I really like the design and specs of these laptops.

The 2-in-1 variants are disappointing though. If Samsung had released a 2-in-1 with dedicated xx60 graphics or better and a mid-range power limit, then I would have bought it. All they had to do was provide a higher gpu power limit than the MSI A13VFT allows and lower price than the Microsoft SLS2. The Asus Flow hit the right specs and price...but the ROG gamer aesthetic...ugh.

I'd be EXTREMELY suspect of Samsung's claims of 120% DCI-P3 coverage, considering the Galaxy Book3 Ultra only manages 86.2% with a "3K AMOLED 2X" display, and the Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 hits 85.2% (per Tomsguide, no chart in the review), despite Samsung advertising the Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 as having 120% DCI-P3 coverage. It's only marginally better than the Mini-LED panel of the M3 Macbook Pro.

We pointed our colorimeter at the Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360’s screen and found it achieves 120.1% of the sRGB color gamut and 85.2% of the more demanding DCI-P3 color space (the closer to 100%, the better). In contrast, the Surface Pro 9's achieves 106.1% of the sRGB color gamut and 75.1% of the DCI-P3 color gamut, while the MacBook Pro 14-inch achieves 118.5% and 84.% in those respective tests.
