Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 360 15 (2021) review

Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 360 15 (2021) — the aging premium convertible that still sheets well

The Galaxy Book Pro 360 15 at $739 is a five-year-old premium convertible: an Intel Core i5 1135G7 with 32 GB of RAM. The flagged strength is CPU performance at 70 — a high-band reading 17% above the ultrabook median of 59.81. No weakness is flagged; graphics and memory both sit exactly at the class medians (3.84 and 32 GB), a balanced sheet for its age.

Where it holds up

The 32 GB memory ceiling matches the class median at a pro level, and office productivity posts 70.41 (high) — the strongest absolute axis on the sheet. Portability reads 58.3 (mid) for a 15-inch convertible, photo design lands at 37 (mid), and overall performance at 41.32 (mid) keeps everyday work comfortable. Value reads 48.5 (mid) this deep into the curve.

Where it falls short

No single weak spot is flagged, yet the low bands are where a 2021 platform shows its years: the gaming reading nonetheless comes in at 23, modeling at 19 and engineering CAD at 22 — the graphics floor of the generation. Graphics performance holds the 3.84 median rather than clearing it, and no axis on the sheet reaches the top band.

Price and depreciation

No depreciation anchor is recorded (base $0); no curve or projection applies. The 2021 cohort rate is 9.44% per year — the gentle, fully flattened band of a five-year-old tier.

Alternatives to consider

The Galaxy Book 2 Pro 13.3 at $840 trades the 15-inch canvas for a 0.87 kg body with portability at 89.2 (top); the Galaxy Book 3 360 15.6 at $954 brings the newer 1340P platform at the same memory tier; and the Lenovo V17 Gen 4 at $553 is the plain non-convertible route when the budget leads.

Bottom line

Fairly priced for the class. A balanced, high-office 32 GB convertible from 2021: comfortable for documents and browsing, with gaming 23, modeling 19 and CAD 22 marking the graphics floor of its generation.
