Got a great deal on this from PB tech on the weekend. This tablet PC is so awesome! This is what I like about it: 1. Screen - AMOLED screen is so nice, best I have ever seen.. forget about the IP#$s or Sur@#$#@Pro!! 2. Size - It is so slim and light. Don't feel like a chore carrying it around. 3.

The Galaxy Book's display is out of this world, but its battery life and keyboard keep it grounded.

Thin and light; OLED display looks beautiful; Clear; loud speakers; Solid processor performance

Awkward keyboard cover; Lacks built-in stand; Poor battery life

Samsung's Surface competitor still doesn't quite match up

Sharp; vibrant display; Comfortable; backlit keyboard; Snappy performance

Awkward to use on a lap; Fans that never shut off; Middling battery life

You wait for one premium 2-in-1 Windows 10 hybrid, and along come a whole selection at once. Samsung is hoping the Galaxy Book 12-inch will catch your eye out of a growing market, promising the latest in digital S Pen technology plus more processing power than you might expect from such a skinny...

Well-constructed and quietly stylish; Super AMOLED screen is superb; S Pen is great for digital artists; Impressive performance from Core i5

LTE option only comes with 4GB of RAM; Very expensive; Stand design can be frustrating

Hybrid 2-in-1 tablet convertible devices like new are a tough gig. Striking a balance between ultimate portability, performance, and battery life is not easy when it comes to the well-under 2 pound device class of products.

Samsung has been working hard on perfecting the 2-in-1 device, and with the Samsung Galaxy Book it has made its best convertible yet, surpassing its own Galaxy TabPro S of last year.

Gorgeous display; Essential accessories included; Competitive battery life

Still-poor keyboard cover; Sub-premium materials; No Windows Hello

Samsung has undoubtedly made a better product than last year's Tab Pro S, but it's still found wanting. The plastic build is unforgivable at this price point and while performance is decent, it's not a product that is all that compelling to use.

Samsung is taking another stab at the two-in-one market with the Samsung Galaxy Book. Despite different branding, the Galaxy Book feels like a successor to last year's Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro S.

Gorgeous Super AMOLED display; Strong performance; Responsive keyboard; Interesting convertible design

Mediocre battery life; Lack of premium design; Expensive

This gorgeous Samsung 2-in-1 gives Microsoft's best tablet a run for its money

Prospective buyers with enough petty cash can hardly go wrong with the Samsung Galaxy Book 12 LTE if they like the idea of a connecting keyboard and high portability. Apart from the meagre port selection, Samsung really has managed to combine the best of both worlds in one device.

S-Pen and keyboard included; attractive and modest design; seemingly perfect workmanship; well-made; flexible keyboard case; good cameras with 13 and 5 MP; fast Wi-Fi and LTE; TPM / BitLocker and W10 Pro; good input devices; bright AMOLED screen; great viewing angle stability; very inconspicuous...

2x USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-C + audio jack only; suboptimal color accuracy; color accuracy cannot be improved; PWM at 250 Hz; tablet can heat up quite a lot; throttling under continuous load
