Performance Summary

The Samsung Galaxy Book4 runs on the Intel Core 7 150U with 2P+8E cores, posting a PassMark multi-thread score of 15,513. That places it ahead of 30% of the 101 laptops in our August 2026 database. That is comfortably mid-to-upper tier: fast app launches, smooth multitasking and respectable rendering times.

Display

You get a 15.6″ IPS panel at 1920x1080 (141 PPI) refreshing at 60 Hz. The IPS panel offers dependable viewing angles and accurate-enough color for everyday use.

Gaming Performance

There is no dedicated GPU here — graphics run on the Intel integrated solution, scoring 2.6/10 for gaming. Esports staples (Valorant, LoL, CS2) are playable at modest settings; modern AAA gaming is off the table.

Productivity

For office and productivity work the Galaxy Book4 scores 4.8/10. 16 GB of DDR4 memory keeps large spreadsheets, dozens of tabs and video calls running simultaneously without paging. The 512 GB SSD keeps boots and file operations fast.

Programming

Developers should expect a 3.8/10 experience. Core count is limited — fine for scripting and web work, slow for big compiles. Note the soldered RAM: buy the capacity you’ll need in 3 years, today.

Video Editing

Without a dGPU, editing leans entirely on the CPU — fine for 1080p cuts, slow for 4K multi-layer work. For color-critical delivery, plan on an external calibrated monitor.

3D Rendering & Engineering

3D and engineering workloads score 3.3/10. Integrated graphics restrict this machine to light 2D CAD and coursework-scale models.

Battery

Battery specifics aren’t listed in our source data, so treat this as guidance: efficiency-focused hardware like this typically delivers strong all-day endurance under office loads.

Upgradeability

RAM is soldered at 16 GB — what you buy is what you keep. Storage is M.2 SSD-based, typically replaceable for capacity upgrades.

Heat & Noise

Integrated-graphics designs like this run cool and quiet; fan noise should only surface under sustained heavy loads.

Port Selection

Port selection isn’t enumerated in our source sheet, but as a general laptop in the 15.6″ class, expect the standard mix of USB-A, USB-C and HDMI. Verify the exact loadout on the Amazon listing before buying.
