If high performance for gaming or intensive engineering tasks is a priority and you're willing to accept a heavier laptop, the HP Omen 15 is preferable. It has a powerful processor and a dedicated graphics card to handle demanding software and games more effectively. However, it's less portable and has a shorter battery life than the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360. The Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 is lighter, offers an OLED touchscreen, and longer battery life, making it ideal for everyday use and media consumption on the go. It's also more affordable, but its integrated graphics and processor are less suited for heavy gaming or specialized software tasks. Give Feedback

The HP Omen 15 has a better screen than the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 for gaming and AI, while the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 has a better screen for general use, and engineering and design.
For general use, the HP Omen 15's screen provides clarity and comfort for everyday tasks with its resolution and brightness, while the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 offers an even higher quality display with sharpness and vividness that enhances user experience. When it comes to engineering and design, both laptops present accurate colors critical for detailed work, but the Samsung's superior color gamut coverage ensures that professionals can rely on more precise color representation. However, for gaming and 3D applications, both laptops' screens fall short because they lack the high refresh rates required for smooth motion and responsiveness, which are critical in fast-paced visual environments.

How the HP Omen 15 and the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 compare to other laptops
"We consider around 1,260 Euros (~$1530) for a Ryzen 7 4800H, a GeForce RTX 2060, a 512 GB SSD and 16 GB dual-channel RAM to be a good offer that appeals to price-conscious gamers. Very high details are rarely a problem in the native resolution of 1,920 x 1,080. Buyers will also be spoiled with a top-notch battery life that even beats most other notebook classes. If HP now improves the speed of the WLAN module, the stability of the case and the repeatedly criticized picture quality, the competition will have to dress extra warmly."
"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."
