I don't recall you mentioning Dolby Access before. I turned that on on my OG Galaxy Book Pro 360 - What a difference! This is why I watch your videos, even for devices that I haven't upgraded to. You have some of the most useful Samsung centered videos out there. Keep up the great work.
Hi Dan, thanks for another visit! It's actually in the very first video I ever posted on this channel, seems like forever ago, lol! It sure does make a HUGE difference, and I'm just stunned that Samsung has it disabled out of the box on this year's model and the original GB Pro 360. Strange thing though, I'm almost certain it was enabled by default on last year's book2 pro 360. One year off, one year on, one year off, ha ha.
I agree, and thank you for stopping by again. There's an older model called teh Flex (I think, pretty sure) that had a silo for the s pen. But so far, none of the galaxy book machines have had it. It sure would be nice, I'm always afraid of losing it.
At the time when the Flex selling (the Flex line has stopped at the 11th Gen Intel, call Flex 2), people are complaining the S Pen is too tiny, not great for drawing only acceptable for casual note taking, that's probably why Samsung hasn't update that range any more.
You should get the Wacom staedtler pen. It's a real wood pencil with a Wacom tip. I would swap the tip from the Samsung pen but that's a preference thing.
Thank your doing these tips & tricks videos. Tips & tricks was the reason I started watching UA-cam tech videos. Now 5 years later, no one does them anymore.
You're welcome, and thank you so much for watching! I enjoy doing these tips and tricks videos, along with the "how-to" videos, they're always fun to make.
I'm 6 minutes in with my galaxy book 3 360 NON-pro, and already the dolby atmos tip helped alot, along with the screen brightness tips. So definitely some of these tips will also work with the non-pro model.
Very helpful and informative. Thanks to your review on Galaxy Book2 Pro 360, I purchased it last year. Now I upgraded to Galaxy Book3 Pro 360. I really love 16:10 aspect ratio and 120 Hz screen.
I'm still waiting for my galaxy book 3 ultra while watching this video. I will follow your instructions once I get it. Thank you for the information! :)
Hi Joy, thanks for watching! Oh wow, congrats on getting the book3 Ultra, that's so awesome! Please let me know what you think of it after you get it and have spent some time with it. I'm a bit jealous!
Amazing video as always! Best channel for Samsung users on yt. I wonder what happened to the function that used to come on the Samsung security app that allowed the machine to take a picture of the person if they put the wrong password 🤔
Thank you so much for your kind words, I greatly appreciate it! That's a great question. I remember trying out that setting on last year's model, but don't recall seeing it on this year's, though I honestly haven't been looking for it. Well, I am now, lol. If I come across it, i'll try to remember to reply back to you with an update.
Thanks so much friend. I bought a Pro - 360 yesterday and felt a little overwhelmed. But after watching your video, I feel far more comfortable. Cheers!
You're welcome my friend, and thanks again for another visit! I'm glad this video was helpful. I have a couple videos in the works for this awesome machine, including the full long term review that's long overdue.
Also Sir, I would like to ask, 1. Is the RAM Soldered in, or is it removable and expandable ? Similarly, is the SSD Soldered in or is it expandable? 2. Also Sir, does it also have the Samsung Secure Folder 📁 where we can securely store and hide our files, like it does in Samsung Smartphones and Tablets? Thanks in Advance. ❤
Hi, thanks for watching! 1. Yes, the RAM is soldered on and can't be upgraded. The SSD is not soldered, you can replace it and also install a second SSD if you like. 2. Yes, it does have a version of Secure Folder called Privacy Folder that's found in the Samsung Security app. You also have File Tracker, which breaks down usage very well.
Super helpful. Thanks for doing this. You didn't explicitly mention where to configure the 'limit battery charge' feature to extend the battery lifetime of the laptop, but I found it in the samsung settings app. (Battery Performance --> Protect Battery) What a great feature to extend the useful life of the machines battery over many years of use!
Thank you so much, and I apologize for not showing that in this particular video. I think I covered it in a couple others and just blanked out on including it in this, sorry about that. Thanks for stopping by!
Can you make a video about how to maximize performance? Like all the tips and tricks about how to run as smooth as possible. How to make chrome, one note, windows, and other Samsung apps run smooth as possible. For me as a student, I don’t mind having my laptop always plugged in as long as my programs are running optimally.
That would be amazing! I am really on the fence about waiting for updates to come in and taking it back. Applications like Onenote are extremely laggy (particularly the lasso tool). I have reduced the overal background ram usage and its still not as smooth as my previous 16 gb pc.
You're welcome, thank you for watching. That's a really great question. Yes, I use a galaxy tab s8 ultra and a S23 Ultra with it. I'll tell you what, I'll go ahead and briefile answer in the next Q&A video that will be out on Wednesday, but I'm also flagging this for a dedicated video. I think it's a really good idea to get that info out there, thanks for the great idea!
Hi great video.. I purchased the Samsung pro 3 to use with waves LV1 sound system mainly because of the touchscreen, but when I heard the default sound it was dreadful in comparison to my Lenovo despite it been 2k more expensive!! Still I’m hoping to get the sound right… Could you tell me how I can stop the screen colour from fading in snd out… I tried everything 🙈
The sound is pretty terrible until you enable Dolby Atmos, it helps a lot. I don't have any issues with colors fading in and out, that sounds very odd. I would suggest going into your Display Settings, and check for things like HDR turning on automatically and also the color profile mode you're in.
Hey Charles! I'll be testing it out soon, I'm not even sure yet if there's new that's been added to it. Last year's model is awesome my friend. From a performance standpoint, there's not a big difference from what I can tell so far.
Hello, I just wanted to thank you for pointing out the places where the s pen can magnetically attach to. I could not find it myself and, for some reason, this info was nowhere online. I even saw a post where it said that it actually didn't come with a spot for the s pen to attach to which kinda bummed me out. Thanks to you though, I now know about it which would've been the main turning point for me regarding keeping the laptop or not. Great video, by the way, I appreciate the time stamps.
Hi Marwan, thanks for watching and for the really nice comment, I appreciate you. I'm glad this video was helpful, and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have about it.
Implementing ALL these settings now. Thank you for sharing. Can you recommend any laptops from Asus that would be similar in performance and features to the Galaxy Book. I like the laptop but want to test it against other options.
Thanks for stopping by. I think the Zenbook line from Asus is the closest competitor to this particular machine. It's a little bit cheaper, but the performance is pretty good on them.
THank you! Great video. New to windows computers. It would be helpful to know what app and unnecessary files we can delete to free up space. Always new trips and tricks are always helpful too!
That's a great suggestion, thank you. I actually covered this in a recent Q&A video, there's a bit in there about removing bloatware from the book3 pro 360, here you go - ua-cam.com/video/qIUiS_u2gXg/v-deo.html, there are timestamps in the description. Thanks for watching.
Awesome video! I'm 53 and always used desk tops. I pre-ordered this one and was very disappointed in the sound. Especially since the S8 Ultra tab sounds amazing. I really appreciate the info on improving the sound. 1 question do you know if Samsung TV is available on it? Update: 2 more questions What browser and anti virus do you recommend? Thanks
HI, thank you so much for watching! I'm glad the audio tip was useful, that sure is a big one on these galaxy book laptops. Samsung TV? No Browser? Edge and FIrefox, mostly Edge these days. I still use Chrome for it's extensions though, I'm kind of stuck relying on a couple of them. Anti-Virus? I sue the default Windows Defender and Malware Protection that's already pre-installed. After you uninstall McAfee, type Anti Virus in the start menu, and that will take you to a settings page that will let you pick Windows Defender as your default anti-virus.
Amazing video man. I do hae a few questions, i bought a GB3 360 13inch, but it didnt come with the s pen included, what pen model should i get that would work with it? Also can the keycaps of the laptop be changed/swapped in places? Scared to try ripping it open
Thank you, appreciate you watching! Don't pull on those keycaps, it's not that type of keyboard. You're stuck with what's there, please don't try to customize it. You can use any s pen you can find for it, except for the Fold Edition s pen. It doesn't work right with it at all. If you start a chat session with samsung, they should be able to provide with a sku # for the OEM replacement s pen for the 360 pro, and you can just order it. Or any of the tablet s pens, but do understand the bluetooth features won't work on the galaxy book, that's just on the galaxy s tablets and s series phones.
This was a really great video. Most of this info wasn't even touched in other reviewer vids. What do you think is the best way to go about transferring hundreds of pictures from my s22 ultra to the ssd on the laptop?
Thank you so much, and my apologies for the slow reply. I just got done with back to back eye surgeries. The fastest way to transfer any type of file will be a direct cable connection, usb-c to usb-c. You'll get lighting fast transfer speeds this way, they'll copy over in a few seconds flat.
Hey, I've learned a LOT from your videos !! 😃👍 I have two questions for you . . 1.) Does the Book3 Pro 360 work with the Bluetooth variety of the S pen ? 2.) If so, does said laptop, charge said pen ?
Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it. Sadly, the answer to both questions is No. Well, sort of No. It does work with Bluetooth s pens, like the s pen pro, but you don't get any of the cool added functionality like you do with galaxy tab and s series s pens. But they will work with it. And no, it won't charge it, so you'd want to use the Pro version since it has usb-c charging. I'd just stick with the one that comes with personally.
@@RADERTECH Dude, your most welcome for the comments, and Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, for your very valuable insight !! - I so admire you videos and style, thanks again for being there for me, truly "You Rock" !! 🤘😃👍
Bluetooth connection for S Pen is only design for Air action, like using the pen as a remote shutter of camera (which probably not really needed on a laptop). One cool thing of that air action on a laptop tho (if it's available), is that if you connect to a projector in a PPT presentation, you can press the button on the pen and swing left or right to change slide without touching the screen (which is something you can do on Tab S8)
Amazing video, thanks for sharing! Loved it. Everything has been included in this. Can you please make gaming video of games like GTA 5 where we can see FPS, maximum resolution, and performance. Also this is touch screen pc, so can you try and run mobile games like PUBG, Clash of Clans via Bluestacks app and we can measure its performance? It will be helpful for people who are looking for tablet like experience.
Hi, thanks for watching and for sharing some great video ideas! Yes, I can definitely put together a gaming related video for you. I did a similar one last year for the book2 pro 360, it touched on GTA 5 and Overwatch. I'll do something similar this year, and will try to include some tablet based gaming via Bluestacks, that's a great idea!
Hi Jeffrey, congrats on getting it, that's awesome! You only need to change it one of the 2 spots, I was just showing that it can be done in 2 areas. I would personally open up Dolby Access and enable it from there, and make sure the Dynamic EQ is active to start with. It sounds the best (IMHO) to start with, and you can always tinker with the settings from there.
I know what you mean, it totally sucks and frustrates the heck out of me. I've had the first galaxy book, 2 and 3, all of them have been the same way. Sometimes it seems to stay on for a while, and then other times it just has a mind of it's own. Sorry you're going through the same frustrations with it.
Thanks for the information. Wondering if you could answer a question for me please. The fan on my samsung galaxy book 3 360 is so loud is there a way to reduce this as I have seen that there maybe 3 options? Thanks, Lisa
You're correct, that's the way it is now, unfortunately. But prior to the last couple of updates, it used to let you restart without having to do the fn lock over again, except for updates, it behaved like it does now. It sucks too, I don't like it.
Hi Rader, regarding proper handling: I noticed on the Book 2 Pro 360 that, like you said, there is most screen flex on the side with the hinges while on the other side the display appears pretty solid. Yet almost all review videos show someone painting or writing on it with his/her hand reaching from the side with hinges onto the screen in tablet mode, exposing the soft edge of the screen to the most frequent pressure. This has puzzled me because I always painted on it with my hand coming from the more solid side in tablet mode. Maybe one or two small pieces of adhesive felt on the back of the "soft" edge of the display just thick enough to fill in the small gap between display and chassis will prevent screen flex whenever the hand reaches that area while painting in tablet mode. The same could be done on the front side of the chassis where the soft edge of the display touches down while folded. While renting the device I simply shoved several small sheets of paper into the gap underneath the soft edge of the display, thus eliminating screen flex.
Hi, thanks for stopping by again. You make some great points, and that's also a good idea to help with the flexing. Honestly, I think a lot of folks are just a bit careless too, and that's why they run into problems with cracked screens. We take our tech stuff seriously, but a lot of folks just throw these machines around like they're toys.
The easiest way is to just go to where each of your app's executables are, and then copy/paste it to your desktop, and it will copy at a shortcut by default. Thanks for stopping by.
I really love your videos, especially all the little details and hidden tricks that you mention! 😎 I'm currently thinking about buying one of these Samsung Laptops, however I'm not sure which of these countless models I should pick up... Do you think the normal Versions (like the book 2 or book 3 with i3 or i5) are enough for normal use (mostly office and media) ? Or would you go to the pro's for longevity? I just want a sleek looking 15" laptop with good battery that won't be slow in like 2 years or so and don't want to spend too much. Sorry for the long question and greetings from Germany :)
Hi, thank you so much for watching and for your kind words! Honestly, I think you'll be totally fine with one of the non-pro models for regular office tasks. All of these machines will handle regular tasks with ease. If you don't need the features the pro has, like the pro 360 coming with an s pen, then I would just save the money and go with a non-pro model.
@@RADERTECH thank you very much for your quick response! The difference in prize is about 250€, so I might just go with the non pro Version. Have a nice day! :)
You're welcome, thanks for stopping by. Sorry for the slow reply, I just had eye surgery. I'm a pretty "safe" internet browser, so I use minimal protection. Windows defender and the built in Windows Security suite are all I've been using the last few years, basically since Windows 10.
Hello, thanks for this helpful video, appreciate that. Mine is arriving tomorrow and been wondering if I need an antivirus? Currently on my hp I have Norton deluxe and not sure if I need one for this one too or windows antivirus is enough. Thank you 🙏🏻
You're welcome, thanks for stopping by. It'll come with mcafee pre-installed and the free license lasts for a little while, something like 30 or 60 days. It's a good idea to use something in addition to what's built into Windows, but I personally just use the Windows Security tools (malware, firewall, etc..) since I don't visit too may risky sites. If you can carry over your Norton license, it might not be a bad idea.
For productivity, I'd lean on the Pro version if you can spring for it just because of the higher TDP of the CPU. You get a 28 watt cpu with the pro model, and a 15 watt TDP cpu with the non-pro version. If you're work load is light though (mostly MS Office, web stuff, etc...), either model will work just fine. Thanks for stopping by.
Hi, thanks for watching, and my apologies for the slow reply. What are you studying if you don't mind me asking? Being a student is a broad thing nowadays, seems it really depends on what your major and minor are.
Hey, great video! I've just got one and loving so far. I have a HDR question. Samsung settings don't let me control HDR settings if windows is managing them. That didn't seem to be the case in your video. Any suggestions?
I think that setting has changed since I put out this video, it's a bit different on the latest book4 pro 360 as well. My apologies for the super slow reply, I had a bunch of old comments just magically show up, lol. I hope you're having a great weekend.
@@RADERTECH no worries, I still appreciate the reply. I'm more than happy with the screen regardless. The book 4 pro looks great but I traded in my old Zenbook Duo and £200 for one, which already had pretty good screen(s) but not oled. I think this will keep me happy for a while yet, though the screen durability does worry me a little.
Thank you for this review. It helped significantly. Question: Do you know how to enable Privacy Screen setting on this Book3 Pro 360? It was easy to find on the other 360 models buy I can't find it on this one... Maybe it does not have it. Thank you in advanced.
I am moving from a Lenovo LCD display to this samsung OLED display and facing using of eye strain? Is it normal with OLED laptops and any suggestions to help with better viewing experience. For starters, I am already using dark mode with adaptive brightness and blue light filter.
Hi, thanks for watching! You may be suffering from something knows as PWM Flicker. Samsung uses pulse width modulation on their OLED panels, and some folks can be sensitive to it. The biggest thing that seems to help folks that suffer from this is to turn the brightness up higher than what you normally would. PWM usually goes away for the most part at higher brightness levels. If this doesn't help, it may be a case that you're just not going to be okay with OLED based panels that use PWM. If that turns out to be the case, I'd suggest returning it, because you'll just end up suffering in the long run.
Do you use a screen protector? If you do do you have any that you can recommend? I just got a galaxy book 3 pro 360 16" and am looking for protection accessories!
when we turn into tab mode i.e. flip it 360 then the speakers don't change their direction...that is to say the left and right sound don't flip and we basically hear opposite sounds after flipping 360..that is not good at all..
Oh wow, that's crazy! I honestly never noticed, but then again I was never really listening for that. That actually really sucks, thanks for sharing this info.
Thanks for this guide! I also purchased the GB3 Pro 360 in June. For University, I use OneNote, but it's absolutely horrible, I did anything mentioned on the internet, but none helped so far. Looking up notes is fine but taking them on PDF I imported is laging, stuttering or completely shutting down, and it's freezing so hard. Any recommendations?
Thanks for stopping by, and my apologies for the slow reply. I've been away for a couple eye surgeries. I honestly don't use OneNote anymore. I used to use it all the time for work, but I got away from it when I switched companies. I test it from time to time for the channel, but I'm not a fan of it on the galaxy books nor the tablets. I typically use Samsung Notes, and will occasionally import stuff from OneNote, though it's a bit janky. I'm sorry I can't be of much help, I get frustrated with it too!
My S Pen has completely disappeared! I’ve tried checking updates, drivers and even resetting the laptop as a new device. Feel like I’ve completely lost the laptop. Any help???
Hi, thanks for watching. Well, thankfully there's no actual "real" connection to the laptop. It doesn't use bluetooth, nor hold a constant connection to the laptop. It's mostly likely a device driver issue, or you have an update pending in the Samsung Update app. Start by checking Device Manager for any device conflicts, then check Samsung Updates. It should just work though, especially with apps like Samsung Notes.
My question has to do with my desktop. I somehow unpinned the desktop folder in my file explorer. I don't know if you understand what I'm saying but when you go into file explorer all the way on the left hand side you have devices and folders that you can click on. In the middle section all the way to the left there are several things that are pinned such as the desktop, documents, videos, pictures Etcetera. My question is how do I repin the desktop folder to that middle section. What I did but I deleted something and now I can't get the folder pinned again.
Thanks for another visit my friend, and my apologies for the slow reply. I took a little break from youtube for back to back eye surgeries. I know what you mean, but I've never experienced it myself. I did find these instructions online though that may be helpful: Here's how to show the desktop in File Explorer: Open File Explorer Click Desktop in the left-hand sidebar If the sidebar isn't visible, use View > Show > Navigation Pane You can also add the desktop to the quick access menu in File Explorer: Click Quick Access from the left side of File Explorer Select the item to add Right click on the item Choose Pin to Quick access To make File Explorer open to This PC instead of Quick Access, you can: Go to the View tab Select Options In the Open File Explorer to list, select This PC Select Apply You can also open the Desktop folder by typing shell:Desktop into the address bar of File Explorer.
@RADERTECH Thank you, thank you, thank you! This fixed the problem perfectly . Sorry to hear about the surgeries. I hope things work out for you. I watch your channel all the time. Thanks for being so informative. You make things very easy to understand. Oh...and keep em coming!
great video, helped a lot to get used to my new book 3 pro. Also i agree that chrome and McAfee being total resource hogs. What programs would you suggest as better replacements for those two?
I personally just use Windows Defender and the built in Security tools (malware removal tool, firewall, etc..). Pretty much anything else besides McAfee is pretty good, I can't stand McAfee. I used to like it about 10 years ago, but now it feels like the marketing team is handling the app more than the dev team, lol. Thanks for stopping by!
@@RADERTECH yeah it almost seems like their budget is only used for marketing lol what about chrome? do you know any better browser that is more efficient? or did they fix their problems?
I noticed that too a long time ago, I figured they would have fixed that by now. It does support HDR for sure though, so no worries really. Thanks for stopping by!
Great video for future use with my new Book 3 although, I have a question pertaining to Samsung Secure Folder. I was hoping there is a way with a hack or not to get this on my Book 3. I know it's windows and not android based but after activating Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA) with Google Play I am not seeing it available yet. Maybe there is a similar feature but was wanting for backup purposes from my galaxy phone. Thanks in advance for any helps, tips or tricks with this if any.
Hi, thanks for stopping by and watching. That's a good point, and one I've never looked into. If I had to put a guess as to why it's not possible (or at least easily), is because Secure Folder would have to load up another instance of the emulated android system, the one creatable via the Subsystem components you mentioned. It's likely a limitation of securely running the second instance inside of itself, if that makes sense? I could be talking out my rear though, just guessing based on my experience with WSA.
Thank you so much! I'm truly sorry for the slow reply, I've been away for 2 cataract eye surgeries. Thanks again for the super nice comment, I appreciate you!
How to know UA-cam is watching me: I just ordered one 20 minutes ago and this just showed up in my recommendations. Well, sod it, might as well watch, maybe it'll be useful.
Nice! Congrats on getting it! Sorry for the slow reply, I've been away for back to back eye surgeries. Feel free to shoot me any questions you have about it, I've been using these galaxy books for a few years now, so happy to help.
@@RADERTECH Thanks man and no worries, hope your eye surgeries went well. And the laptop only arrived today (had to wait for stock) but useful tour of the laptop here, followed some of them when setting up. And I was surprised Atmos was not on by default either, makes me wonder how many people miss it.
Hi radar, just a quick question, was looking at buying this laptop and was just wondering what average battery life was like, will mostly use it for student work and what not with light gaming and movie watching.
Hi Barney, thanks for watching! It's too early for me to comment yet on it, I should have some better inputs when I spend a lot of time with this weekend. So far, it seems like it's a little better than last year's model, but I'm not sure by how much yet.
I got the Book3 on February 17... i had the Book 2 prior for a few months and gave it to my mom because she needed a laptop. Anyway, something different happened with the Book3... it is zoomed in somehow and I can't figure out how to make it normal. I went to the zoom settings and went down 1 notch from the "recommended" zoom but thats not right either. Do you know whats up?
Hi Jennifer, thanks for watching and congrats on getting the Book3! It sounds like your Windows Scaling in set to high. Right-click on an empty spot of your desktop and select Display Properties. On that main page, there should be a setting for Windows Scaling. On the newer Book3 model, I'm pretty sure the default is 200%, since it's a 3K display. Also make sure the screen resolution is set to 2880x1800 on that same screen. Happy to help further if this doesn't help.
Hello, anyone have touchpad lag with small moves of your finger? precise move of the mouse with the touchpad is almost imposible... Galaxy Book 3 Ultra here.
Thanks for stopping by. I do, on my book pro 360, which has the same trackpad as your Ultra. It gets super frustrating, and I always just end up using my logitech mx master mouse instead. I'm not a fan of the trackpad on these latest galaxy books.
Great video!!! Can you guide how to increase the SSD capacity? I need to increase the capacity, was wondering if there is extra slot or not and if it is there what form factor ssd would go into that.
Thank you so much! I can walk you through it right here. There's an extra 2280 slot towards the upper right corner, assuming you have the machine flipped over the back taken off. So you can use a 2230 or 2280, last year we just had 2230, and 2280 on the original book pro 360. You can upgrade the included one if you want as well. I'd personally just throw a secondary one in and be done with it. Doing a clean windows install on these galaxy books is a bit of a pain, especially if you want to get every re-installed, including the baked in Dolby Atmos license. It can get a bit tricky and time consumining. The latest SSD install on the book3 pro 360 I see on reddit is for a "SN770 M.2 2280 2 TB" in the secondary slot. As with most things reddit, take with a grain of salt.
@@RADERTECH Thanks for such a elaborate crystal clear answer. Yes, I am also planning to go with 2TB 2280 ssd as secondary storage. I was thinking to do a clean install of windows 11, but as you catuioned, I shall wait for sometime to get a better insinght!
Don't worry, that's not true. There are 2 slots, 100% confirmed. Here's a reddit post with the back taken off so you can take a look. Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for stopping by! Samsung Notes is my personal favorite. many folks also like OneNote a lot too, though I don't like the palm regection as much. NoteShelf is another option for journeling type stuff, and the buit in Pen-Up app is fun for sketches and coloring. Clip Studio Paint is a higher end subscription based drawing app that a lot of people seem to like as well.
Hi, thanks for watching! No, DeX doesn't come installed on this machine. That's android based only, and doesn't run on Windows PC's. There may be a hack to do so, but none that I know of. But with Windows already being a multi-tasking OS, the need for DeX isn't really there. You can connect to it and use DeX that way, and the DeX PC companion app of course work on it.
Thanks for stopping by, and my apologies for the slow response. I've been away for back to back eye surgeries. I always leave mine in Optimized mode, like nearly 100% of the time. It offers the best balance of heat, power and battery IMHO.
the function f12 lock on reboot is still not fixed. I just got the galaxy book pro 3 360 and the f12 lock turns off every time i restart or turn on the computer.
Hi, thanks for watching! It's so weird, a few others are saying the same thing. I tried it again on mine just yesterday, and it's still working as expected. It stays locked if I had it locked, and not if I don't. I'm going to demo this in next week's Q&A video that will be out on Wednesday, just so we're all on the same page.
@@RADERTECH Thanks for a good video! Yes, really strange. I have the same issue: it is reset to the default upon restart/shutdown. I have the non-360 Book3 pro version. Maybe it's a firmware update that everyone didn't receive yet.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR REPLYING BACK CAUSE NO ONE ELSE DID,u were the 15th site I asked the same question to. But my husband came home and asked why I looked like the world was bout to end an I was the person to spread the word,lmfao. True story this man took my laptop and man handled it,with care of course,didn't I tell not to do this crap in the first place. UMM yup! But Bae I'm lost without you ;) 3 seconds later safely out,well darn. I SAW U KEPT ASKING DIFF CHANELS SO INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR U TO ASK ME I CAME TO DO IT FOR U♡♡♡♡♡♡
Hi John, thanks for watching. As long as the edits aren't overly complex and you're not using blender or other animations often, it should work well. I haven't tested editing yet on this year's machine, but I used Davinci Resolve 18 for a month straight on last year's model on edits for this channel and it worked great.
Sorry for the slow reply, been away for a couple of eye surgeries. That doesn't sound right, not at all. It should just be a matter of pressing Fn+F12 to toggle it on and off. If that doesn't work, I'd check for both Windows Updates and Samsung Updates via the Samsung Updates app, and then do a full restart. If all that doesn't work, I'd contact the seller for a return or refund. Thanks for stopping by.
I just ordered the galaxy book3 pro 14". Might be a stupid question but can I bump the resolution down to something like 1920x1200 w/60hz refresh to save battery life if I wanted to? Also, do you know if these devices are linux compatible? I'm thinking about installing a 2nd SSD in the 2nd slot it has and having windows/linux on separate drives.
Hi, thanks for the great questions, and I'm sorry for the slow response. Yes to all of your questions :) You can scale down in resolution, including 1080p, and also force it to 60hz, 120hz, or have it switch on its own - it's pretty sweet. Linux is no issue at all, there's plenty of reddit posts and forums where folks dive deep into running Linux on the Galaxy Books. You should have minimal to no issues running it from what I'm seeing.
If that is the cause of cracked screens, then Samsung needs to redesign the hinge area to stiffen the area. No point in having such a thin & light laptop, if you have to completely baby it. Makes more sense to go with a more physically robust machine. I need a laptop that can live up-to being carried around in my 40L backpack’s laptop compartment. Which like most travel bags these days, is right up against your back.
Hi, thanks for watching. You don't have to complete baby it, but you do want to make sure you're not putting much weight directly up against it, say from a lot of books pressing up against it while it's on your back. This isn't the machine for that, you'd want something like a ThinkPad, it's designed to take more abuse. I personally beat the crap out of mine, the new model is made out of Aluminium, so it's not flexing or breaking easy. But if you're throwing it in a full backpack ofthen, I"d probably go with another model personally.
@@RADERTECH Thanks for the reply and I will keep that in mind when I'm ready to pull the trigger on a new machine.... I'm attracted to the 2-1's because I do enjoy drawing when I get the itch. My trading platform is also designed with touch capabilities in mind. Don't hardly game. What do you think of the latest HP Spectr 360 with the ARC gpu? I also want high res. I like my charts to look crisp.
Yeah, they removed it shortly after release, it stopped working after the third or fourth update. I thought it was here to stay, no dice. Thanks for stopping by.
This comparison sounds like a great video idea, thank you! Oh wow, this is a tough one. If you value s pen input, the tab s8 ultra destroys the book3 pro 360, hands down. But for media consumption and web browsing, oh my, that's a close call. I'd have to give the slight nod to the book3 pro 360. For Excel, it really depends on if you can get by with the android version, or if you need the full fledged MS Office 365 version that you can install locally - for VBA support, macros, advanced formulas, all that jazz. In that case, i'ld lean more on the book3 360. If I didn't have a laptop and a tablet already and could only get one - Book3 Pro 360, you'll be able to get more done with it.
@@RADERTECH Thank you for the response. True, it can be a great video since both products offer a lot of similar things. Price difference is not much. In France, top variant of S8 ultra with keyboard cost around 2100€, and same is the price of Book 360. Both have great displays. Book 360, being really slim and foldable provides similar experience like a tab, although a bit bulkier than tab but offers Windows 11 which balances the trade off. So these 2 products are really similar. Very to difficult to choose one, this will be great video. Waiting for it.
regarding the things you mentioned, the only thing that Tab S8 is NOT going to win is Excel. Because the Android version MS 365 is a simplified version, you get much fewer options/functions, or maybe it's there, but you need to dig into and find it. But for media consumption or web browsing, the android versions are much smoother (just simply like the UA-cam app on Android vs the Windows store App version vs the youtube on web browser)Android is definitely the smoothest, and you can watch the video but still read the comment at the same time, but web version? once you scroll down for comments, you can't see the video. On hardware side, on TAB S8 U, you won't feel ANY heat even after 2hrs of video, but the laptop will still have a bit of heat, or you have to turn off the silent mode to let the fan run, but it's gonna make some noise, that's another problem. Don't get me wrong, the Book 3 pro 360 is a fantastic piece of art, if you need more connectivity, a better keyboard, running Wndows software (you can emulate Android apps on Wndows but not another way around. put it simple. If you mainly just read Excel files and do a little edit, Tab S8 U. If you need to build an Excel file from scrap and want to do a proper one, then Book 3 pro 360
I feel totally safe doing it, I've never had an issue with any of the galaxy book screens, I've owned the last 3 "pro 360 models". I'm careful though. Thanks for stopping by.
@@RADERTECH Thanks, I have no idea what's new because I switched the S10 + to the S23 ultra and that's a lot, especially with the new ui and Android version It's very unusual for me, but after a few days I found my way around
Are there any good options for easy music controls? I'm coming off a laptop where the F keys had play/pause skip and back as defaults, now I'm kind of annoyed how manually I have to change songs
Check out AutoHotKey. It lets you setup a quick script to map a few of your function keys to play/pause, and skip track and prev track. Thanks for stopping by.
This was the first clip that came up when searching for Remove bloatware Samsung Galaxy Book 3. But the video is about the pro, tips aren't relevant and no bloatwarehelp, ugh!
Hi, thanks for watching! Oh wow, that's crazy that this video showed up first when searching for "remove bloatware". I'm sorry this video wasn't helpful for your particular machine, this one is scpecifically for the book3 pro 360 model. Besides McAfee, most folks would want to keep most of the Samsung apps, like S Notes, Quickshare/linkshare, Screen Recorder, stuff like that. While other apps, like the Samsung Gallery app, are quite questionable, since it's already a built-in feature of Windows. I'll feature this in an upcoiming Q&A video, you bring up a good point.
No, I don't think that's an option on the galaxy laptops, but then again I've never tried. I'd be very surprised if it was an option on it. But it doesn't hurt to check the Microsoft Store for "Samsung Pass" and see if it's there for download. I would for you right now, but I'm on my work laptop and they all that stuff blocked. Thanks for watching!
What happens if you do a clean install of Windows? I usually do that to get rid of bloat (like I saw TikTok is pre-installed on there) but I actually do want to keep a lot of Samsung's stuff. Can you reinstall those programs?
Hi, thanks for stopping by. Yes, you do a fresh install, I've seen plenty of folks talking about it on reddit. Once you have the installation wrapped up, you should be able to install the Samsung Update app from MS store (I'd check prior to make sure), then from there you can start hand picking which Samsung apps and services you want to install. I'm sure you'll into a couple of snags along the way, but I can't imagine it being too bad.
Hi Ben, thanks for watching. I've been hearing of this happening for a few folks now, hopefully this doesn't become the new normal. I just did a couple test on mine to see if the behavior on mine has changed. I did a regular Restart, and I also did a complete Shut-down and started it back up fresh. Both times, the Fn key remained locked, it didn't change. I promise I'm doing anything else special, just one press of Fn+F12, and I haven't pressed it again since. Well, one time I recall having to after a firmware update, but that's the only time I can remember. Please check the Samsung Update app on the laptop to make sure you have all the latest updates. But for me personally, it's just always worked regardlesss if I'm on the latest updates or not. Are you in the United States? I'm trying to get a feel for this issue, as it seems odd to only be impacting some users. Also, do you have the Book3 Pro 360, or regular Book3 laptop? I'm wondering if it may be model specific.
No, not really that I can think of, I'm sorry that's happening on yours. Perhaps check windows updates and samsung updates for an update to the driver. If that doesn't help, I'd consider contacting Samsung, especailly if you're in good wifi range and are still experiencing this. The connection should be rock solid. Thanks for stopping by, and my apologies for the slow reply.
You should definetely have the option, it's default with the laptop. I don't think you can not have it, it's just there. It should be right where I mentioned it in this video. Please make sure you have all of the latest updates, both windows updates and samsung updates.
@@RADERTECH I checked as I was watching it also did some more research, some said it’s only on the 15.6” and I have the 13.3”. Wish i knew that before hand
I don't recall you mentioning Dolby Access before. I turned that on on my OG Galaxy Book Pro 360 - What a difference! This is why I watch your videos, even for devices that I haven't upgraded to. You have some of the most useful Samsung centered videos out there. Keep up the great work.
Hi Dan, thanks for another visit! It's actually in the very first video I ever posted on this channel, seems like forever ago, lol! It sure does make a HUGE difference, and I'm just stunned that Samsung has it disabled out of the box on this year's model and the original GB Pro 360. Strange thing though, I'm almost certain it was enabled by default on last year's book2 pro 360. One year off, one year on, one year off, ha ha.
I wish the Book3 had a hole to inser the Pen like the S23 Ultra does. That's seriously so helpful.
I agree, and thank you for stopping by again. There's an older model called teh Flex (I think, pretty sure) that had a silo for the s pen. But so far, none of the galaxy book machines have had it. It sure would be nice, I'm always afraid of losing it.
At the time when the Flex selling (the Flex line has stopped at the 11th Gen Intel, call Flex 2), people are complaining the S Pen is too tiny, not great for drawing only acceptable for casual note taking, that's probably why Samsung hasn't update that range any more.
There is so much space where the pen, could possibly be inserted...but no.. let's keep it outside, users might lose it so we can sell them later...😅.
You should get the Wacom staedtler pen. It's a real wood pencil with a Wacom tip. I would swap the tip from the Samsung pen but that's a preference thing.
@@RADERTECHim getting a cover for it with a strap to attach the S Pen
Thank your doing these tips & tricks videos.
Tips & tricks was the reason I started watching UA-cam tech videos.
Now 5 years later, no one does them anymore.
You're welcome, and thank you so much for watching! I enjoy doing these tips and tricks videos, along with the "how-to" videos, they're always fun to make.
I'm 6 minutes in with my galaxy book 3 360 NON-pro, and already the dolby atmos tip helped alot, along with the screen brightness tips. So definitely some of these tips will also work with the non-pro model.
That's awesome, I'm glad those tips were helpful.
Very helpful and informative. Thanks to your review on Galaxy Book2 Pro 360, I purchased it last year. Now I upgraded to Galaxy Book3 Pro 360. I really love 16:10 aspect ratio and 120 Hz screen.
The screen upgrades sure are nice, congrats on getting it!
I'm still waiting for my galaxy book 3 ultra while watching this video. I will follow your instructions once I get it. Thank you for the information! :)
Hi Joy, thanks for watching! Oh wow, congrats on getting the book3 Ultra, that's so awesome! Please let me know what you think of it after you get it and have spent some time with it. I'm a bit jealous!
Thank you very much for the clear and articulate explanation, and for sharing such a wealth of knowledge with us. Blessings to you.
You're welcome, and thank you so much for this ultra nice comment! You just made my day! I hope you're having a fantastic weekend!
great tips, ty for doing this! Heading to Best Buy this weekend to pick up one of these, so perfect timing for me.
That's so awesome, congrats on getting it. It's a nice machine, for sure. Thanks for stopping by and watching!
I grabbed this laptop yesterday and your video is very helpful. Thanks a lot!
Another great video! I am sticking with my Book 2 Pro 360 still, because it is like brand new and works just fine for what I do.
Hey P Z, thanks for another visit my friend. Oh yeah, no need to upgrade at all, the book2 is still a fantastic machine.
very useful tips, thank you for much! Now I can get the most out of my galaxy book ultra

Excellent video for setting up the Book 3 Pro
Thank you so much! I appreciate you stopping by again and watching!
Amazing video as always! Best channel for Samsung users on yt. I wonder what happened to the function that used to come on the Samsung security app that allowed the machine to take a picture of the person if they put the wrong password 🤔
Thank you so much for your kind words, I greatly appreciate it! That's a great question. I remember trying out that setting on last year's model, but don't recall seeing it on this year's, though I honestly haven't been looking for it. Well, I am now, lol. If I come across it, i'll try to remember to reply back to you with an update.
Thank you ! On point & clear/fast delivery of information
You're welcome, and thank you so much for the nice comment!
When I go to dolby it keeps asking me to purchase
Thanks so much friend. I bought a Pro - 360 yesterday and felt a little overwhelmed. But after watching your video, I feel far more comfortable. Cheers!
You're welcome my friend, and thanks again for another visit! I'm glad this video was helpful. I have a couple videos in the works for this awesome machine, including the full long term review that's long overdue.
That would be great. Looking forward
Keep up the good work
Also Sir, I would like to ask,
1. Is the RAM Soldered in, or is it removable and expandable ?
Similarly, is the SSD Soldered in or is it expandable?
2. Also Sir, does it also have the Samsung Secure Folder 📁 where we can securely store and hide our files, like it does in Samsung Smartphones and Tablets?
Thanks in Advance. ❤
Hi, thanks for watching!
1. Yes, the RAM is soldered on and can't be upgraded. The SSD is not soldered, you can replace it and also install a second SSD if you like.
2. Yes, it does have a version of Secure Folder called Privacy Folder that's found in the Samsung Security app. You also have File Tracker, which breaks down usage very well.
@@RADERTECHThank you so much Sir for Clearing my doubts ❤ Have a Great Day 🤗❤🙌🙏🥰
Super helpful. Thanks for doing this. You didn't explicitly mention where to configure the 'limit battery charge' feature to extend the battery lifetime of the laptop, but I found it in the samsung settings app. (Battery Performance --> Protect Battery) What a great feature to extend the useful life of the machines battery over many years of use!
Thank you so much, and I apologize for not showing that in this particular video. I think I covered it in a couple others and just blanked out on including it in this, sorry about that. Thanks for stopping by!

@@RADERTECH what are you using to transport it. Im looking into laptop backpacks and slevves
Can you make a video about how to maximize performance? Like all the tips and tricks about how to run as smooth as possible. How to make chrome, one note, windows, and other Samsung apps run smooth as possible. For me as a student, I don’t mind having my laptop always plugged in as long as my programs are running optimally.
Hi Ryan, thanks for watching! Yes, I can absolutely do that, that's a great video idea - Thank you!
That would be amazing! I am really on the fence about waiting for updates to come in and taking it back. Applications like Onenote are extremely laggy (particularly the lasso tool). I have reduced the overal background ram usage and its still not as smooth as my previous 16 gb pc.
I don't have an option for sound settings in Samsung settings. Also I can't use Dolby Access as it demands a payment to bring up the settings.
same thing is happening to me, I'm so confused
thanks. You mentioned things others didn't mention in the many other videos I watched about this laptop
You're welcome, thanks for stopping by and watching.
Thanks man, are u using a samsung phone or tablet? how is the experience connecting everything together?
You're welcome, thank you for watching. That's a really great question. Yes, I use a galaxy tab s8 ultra and a S23 Ultra with it. I'll tell you what, I'll go ahead and briefile answer in the next Q&A video that will be out on Wednesday, but I'm also flagging this for a dedicated video. I think it's a really good idea to get that info out there, thanks for the great idea!
thanks for all your help , i have the non pro version but most of your tips work well for my gb 3 great video
You're welcome, and I'm so sorry for the slow reply. I've been away for a couple eye surgeries. I'm glad these tips were helpful.
Hi great video.. I purchased the Samsung pro 3 to use with waves LV1 sound system mainly because of the touchscreen, but when I heard the default sound it was dreadful in comparison to my Lenovo despite it been 2k more expensive!!
Still I’m hoping to get the sound right…
Could you tell me how I can stop the screen colour from fading in snd out… I tried everything 🙈
The sound is pretty terrible until you enable Dolby Atmos, it helps a lot. I don't have any issues with colors fading in and out, that sounds very odd. I would suggest going into your Display Settings, and check for things like HDR turning on automatically and also the color profile mode you're in.
@@RADERTECH many thnx 🙏
Great tips and very well explained! Super thanks for this tutorial !! 🙂
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! Thanks for stopping by.
It would be cool to see how they have upgraded multi-control. Im probably going to rock with a book 2 due to cost. They look awesome.
Hey Charles! I'll be testing it out soon, I'm not even sure yet if there's new that's been added to it. Last year's model is awesome my friend. From a performance standpoint, there's not a big difference from what I can tell so far.
other than cost, are there any reason you went towards book 2?
Nice video. Thanks for putting this together 👍
You're welcome JC, thanks for watching!
Hello, I just wanted to thank you for pointing out the places where the s pen can magnetically attach to. I could not find it myself and, for some reason, this info was nowhere online. I even saw a post where it said that it actually didn't come with a spot for the s pen to attach to which kinda bummed me out. Thanks to you though, I now know about it which would've been the main turning point for me regarding keeping the laptop or not. Great video, by the way, I appreciate the time stamps.
Hi Marwan, thanks for watching and for the really nice comment, I appreciate you. I'm glad this video was helpful, and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have about it.
God the 120hz is such a difference wtf. I used the dynamic all the time, but damn having this turned on???? everything is so silky smooth!
Agreed, 100%! I keep it locked at 120, at all times, there's no turning back. Thanks for watching!
Implementing ALL these settings now. Thank you for sharing. Can you recommend any laptops from Asus that would be similar in performance and features to the Galaxy Book. I like the laptop but want to test it against other options.
Thanks for stopping by. I think the Zenbook line from Asus is the closest competitor to this particular machine. It's a little bit cheaper, but the performance is pretty good on them.
@@RADERTECH thanks!

Awesome video! I'm 53 and always used desk tops. I pre-ordered this one and was very disappointed in the sound. Especially since the S8 Ultra tab sounds amazing. I really appreciate the info on improving the sound. 1 question do you know if Samsung TV is available on it?
Update: 2 more questions
What browser and anti virus do you recommend?
Thanks
HI, thank you so much for watching! I'm glad the audio tip was useful, that sure is a big one on these galaxy book laptops.
Samsung TV? No
Browser? Edge and FIrefox, mostly Edge these days. I still use Chrome for it's extensions though, I'm kind of stuck relying on a couple of them.
Anti-Virus? I sue the default Windows Defender and Malware Protection that's already pre-installed. After you uninstall McAfee, type Anti Virus in the start menu, and that will take you to a settings page that will let you pick Windows Defender as your default anti-virus.
@@RADERTECH thanks for the information. I appreciate your helpful and informative videos
Amazing video man. I do hae a few questions, i bought a GB3 360 13inch, but it didnt come with the s pen included, what pen model should i get that would work with it? Also can the keycaps of the laptop be changed/swapped in places? Scared to try ripping it open
Thank you, appreciate you watching! Don't pull on those keycaps, it's not that type of keyboard. You're stuck with what's there, please don't try to customize it.
You can use any s pen you can find for it, except for the Fold Edition s pen. It doesn't work right with it at all. If you start a chat session with samsung, they should be able to provide with a sku # for the OEM replacement s pen for the 360 pro, and you can just order it. Or any of the tablet s pens, but do understand the bluetooth features won't work on the galaxy book, that's just on the galaxy s tablets and s series phones.
This was a really great video. Most of this info wasn't even touched in other reviewer vids. What do you think is the best way to go about transferring hundreds of pictures from my s22 ultra to the ssd on the laptop?
Thank you so much, and my apologies for the slow reply. I just got done with back to back eye surgeries. The fastest way to transfer any type of file will be a direct cable connection, usb-c to usb-c. You'll get lighting fast transfer speeds this way, they'll copy over in a few seconds flat.
Hey, I've learned a LOT from your videos !! 😃👍 I have two questions for you . .
1.) Does the Book3 Pro 360 work with the Bluetooth variety of the S pen ?
2.) If so, does said laptop, charge said pen ?
Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it. Sadly, the answer to both questions is No. Well, sort of No. It does work with Bluetooth s pens, like the s pen pro, but you don't get any of the cool added functionality like you do with galaxy tab and s series s pens. But they will work with it. And no, it won't charge it, so you'd want to use the Pro version since it has usb-c charging. I'd just stick with the one that comes with personally.

Dude, your most welcome for the comments, and Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, for your very valuable insight !!
- I so admire you videos and style, thanks again for being there for me, truly "You Rock" !!
🤘😃👍
Bluetooth connection for S Pen is only design for Air action, like using the pen as a remote shutter of camera (which probably not really needed on a laptop). One cool thing of that air action on a laptop tho (if it's available), is that if you connect to a projector in a PPT presentation, you can press the button on the pen and swing left or right to change slide without touching the screen (which is something you can do on Tab S8)
Finally got mine yesterday N here fo the 2nd time 🤝
Congrats on getting it my friend, that's so awesome!
Amazing video, thanks for sharing! Loved it. Everything has been included in this. Can you please make gaming video of games like GTA 5 where we can see FPS, maximum resolution, and performance. Also this is touch screen pc, so can you try and run mobile games like PUBG, Clash of Clans via Bluestacks app and we can measure its performance? It will be helpful for people who are looking for tablet like experience.
Hi, thanks for watching and for sharing some great video ideas! Yes, I can definitely put together a gaming related video for you. I did a similar one last year for the book2 pro 360, it touched on GTA 5 and Overwatch. I'll do something similar this year, and will try to include some tablet based gaming via Bluestacks, that's a great idea!
Great video! love my new GB3P360. A bit confused on the Dolby Atmos. Should I tick it on both in Windows settings and Samsung settings?
Hi Jeffrey, congrats on getting it, that's awesome! You only need to change it one of the 2 spots, I was just showing that it can be done in 2 areas. I would personally open up Dolby Access and enable it from there, and make sure the Dynamic EQ is active to start with. It sounds the best (IMHO) to start with, and you can always tinker with the settings from there.
Anyone figured out how to keep the keyboard backlight on at all time? Not just when ambient light is low? Thanks!
I know what you mean, it totally sucks and frustrates the heck out of me. I've had the first galaxy book, 2 and 3, all of them have been the same way. Sometimes it seems to stay on for a while, and then other times it just has a mind of it's own. Sorry you're going through the same frustrations with it.
Thanks for the information. Wondering if you could answer a question for me please. The fan on my samsung galaxy book 3 360 is so loud is there a way to reduce this as I have seen that there maybe 3 options? Thanks, Lisa
Insane video mate...Please do the same for Galaxy Book4 Pro 360 that is up for release in a couple of days. Thanks!
Is it dropping that soon? I haven't heard anything new on the release date, but honestly I haven't checked lately either. Thanks for the heads-up.

That's untrue about the FN+F12. When I restart my computer, it has to be pressed again.
You're correct, that's the way it is now, unfortunately. But prior to the last couple of updates, it used to let you restart without having to do the fn lock over again, except for updates, it behaved like it does now. It sucks too, I don't like it.
Hi Rader, regarding proper handling: I noticed on the Book 2 Pro 360 that, like you said, there is most screen flex on the side with the hinges while on the other side the display appears pretty solid. Yet almost all review videos show someone painting or writing on it with his/her hand reaching from the side with hinges onto the screen in tablet mode, exposing the soft edge of the screen to the most frequent pressure.
This has puzzled me because I always painted on it with my hand coming from the more solid side in tablet mode.
Maybe one or two small pieces of adhesive felt on the back of the "soft" edge of the display just thick enough to fill in the small gap between display and chassis will prevent screen flex whenever the hand reaches that area while painting in tablet mode.
The same could be done on the front side of the chassis where the soft edge of the display touches down while folded. While renting the device I simply shoved several small sheets of paper into the gap underneath the soft edge of the display, thus eliminating screen flex.
Hi, thanks for stopping by again. You make some great points, and that's also a good idea to help with the flexing. Honestly, I think a lot of folks are just a bit careless too, and that's why they run into problems with cracked screens. We take our tech stuff seriously, but a lot of folks just throw these machines around like they're toys.
How do you put shortcuts to apps on the homescreen of the galaxy book3? It's driving me insane
The easiest way is to just go to where each of your app's executables are, and then copy/paste it to your desktop, and it will copy at a shortcut by default. Thanks for stopping by.
I really love your videos, especially all the little details and hidden tricks that you mention! 😎
I'm currently thinking about buying one of these Samsung Laptops, however I'm not sure which of these countless models I should pick up...
Do you think the normal Versions (like the book 2 or book 3 with i3 or i5) are enough for normal use (mostly office and media) ? Or would you go to the pro's for longevity?
I just want a sleek looking 15" laptop with good battery that won't be slow in like 2 years or so and don't want to spend too much.
Sorry for the long question and greetings from Germany :)
Hi, thank you so much for watching and for your kind words! Honestly, I think you'll be totally fine with one of the non-pro models for regular office tasks. All of these machines will handle regular tasks with ease. If you don't need the features the pro has, like the pro 360 coming with an s pen, then I would just save the money and go with a non-pro model.
@@RADERTECH thank you very much for your quick response! The difference in prize is about 250€, so I might just go with the non pro Version. Have a nice day! :)

You're welcome, thanks for stopping by. It'll come with mcafee pre-installed and the free license lasts for a little while, something like 30 or 60 days. It's a good idea to use something in addition to what's built into Windows, but I personally just use the Windows Security tools (malware, firewall, etc..) since I don't visit too may risky sites. If you can carry over your Norton license, it might not be a bad idea.
You very good, thank you 😊
If you had to choose between the 3 pro 360 vs 3 360, which one would you go with? For productivity work. Thank you
For productivity, I'd lean on the Pro version if you can spring for it just because of the higher TDP of the CPU. You get a 28 watt cpu with the pro model, and a 15 watt TDP cpu with the non-pro version. If you're work load is light though (mostly MS Office, web stuff, etc...), either model will work just fine.

Hey, great video! I've just got one and loving so far. I have a HDR question. Samsung settings don't let me control HDR settings if windows is managing them. That didn't seem to be the case in your video. Any suggestions?
I think that setting has changed since I put out this video, it's a bit different on the latest book4 pro 360 as well. My apologies for the super slow reply, I had a bunch of old comments just magically show up, lol. I hope you're having a great weekend.
@@RADERTECH no worries, I still appreciate the reply. I'm more than happy with the screen regardless. The book 4 pro looks great but I traded in my old Zenbook Duo and £200 for one, which already had pretty good screen(s) but not oled. I think this will keep me happy for a while yet, though the screen durability does worry me a little.
Thank you for this review. It helped significantly. Question: Do you know how to enable Privacy Screen setting
on this Book3 Pro 360? It was easy to find on the other 360 models buy I can't find it on this one... Maybe it does not have it. Thank you in advanced.
I am moving from a Lenovo LCD display to this samsung OLED display and facing using of eye strain? Is it normal with OLED laptops and any suggestions to help with better viewing experience. For starters, I am already using dark mode with adaptive brightness and blue light filter.
Hi, thanks for watching! You may be suffering from something knows as PWM Flicker. Samsung uses pulse width modulation on their OLED panels, and some folks can be sensitive to it. The biggest thing that seems to help folks that suffer from this is to turn the brightness up higher than what you normally would. PWM usually goes away for the most part at higher brightness levels. If this doesn't help, it may be a case that you're just not going to be okay with OLED based panels that use PWM. If that turns out to be the case, I'd suggest returning it, because you'll just end up suffering in the long run.
Do you use a screen protector? If you do do you have any that you can recommend? I just got a galaxy book 3 pro 360 16" and am looking for protection accessories!
when we turn into tab mode i.e. flip it 360 then the speakers don't change their direction...that is to say the left and right sound don't flip and we basically hear opposite sounds after flipping 360..that is not good at all..
Oh wow, that's crazy! I honestly never noticed, but then again I was never really listening for that. That actually really sucks, thanks for sharing this info.
They deleted dolby atmos options in the latest upgrade. And dolby access charge if you want it to use it on your headphones
Very helpful, thank you
You're welcome, thank you so much for watching!
Thanks for this guide! I also purchased the GB3 Pro 360 in June. For University, I use OneNote, but it's absolutely horrible, I did anything mentioned on the internet, but none helped so far. Looking up notes is fine but taking them on PDF I imported is laging, stuttering or completely shutting down, and it's freezing so hard. Any recommendations?
Thanks for stopping by, and my apologies for the slow reply. I've been away for a couple eye surgeries. I honestly don't use OneNote anymore. I used to use it all the time for work, but I got away from it when I switched companies. I test it from time to time for the channel, but I'm not a fan of it on the galaxy books nor the tablets. I typically use Samsung Notes, and will occasionally import stuff from OneNote, though it's a bit janky. I'm sorry I can't be of much help, I get frustrated with it too!
Having a lot of issues with wifi constantly disconnecting... Any fix to this ???
Thanks for stopping by! NO, I'm sorry, but mine's been rock solid. I haven't faced any wifi issues at all.
My S Pen has completely disappeared! I’ve tried checking updates, drivers and even resetting the laptop as a new device. Feel like I’ve completely lost the laptop. Any help???
Hi, thanks for watching. Well, thankfully there's no actual "real" connection to the laptop. It doesn't use bluetooth, nor hold a constant connection to the laptop. It's mostly likely a device driver issue, or you have an update pending in the Samsung Update app. Start by checking Device Manager for any device conflicts, then check Samsung Updates. It should just work though, especially with apps like Samsung Notes.
My question has to do with my desktop. I somehow unpinned the desktop folder in my file explorer. I don't know if you understand what I'm saying but when you go into file explorer all the way on the left hand side you have devices and folders that you can click on. In the middle section all the way to the left there are several things that are pinned such as the desktop, documents, videos, pictures Etcetera. My question is how do I repin the desktop folder to that middle section. What I did but I deleted something and now I can't get the folder pinned again.
Thanks for another visit my friend, and my apologies for the slow reply. I took a little break from youtube for back to back eye surgeries. I know what you mean, but I've never experienced it myself. I did find these instructions online though that may be helpful:
Here's how to show the desktop in File Explorer:
Open File Explorer
Click Desktop in the left-hand sidebar
If the sidebar isn't visible, use View > Show > Navigation Pane
You can also add the desktop to the quick access menu in File Explorer:
Click Quick Access from the left side of File Explorer
Select the item to add
Right click on the item
Choose Pin to Quick access
To make File Explorer open to This PC instead of Quick Access, you can:
Go to the View tab
Select Options
In the Open File Explorer to list, select This PC
Select Apply
You can also open the Desktop folder by typing shell:Desktop into the address bar of File Explorer.
@RADERTECH Thank you, thank you, thank you!
This fixed the problem perfectly . Sorry to hear about the surgeries. I hope things work out for you. I watch your channel all the time. Thanks for being so informative. You make things very easy to understand. Oh...and keep em coming!
great video, helped a lot to get used to my new book 3 pro.
Also i agree that chrome and McAfee being total resource hogs. What programs would you suggest as better replacements for those two?
I personally just use Windows Defender and the built in Security tools (malware removal tool, firewall, etc..). Pretty much anything else besides McAfee is pretty good, I can't stand McAfee. I used to like it about 10 years ago, but now it feels like the marketing team is handling the app more than the dev team, lol. Thanks for stopping by!
@@RADERTECH yeah it almost seems like their budget is only used for marketing lol what about chrome? do you know any better browser that is more efficient? or did they fix their problems?
Great video, just couldn't get that demo video to play when I hit the play button on the System > Display > HDR screen at the top. Any Idea?
I noticed that too a long time ago, I figured they would have fixed that by now. It does support HDR for sure though, so no worries really. Thanks for stopping by!
Great video for future use with my new Book 3 although, I have a question pertaining to Samsung Secure Folder. I was hoping there is a way with a hack or not to get this on my Book 3. I know it's windows and not android based but after activating Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA) with Google Play I am not seeing it available yet. Maybe there is a similar feature but was wanting for backup purposes from my galaxy phone. Thanks in advance for any helps, tips or tricks with this if any.
Hi, thanks for stopping by and watching.
That's a good point, and one I've never looked into. If I had to put a guess as to why it's not possible (or at least easily), is because Secure Folder would have to load up another instance of the emulated android system, the one creatable via the Subsystem components you mentioned. It's likely a limitation of securely running the second instance inside of itself, if that makes sense? I could be talking out my rear though, just guessing based on my experience with WSA.
The best review and Tipp ever thanks
Thank you so much! I'm truly sorry for the slow reply, I've been away for 2 cataract eye surgeries. Thanks again for the super nice comment, I appreciate you!
How to know UA-cam is watching me: I just ordered one 20 minutes ago and this just showed up in my recommendations. Well, sod it, might as well watch, maybe it'll be useful.
Nice! Congrats on getting it! Sorry for the slow reply, I've been away for back to back eye surgeries. Feel free to shoot me any questions you have about it, I've been using these galaxy books for a few years now, so happy to help.
@@RADERTECH Thanks man and no worries, hope your eye surgeries went well. And the laptop only arrived today (had to wait for stock) but useful tour of the laptop here, followed some of them when setting up. And I was surprised Atmos was not on by default either, makes me wonder how many people miss it.
You're awesome
My favorite comment all week, thank you! :)
Hi radar, just a quick question, was looking at buying this laptop and was just wondering what average battery life was like, will mostly use it for student work and what not with light gaming and movie watching.
Hi Barney, thanks for watching! It's too early for me to comment yet on it, I should have some better inputs when I spend a lot of time with this weekend. So far, it seems like it's a little better than last year's model, but I'm not sure by how much yet.
I got the Book3 on February 17... i had the Book 2 prior for a few months and gave it to my mom because she needed a laptop.
Anyway, something different happened with the Book3... it is zoomed in somehow and I can't figure out how to make it normal. I went to the zoom settings and went down 1 notch from the "recommended" zoom but thats not right either.
Do you know whats up?
Hi Jennifer, thanks for watching and congrats on getting the Book3! It sounds like your Windows Scaling in set to high. Right-click on an empty spot of your desktop and select Display Properties. On that main page, there should be a setting for Windows Scaling. On the newer Book3 model, I'm pretty sure the default is 200%, since it's a 3K display. Also make sure the screen resolution is set to 2880x1800 on that same screen. Happy to help further if this doesn't help.
Hello, anyone have touchpad lag with small moves of your finger? precise move of the mouse with the touchpad is almost imposible... Galaxy Book 3 Ultra here.
Thanks for stopping by. I do, on my book pro 360, which has the same trackpad as your Ultra. It gets super frustrating, and I always just end up using my logitech mx master mouse instead. I'm not a fan of the trackpad on these latest galaxy books.
Great video!!! Can you guide how to increase the SSD capacity? I need to increase the capacity, was wondering if there is extra slot or not and if it is there what form factor ssd would go into that.
Thank you so much! I can walk you through it right here. There's an extra 2280 slot towards the upper right corner, assuming you have the machine flipped over the back taken off. So you can use a 2230 or 2280, last year we just had 2230, and 2280 on the original book pro 360.
You can upgrade the included one if you want as well. I'd personally just throw a secondary one in and be done with it. Doing a clean windows install on these galaxy books is a bit of a pain, especially if you want to get every re-installed, including the baked in Dolby Atmos license. It can get a bit tricky and time consumining.
The latest SSD install on the book3 pro 360 I see on reddit is for a "SN770 M.2 2280 2 TB" in the secondary slot. As with most things reddit, take with a grain of salt.
@@RADERTECH Thanks for such a elaborate crystal clear answer. Yes, I am also planning to go with 2TB 2280 ssd as secondary storage. I was thinking to do a clean install of windows 11, but as you catuioned, I shall wait for sometime to get a better insinght!
هل يوجد في لابتب ميزة المجلد الأمن؟ نفس موجوده على الهاتف و تابلت؟
I heard there's no extra ssd slot in the book3 pro 360 to upgrade the storage.
Don't worry, that's not true. There are 2 slots, 100% confirmed. Here's a reddit post with the back taken off so you can take a look. Thanks for stopping by.
No man, that's not possible. Even on the official website it mentions one ssd slot. Can you provide me a link?
Hi, great video.
What is the best app to draw or create notes with the pen?
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for stopping by! Samsung Notes is my personal favorite. many folks also like OneNote a lot too, though I don't like the palm regection as much. NoteShelf is another option for journeling type stuff, and the buit in Pen-Up app is fun for sketches and coloring. Clip Studio Paint is a higher end subscription based drawing app that a lot of people seem to like as well.
Does it contain samsung dex ??? built in?
without connect phone sam
Hi, thanks for watching! No, DeX doesn't come installed on this machine. That's android based only, and doesn't run on Windows PC's. There may be a hack to do so, but none that I know of. But with Windows already being a multi-tasking OS, the need for DeX isn't really there. You can connect to it and use DeX that way, and the DeX PC companion app of course work on it.
Hey RaderTech I have Book 3 pro 360, which Peformance Mode is best for less heating? My major use is Google Chrome.
Thanks for stopping by, and my apologies for the slow response. I've been away for back to back eye surgeries. I always leave mine in Optimized mode, like nearly 100% of the time. It offers the best balance of heat, power and battery IMHO.
@@RADERTECH Thanks and WIsh you good health
the function f12 lock on reboot is still not fixed. I just got the galaxy book pro 3 360 and the f12 lock turns off every time i restart or turn on the computer.
Hi, thanks for watching! It's so weird, a few others are saying the same thing. I tried it again on mine just yesterday, and it's still working as expected. It stays locked if I had it locked, and not if I don't. I'm going to demo this in next week's Q&A video that will be out on Wednesday, just so we're all on the same page.
@@RADERTECH Thanks for a good video! Yes, really strange. I have the same issue: it is reset to the default upon restart/shutdown. I have the non-360 Book3 pro version. Maybe it's a firmware update that everyone didn't receive yet.
@@Wintran It could be, but not likely though. I say that becuase it's behave the same on mine since day 1. That's really strange.
@@RADERTECH Since the latest update, mine seems to remember function lock state now!!
can you tell me how to safely remove a stuck sim card in this modle
I would strongly suggest taking it to a phone repair shop for a quick look. I wouldn't chance it if it's stuck. Thanks for stopping by.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR REPLYING BACK CAUSE NO ONE ELSE DID,u were the 15th site I asked the same question to. But my husband came home and asked why I looked like the world was bout to end an I was the person to spread the word,lmfao. True story this man took my laptop and man handled it,with care of course,didn't I tell not to do this crap in the first place. UMM yup! But Bae I'm lost without you ;) 3 seconds later safely out,well darn. I SAW U KEPT ASKING DIFF CHANELS SO INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR U TO ASK ME I CAME TO DO IT FOR U♡♡♡♡♡♡
Is this laptop good for video editing??
Hi John, thanks for watching. As long as the edits aren't overly complex and you're not using blender or other animations often, it should work well. I haven't tested editing yet on this year's machine, but I used Davinci Resolve 18 for a month straight on last year's model on edits for this channel and it worked great.
@@RADERTECH thanks for replying 💜
I just bought a Samsung Book 3 Pro. The function row lock still does not work!
Sorry for the slow reply, been away for a couple of eye surgeries. That doesn't sound right, not at all. It should just be a matter of pressing Fn+F12 to toggle it on and off. If that doesn't work, I'd check for both Windows Updates and Samsung Updates via the Samsung Updates app, and then do a full restart. If all that doesn't work, I'd contact the seller for a return or refund. Thanks for stopping by.
I just ordered the galaxy book3 pro 14". Might be a stupid question but can I bump the resolution down to something like 1920x1200 w/60hz refresh to save battery life if I wanted to? Also, do you know if these devices are linux compatible? I'm thinking about installing a 2nd SSD in the 2nd slot it has and having windows/linux on separate drives.
Hi, thanks for the great questions, and I'm sorry for the slow response.
Yes to all of your questions :) You can scale down in resolution, including 1080p, and also force it to 60hz, 120hz, or have it switch on its own - it's pretty sweet.
Linux is no issue at all, there's plenty of reddit posts and forums where folks dive deep into running Linux on the Galaxy Books. You should have minimal to no issues running it from what I'm seeing.
If that is the cause of cracked screens, then Samsung needs to redesign the hinge area to stiffen the area. No point in having such a thin & light laptop, if you have to completely baby it. Makes more sense to go with a more physically robust machine. I need a laptop that can live up-to being carried around in my 40L backpack’s laptop compartment. Which like most travel bags these days, is right up against your back.
Hi, thanks for watching. You don't have to complete baby it, but you do want to make sure you're not putting much weight directly up against it, say from a lot of books pressing up against it while it's on your back. This isn't the machine for that, you'd want something like a ThinkPad, it's designed to take more abuse.
I personally beat the crap out of mine, the new model is made out of Aluminium, so it's not flexing or breaking easy. But if you're throwing it in a full backpack ofthen, I"d probably go with another model personally.
@@RADERTECH Thanks for the reply and I will keep that in mind when I'm ready to pull the trigger on a new machine.... I'm attracted to the 2-1's because I do enjoy drawing when I get the itch. My trading platform is also designed with touch capabilities in mind. Don't hardly game. What do you think of the latest HP Spectr 360 with the ARC gpu? I also want high res. I like my charts to look crisp.
Unfortunately, the function lock still needs to be turned on after a restart. This is with a galaxy book3 pro
Yeah, they removed it shortly after release, it stopped working after the third or fourth update. I thought it was here to stay, no dice. Thanks for stopping by.
thank you
You're welcome, thank you so much for watching, and my apologies for the slow reply. I hope you have a great weekend!
Hey, what's your take on S8 ultra vs Book3pro360.. I consume media a lot and work on Excel and Internet browser
This comparison sounds like a great video idea, thank you!
Oh wow, this is a tough one. If you value s pen input, the tab s8 ultra destroys the book3 pro 360, hands down. But for media consumption and web browsing, oh my, that's a close call. I'd have to give the slight nod to the book3 pro 360. For Excel, it really depends on if you can get by with the android version, or if you need the full fledged MS Office 365 version that you can install locally - for VBA support, macros, advanced formulas, all that jazz. In that case, i'ld lean more on the book3 360.
If I didn't have a laptop and a tablet already and could only get one - Book3 Pro 360, you'll be able to get more done with it.
@@RADERTECH Thank you for the response. True, it can be a great video since both products offer a lot of similar things. Price difference is not much. In France, top variant of S8 ultra with keyboard cost around 2100€, and same is the price of Book 360. Both have great displays. Book 360, being really slim and foldable provides similar experience like a tab, although a bit bulkier than tab but offers Windows 11 which balances the trade off. So these 2 products are really similar. Very to difficult to choose one, this will be great video. Waiting for it.
regarding the things you mentioned, the only thing that Tab S8 is NOT going to win is Excel. Because the Android version MS 365 is a simplified version, you get much fewer options/functions, or maybe it's there, but you need to dig into and find it. But for media consumption or web browsing, the android versions are much smoother (just simply like the UA-cam app on Android vs the Windows store App version vs the youtube on web browser)Android is definitely the smoothest, and you can watch the video but still read the comment at the same time, but web version? once you scroll down for comments, you can't see the video.
On hardware side, on TAB S8 U, you won't feel ANY heat even after 2hrs of video, but the laptop will still have a bit of heat, or you have to turn off the silent mode to let the fan run, but it's gonna make some noise, that's another problem.
Don't get me wrong, the Book 3 pro 360 is a fantastic piece of art, if you need more connectivity, a better keyboard, running Wndows software (you can emulate Android apps on Wndows but not another way around.
put it simple. If you mainly just read Excel files and do a little edit, Tab S8 U. If you need to build an Excel file from scrap and want to do a proper one, then Book 3 pro 360
Do you feel safe turning the screen to 360 mode? Or do you feel it can lead to screen cracks if done to often?
I feel totally safe doing it, I've never had an issue with any of the galaxy book screens, I've owned the last 3 "pro 360 models". I'm careful though. Thanks for stopping by.
Can you do a video about tips and tricks für the Galaxy S23 Ultra???
Yes, yes, and more yes! That's a great idea, I'll definitely put this video together! Thank you!
@@RADERTECH Thanks, I have no idea what's new because I switched the S10 + to the S23 ultra and that's a lot, especially with the new ui and Android version It's very unusual for me, but after a few days I found my way around
Are there any good options for easy music controls? I'm coming off a laptop where the F keys had play/pause skip and back as defaults, now I'm kind of annoyed how manually I have to change songs
Check out AutoHotKey. It lets you setup a quick script to map a few of your function keys to play/pause, and skip track and prev track. Thanks for stopping by.
Sounds great thank you!
What is the best case for this laptop?
Anything that holds the laptop only, as you run the risk of damaging it if keeping it with books and whatnot since it's so thin.
This was the first clip that came up when searching for Remove bloatware Samsung Galaxy Book 3. But the video is about the pro, tips aren't relevant and no bloatwarehelp, ugh!
Hi, thanks for watching! Oh wow, that's crazy that this video showed up first when searching for "remove bloatware".
I'm sorry this video wasn't helpful for your particular machine, this one is scpecifically for the book3 pro 360 model. Besides McAfee, most folks would want to keep most of the Samsung apps, like S Notes, Quickshare/linkshare, Screen Recorder, stuff like that. While other apps, like the Samsung Gallery app, are quite questionable, since it's already a built-in feature of Windows. I'll feature this in an upcoiming Q&A video, you bring up a good point.
Do you use Samsung Pass on the Book? Is it available on the Book2 Pro?
No, I don't think that's an option on the galaxy laptops, but then again I've never tried. I'd be very surprised if it was an option on it. But it doesn't hurt to check the Microsoft Store for "Samsung Pass" and see if it's there for download. I would for you right now, but I'm on my work laptop and they all that stuff blocked. Thanks for watching!
What happens if you do a clean install of Windows? I usually do that to get rid of bloat (like I saw TikTok is pre-installed on there) but I actually do want to keep a lot of Samsung's stuff. Can you reinstall those programs?
Hi, thanks for stopping by. Yes, you do a fresh install, I've seen plenty of folks talking about it on reddit. Once you have the installation wrapped up, you should be able to install the Samsung Update app from MS store (I'd check prior to make sure), then from there you can start hand picking which Samsung apps and services you want to install. I'm sure you'll into a couple of snags along the way, but I can't imagine it being too bad.
@@RADERTECH Sweet :) thanks. So it sounds like the Samsung Update app is basically like the Galaxy Store but for Windows.
By the way sorry I forgot to add I am using a Galaxy book 3 pro 360
My function lock turns off after restarts on my Book3 :(
Hi Ben, thanks for watching. I've been hearing of this happening for a few folks now, hopefully this doesn't become the new normal. I just did a couple test on mine to see if the behavior on mine has changed. I did a regular Restart, and I also did a complete Shut-down and started it back up fresh. Both times, the Fn key remained locked, it didn't change. I promise I'm doing anything else special, just one press of Fn+F12, and I haven't pressed it again since. Well, one time I recall having to after a firmware update, but that's the only time I can remember. Please check the Samsung Update app on the laptop to make sure you have all the latest updates. But for me personally, it's just always worked regardlesss if I'm on the latest updates or not. Are you in the United States? I'm trying to get a feel for this issue, as it seems odd to only be impacting some users. Also, do you have the Book3 Pro 360, or regular Book3 laptop? I'm wondering if it may be model specific.
to turn on dolby in my computer i have to pay
Have you had any network problems on this laptop? Mine seems to disconnect or slow down a lot randomly
No, not really that I can think of, I'm sorry that's happening on yours. Perhaps check windows updates and samsung updates for an update to the driver. If that doesn't help, I'd consider contacting Samsung, especailly if you're in good wifi range and are still experiencing this. The connection should be rock solid. Thanks for stopping by, and my apologies for the slow reply.
@@RADERTECH thanks, it's no problem. Mostly happens when watching live streams, a lot of stutters. The wifi is 5G so shouldn't be a problem I think :(
Why doesn't my book 3 pro 360 have the 120 hz option 😐 I'm bouta take it back smh
You should definetely have the option, it's default with the laptop. I don't think you can not have it, it's just there. It should be right where I mentioned it in this video. Please make sure you have all of the latest updates, both windows updates and samsung updates.
@@RADERTECH I checked as I was watching it also did some more research, some said it’s only on the 15.6” and I have the 13.3”. Wish i knew that before hand
