The Lenovo Legion Slim 7 16" is a midrange-priced laptop that stands out for its gaming capability, higher refresh rate screen, and larger battery capacity, making it well-suited for intensive tasks like 3D rendering, machine learning, and general gaming. However, it's heavier and has a significantly higher price than the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360. On the other hand, the Galaxy Book3 360, priced lower-midrange, offers a balance between performance and portability, with a touchscreen OLED display and a lighter build, making it a good choice for general use, including multimedia consumption and productivity tasks. It is also more portable due to its lighter weight and longer battery life, but it falls short in high-performance tasks compared to the Lenovo. Give Feedback

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."
