Reviews for the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra 16, i9-13900H RTX 4070

80% Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra review: Almost as good as a MacBook
Source: It Pro
The Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra is a thin ultrabook in the style of a MacBook Pro or the Dell XPS. It's sleek, it's powerful, and it's expensive. Before we even get into its capabilities, the display technology will be the main attraction point here, particularly given Samsung's expertise in that field. It's also worth pointing out that this is the first Galaxy Book to feature an Nvidia GeForce GPU (the RTX 4070 no less). So our expectation of its screen is very high. Can the Galaxy Book3 Ultra live up to the billing?

80% Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra review: The third way
Source: Expert Reviews
The low TGP of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 makes it difficult to recommend the top-spec model of the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra, then, but the less costly models do make plenty of sense. If you’re looking for a Windows laptop for video-editing or heavy creative purposes, this is a seriously tempting machine. It’s fast, the display is wonderful and the chassis is both well constructed and relatively compact. Pick up the cheapest model and you can upgrade the SSD quickly yourself, using the spare internal M.2 port, so you have significant storage for relatively little cash compared with a MacBook Pro. The only thing to be aware of is that, just because the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra has an RTX 40-series GPU inside, doesn’t mean it’s a fully fledged gaming portable.

Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra preview: Is this Samsung’s MacBook Pro Killer?
Source: Expert Reviews
Samsung usually reserves its big January launches for its Galaxy smartphones and occasionally the odd tablet, but this year the side dish is the powerful and sleek Samsung Galaxy Book3 Ultra. It isn’t the only laptop Samsung has just announced (you can read about the latest Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro and Book3 Pro 360 models here) but it is the most interesting as it’s taking on Apple’s just-announced MacBook Pro machines head on. And, from what I’ve seen so far, Apple should probably be a teeny bit worried.

Samsung Galaxy Book ULTRA Hands-On: Real MacBook Competition?
Source: Pocketnow
So what if Samsung decided to follow up on its Ultra phone with an Ultra Laptop, but then fixed the shortcomings of the rest in the process. Samsung has been doing laptops for quite some time, and we've praised them for their bold and sleek designs, powerful internals, Galaxy Ecosystem integrations, and just enough variety for you to pick from conventional to extravagant with full WACOM S Pen support. The only thing I've spent complaining about is that those beautiful OLEDs needed a boost in resolution to go from good to great, and that time has finally come. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow and it's time for our hands-on of Samsung's new Galaxy Book series, which just got pretty awesome

First Impressions: Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Ultra Review
Source: Trusted Reviews
Samsung is taking laptops seriously again and it’s great to see. The Galaxy Book 3 Ultra is a no-nonsense machine designed to take on the MacBook Pro 14 and 16, offering powerful Intel CPU and Nvidia GPU options that should entice creators and professionals. It’s not the most inventive when it comes to design and it generally feels like other Samsung laptops, yet there’s no doubt the AMOLED display is glorious.

Alongside the Galaxy S23 series, Samsung has also launched the Galaxy Book 3 series of laptops. The revamped lineup sees a new Galaxy Book 3 Ultra as the most capable and powerful model aimed at creators, while the rest of the range is aimed at users seeking a lightweight laptop. All models have the 13th Gen Intel Core processors at heart and all of them feature AMOLED displays. And yes, the white colour from last year's lineup is gone as well. The Galaxy Book 3 series prices are yet to be announced for India.

Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Ultra hands-on review
Source: Laptop Mag
We’re in the very early days of testing the Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Ultra, but it’s ticking all the right boxes to be a good option for creative pros — bringing that super slim notebook form factor that Samsung is famous for with a ton of power. Of course, we’re not going to say much more than that right now, as there isn’t much more I can talk about without being quickly silenced by a company representative. However, color me excited for this.
