At 14 hours, 6 minutes, the Galaxy Book excelled on our<br />
battery rundown test, outlasting the Latitude 5285<br />
(11:09), the Surface Pro 4 (10:19), the Spectre x2 (9:38),<br />
and the Huawei Matebook (6:19). With a fully charged<br />
battery, you can watch locally stored movies on the<br />
Galaxy Book for an entire trans-Pacific flight from San<br />
Francisco to the Philippines. Using the Wi-Fi or the 4G<br />
LTE connections will sap the battery faster, but it’s fair<br />
to say that the Galaxy Book will make a good travel<br />
companion if you’re going to be away from a power plug<br />
for an extended period of time.<br />
STELLAR SCREEN, BUT WITH SHORTCOMINGS<br />
The Samsung Galaxy Book has a top-notch screen and<br />
category-leading battery life, but several shortcomings<br />
hold it back. There is no excuse these days for 4GB of<br />
RAM and a 128GB SSD when you’re paying more than<br />
$1,000 for a Windows <strong>PC</strong>. You’ll be able to get your<br />
work done, but it will feel slower, and storage will fill<br />
quicker than it would with competitors such as the<br />
Microsoft Surface Pro 4 and its upcoming successor, the<br />
Microsoft Surface Pro. The Surface Pro 4 remains our<br />
top pick for high-end tablets, the Dell Latitude 5285<br />
2-in-1 is your bet for business, and the Lenovo Miix 510<br />
will save you some money.<br />
With a fully<br />
charged<br />
battery, you can<br />
watch locally<br />
stored movies<br />
on the Galaxy<br />
Book for an<br />
entire trans-<br />
Pacific flight.<br />
