The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 offers premium performance suitable for intensive tasks, such as gaming and 3D modeling, which comes at a higher cost and with less portability. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 is more versatile with its 2-in-1 form factor, offering good performance for general use and better portability at a lower price point. If your priority is gaming or demanding software, consider the Lenovo; for everyday productivity with the convenience of a tablet, the Samsung might be more appropriate. Give Feedback

The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 15.6" is good for gaming and AI, while the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 is only fair.
The Lenovo Legion Slim 7, with its Nvidia RTX 3060 graphics card, is superior for gaming and 3D tasks due to a higher screen refresh rate compared to the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360's Iris Xe graphics and lower refresh rate. While the Galaxy Book3 360 has a high-quality OLED screen, the refresh rate and GPU are more critical for a smooth gaming and 3D experience, making the Lenovo the more suitable option for these specific purposes.

The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 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, engineering and design, and content creation.
For general use, you'll appreciate a sharp, bright display on both the Lenovo Legion Slim and Samsung Galaxy Book3 360; however, the Samsung stands out with better clarity and vibrancy due to its resolution and panel quality. When it comes to engineering and design, the Samsung likely offers more accurate color representation, which is crucial for precise visual work, thanks to its wider color gamuts. On the other hand, neither laptop is ideal for gaming and 3D applications since they both have lower refresh rates, although their resolutions and panel types are adequate for less demanding visuals.

The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 15.6" and Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 are both good for engineering and design.
The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 offers stronger graphics performance for engineering and design thanks to its dedicated Nvidia RTX GPU, while the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 provides a high-quality OLED touchscreen which could be beneficial for designers who prioritize color accuracy and pen input. The Lenovo is heavier and thicker, aiming at higher performance which may result in increased operating noise and reduced portability, whereas the Samsung is lighter, thinner, more portable, and its convertible design adds versatility but it relies on integrated graphics that may not be suitable for the most intensive tasks.

Benjamin Herzig | November 2022
"The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 is a slim Legion notebook that is just as excellent with Nvidia & Intel. However, the Legion Slim 7i slightly sullied by lacklustre battery life. You get a slim aluminium chassis, great input devices, decent port selection, fast high-quality WQXGA display and great performance. Supporting Thunderbolt 4 is one advantage of the Intel/Nvidia model tested in this review. Moreover, this variant has slightly higher CPU performance as well as better GPU performance in certain applications (e.g. CUDA-based apps). The Lenovo Legion S7i is thin, premium and performant – but less efficient than its AMD counterpart."

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."
