Performance scores
Samsung Galaxy Book 5 Pro 360 (16") (2024) — the long-haul Lunar Lake flagship convertible
The Galaxy Book 5 Pro 360 16 at $1,084 pairs an Intel Core Ultra 5 226V with an Arc 130V integrated GPU and 32 GB of RAM. The flagged strength is reliability at 88 — 72.5% above the ultrabook median of 51 — with CPU performance close behind at 83.94 (high, 40.3% above median). The flagged weakness is graphics, where the scoring pipeline has no matched entry for this integrated GPU (coverage-limited, not a literal zero).
Where it holds up
Office productivity posts 72.91 (high) on the full 32 GB, overall performance reads 45.36 (mid), and the 226V platform is built around efficiency. Photo design lands at 35 (mid), portability at 46 (mid) for a 16-inch folding body, and value reads 49.1 (mid) — the most balanced value reading on this batch's Samsung convertible shelf.
Where it falls short
The low bands are graphics-led: gaming reads 19, modeling 17 and engineering CAD 22 — integrated-graphics territory with the coverage caveat noted. Portability at 46 (mid) is the tax of the 16-inch folding format, and no axis reaches the top band.
Price and depreciation
No depreciation anchor is recorded (base $0); no curve or projection applies. The 2024 cohort rate is 11.29% per year — the early-mid band of a recent tier.
Alternatives to consider
The Galaxy Book 5 360 15.6 at $1,232 is the newer-cohort sibling with the same Arc platform at 16 GB; the Galaxy Book 4 360 15.6 at the same $1,084 is the conventional cheaper route; and the Lenovo 13w Yoga Gen 2 at $1,084 offers a Radeon-led convertible with stronger indexed graphics.
Bottom line
Fairly priced for the class. The durability-and-efficiency pick of the folding shelf: reliability 88 (high) and CPU 83.94 (high) on 32 GB, with gaming 19 and modeling 17 the honest graphics floor.
