The ASUS Vivobook Pro 14, with its OLED screen and higher maximum refresh rate, offers a great visual experience for general use and entertainment. It also has a slightly larger screen, which might be preferable for productivity tasks. However, the Galaxy Book2 360 boasts double the storage and RAM, a touchscreen, and a more recent CPU, making it better suited for more demanding tasks like 3D and machine learning, as well as engineering work. The Galaxy also has a more portable design and a higher portability score. Both offer similar battery life, but the Galaxy Book2 360 edges out slightly in battery longevity during typical use. If cost is a consideration, the ASUS generally sells at a slightly lower price. Therefore, if you prioritize display quality and a larger screen at a lower cost, consider the ASUS; if you require more power, more storage, and greater portability, the Galaxy Book2 360 is the better option.

The Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 and ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 are both only fair for gaming and AI.
The ASUS Vivobook Pro 14 brings a higher screen refresh rate which benefits gaming graphics smoothness, but its integrated GPU may limit performance in demanding 3D applications, whereas the Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 offers a touch-enabled OLED screen with lower refresh rate which means less fluid motion in games but its convertible form factor is versatile. Both devices share similar integrated GPUs; neither is ideal for intensive gaming but can handle lighter titles and casual 3D tasks.

Marc Herter | July 2022
"The Asus Vivobook Pro 14 OLED is a Pantone Validated laptop that packs a lot of processing power. The Asus VivoBook Pro 14 OLED's highlight is its outstanding display: Featuring a 3K resolution in the 16:10 format and nearly a 100% coverage of the Display P3 color space, the display hardly leaves anything to be desired. The Asus laptop also shows impeccable rates in terms of general system performance. Combined with long battery life, low noise emissions, and relatively good speakers, the laptop can be recommended to users who can accept compromises in terms of connectivity."

"Samsung gets all the basics right with the Book2 360. Its convertible design works well in both laptop and tablet modes, yet still manages to be highly portable, with impressive battery life and eye-catching AMOLED display. The Samsung Galaxy Book2 360 measures just 12.9mm thick and weighs 1.16kg, making it one of the most affordable ultra-portables currently available. It’s sturdily built too, so it can cope with life on the road."
