Lenovo V15 vs Samsung Galaxy Book3 360

The Lenovo V15 with an AMD Ryzen 5 5500U processor, ample RAM, and a generous storage capacity, coupled with a durable battery life, makes for a reliable choice for general use. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 not only matches the RAM but also provides a high-quality OLED touchscreen with a more powerful Intel i7 CPU and a higher-capacity battery, making it versatile for diverse tasks and also suitable for tablet use due to its 2-in-1 convertible design.

The Lenovo V15 is considered fair for engineering and design use because it has an AMD Ryzen processor with Vega graphics, which provides decent performance, but it is equipped with a lower quality TN screen that may not display colors as vibrantly as an OLED screen, which is important for design work. In comparison, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 is rated good for these tasks, boasting a more powerful Intel i7 processor with Iris Xe graphics and a higher quality OLED touchscreen that offers superior color accuracy and brightness for detailed engineering and design tasks.

For general use, the Lenovo V15's screen might disappoint due to its lower resolution and brightness, which affects how sharp and vivid the display appears, while the Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 offers a higher resolution and brighter display for crisp and clear visuals. When it comes to engineering and design, Samsung's screen shines with a wider range of colors, accommodating professional color spaces, but the Lenovo's display lacks in this area, potentially making it less suitable for color-critical work. For gaming and 3D, the Galaxy Book3 360 falls short due to its lower refresh rate, resulting in less smooth motion, while both may offer acceptable resolution and panel quality for moderate gaming and 3D application needs.

Battery life estimate is based on a mix of common use patterns. More portable and higher performing laptops tend to have less battery life.

PerfectRec’s Build Quality Score incorporates case materials, display and keyboard flex, hinge quality, and overall reliability.

The Lenovo V15 has a capable GPU that allows for decent gaming and 3D performance; however, its screen refresh rate may not be as high as dedicated gaming laptops. The Samsung Galaxy Book3 360 also provides fair performance for gaming and 3D applications with its GPU, and the screen quality adds to a better visual experience, although the refresh rate and CPU may not be as robust as specialized gaming devices.
