If you prioritize a more vivid display and longer battery life, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360, with its OLED screen, might suit you especially if you enjoy media consumption and are willing to pay a bit more. However, if you need more storage and slightly better general performance at a lower cost, the Dell Inspiron 14 7435 could be a better option. The Dell offers more storage space and has an acceptable level of performance for a variety of tasks, but it comes with an IPS display which may not be as color-rich as the Samsung's OLED. The tradeoff includes considering the Samsung's lighter weight for greater portability against the Dell's heavier build. Give Feedback

The Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 and Dell Inpsiron 14 7435 are both good for engineering and design, though the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 is somewhat better.
The Dell Inspiron 14 7435 is suited for engineering and design due to its robust CPU and GPU, ample RAM, and high-quality IPS screen, although it is slightly heavier and thicker, affecting portability. The Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 also fits engineering and design tasks with a comparable CPU, Intel's Iris Xe graphics, and a superior OLED screen but trades-off with half the storage space of the Dell and a lower screen resolution, yet offers a thinner and lighter design for better portability.

The Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 has a better screen than the Dell Inpsiron 14 7435 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
The Dell Inspiron 14 7435 offers an adequate display for everyday tasks and engineering applications, balancing resolution and brightness, but lacks the color accuracy crucial for precise design work, and the lower refresh rate doesn’t support the fluid visuals required for high-end gaming or 3D rendering. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 provides a vibrant and sharp screen with higher color fidelity, satisfying the critical eye of designers and engineers, yet it too isn't tailored for gaming or 3D content creation due to its modest refresh rate. Both laptops emphasize qualities favoring professional and general use over gaming, so users focused on multimedia or with a keen interest in design will appreciate the Samsung's superior display, though neither is ideal for gaming enthusiasts.

The Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 and Dell Inpsiron 14 7435 are both only fair for gaming and AI.
The Dell Inspiron 14 7435, with its AMD Ryzen 7 7730U Vega 8 graphics, and the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360, with Intel i7-1360P Iris Xe graphics, offer fair gaming and 3D capabilities due to their integrated GPUs which are sufficient for moderate gaming, but not optimal for high-performance games. Both models have screens with a standard refresh rate, which is acceptable for casual gaming but could be a limitation for competitive gaming where higher refresh rates are advantageous.

Eric Grevstad | August 2023
"We see no shame in an economy laptop missing the four-star mark. Frankly, we considered giving the Inspiron 14 2-in-1 three-and-a-half stars for its low price, competitive performance, and long battery life. Unfortunately, working with a screen that can't deliver at least 300 nits of brightness is simply no fun to the point of detrimental. Still, if you're looking for a convertible laptop on a tight budget, it's worth keeping an eye on Dell's sales and discounts. That Lavender Blue model is fairly tempting."

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."
