If you value higher performance for tasks like gaming or engineering software, the ASUS ROG Flow Z13 is better equipped with a more powerful graphics card and processor, but it has a shorter battery life and is less portable than the Samsung. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360, with its vibrant OLED screen and longer battery life, offers a more enjoyable experience for general use and media consumption, and you can carry it more easily due to its lighter weight. However, it might not handle intensive tasks as well as the ASUS and has less storage. The ASUS is also more expensive than the Samsung, so budget considerations might influence your choice. Both have touchscreens, but the ASUS offers a higher refresh rate which is important for smooth visuals in gaming and fast-paced videos. Give Feedback

Andreas Osthoff | March 2022
"The Asus ROG Flow Z13 is a gaming tablet with powerful Alder Lake i9 CPU. The ROG Flow Z13 impresses with its good cooling. After our review, the impression is predominantly positive. Besides a very fast Alder Lake CPU and stable gaming performance, especially the cooling system is surprisingly effective and quiet. You can use the integrated speakers without any issues while gaming. The 1200p display in the 16:10 format also impresses with good color reproduction and high brightness. Since the battery runtimes aren't particularly long as it is, we wouldn't recommend the optional 4K panel."

Trusted Reviews
Adam Speight | July 2023
"The Samsung Galaxy Book 3 360 isn’t a laptop that the Korean manufacturer has shouted from the rooftops about, and it seems to have gotten little attention from anywhere. But, it is absolutely a laptop worth paying attention to. Compared to higher-priced devices, like the Dell XPS 13 (2022) and Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED (2023), it manages to offer a similar day-to-day experience despite the price difference. It’s really hard to justify the extra cash unless a boosted display is a requirement of yours."
