Great little tablet, then died an early death. I hardly knew it.

I pre-purchased this for June release. Unit failed to boot within 2 months. Sent in for repair. I got one email from Samsung about device. Not repairable and still waiting for replacement. Has very little value to me at present.

Bright display; Lightweight; Built-in speakers

system failure

Samsung Galaxy Book (10.6 inch) review: The affordable, long-lasting Windows 2-in-1

The Samsung Galaxy Book trims the price compared to its TabPro S spiritual predecessor, which is a big step in the right direction. Working against this positive, however, is just how well finished its quality competitors are, such as the pricier Microsoft Surface Pro.

Strong battery life as spec isn't all-powerful; Intel Core M3 chipset means silent operation; S Pen stylus and Island Type keyboard included; Reasonable price point

Still uses a horribly fussy keyboard stand; Lack of ports and no full-size USB; Material choices don't aren't visually high-end

Samsung Galaxy Book 10.6

The 10.6-inch Galaxy Book is Samsung's most affordable Windows 2-in-1 laptop to date. With a compact design, bundled keyboard and stylus, it's the complete package for anyone who wants to take notes on the fly and doesn't want a full-size laptop weighing them down.

Ultra-portable design; Excellent stylus for note-taking; Decent keyboard; Good screen

Middling performance; Mediocre battery life
