videos, ARM-based media players and such are faster to start than emulating with PotPlayer, which took a bit longer to start, shall we say.

However, once turned on, both were smooth, so there were no issues. Surprisingly, the co-pilot button was fine. It wasn't as good as GPT, but it was convenient for quickly compiling information. The most noticeable thing was that the standby time compared to an Intel Windows laptop was really long. So, I kept the screen on without working continuously, but the battery didn't drain significantly. Even after using it from morning to evening for two days, about 37% of the battery remained. The pen sensitivity is not at the level to be used in a library, but it's quiet enough to not be heard in places with white noise or in an office. Additionally, it was really hot outdoors that day, but there weren't many fingerprints on the keyboard, which was quite impressive. Overall, looking at the Galaxy Book Pro, my impression is quite positive.

I haven't tried it, but I thought compatibility with the ARM version of Windows would be the biggest issue. Wow, you really prepared this well. One downside is that now, Qualcomm's Snapdragon is used, and the advantage is that most modems are built into the processor. In comparison, it's a bit disappointing that it doesn't support cellular. I evaluated it as very good in terms of compatibility and performance, but since the ARM version of Windows is still dominant, for those who are considering it, I recommend researching a bit about the ARM version of Windows before purchasing. However, if you understand the characteristics of Windows on the ARM version, it would be even more satisfying. Also, a new ARM-based device, the Book For Edge, will soon be launched. It also offers launch benefits with a maximum of 200,000 won, so stay tuned for more details.

Since the details are in the description, it would be helpful to refer to that. Anyway, if the Galaxy Book is at this level now, it could potentially become a flagship in the future. Even though the battery is sufficient now, it could be expanded further. Hey, a few years later, could the Galaxy Book Edge lineup become the main product? The compatibility has really improved beyond expectations, unlike the old versions of Windows. But I think it can be even better from here. Even looking at what was released today, the banking security isn't that great yet. That needs to be addressed. Especially, in games, the issue seems to be with the anti-cheat and security programs. If this is fixed, and especially if it's addressed in games like League of Legends, wouldn't it be amazing to play LoL on this device?
