To me it isn't a true replacement unless it's available for every region... and Samsung Laptops isn't... Same as Pixels.

QuoteGalaxy Book4 Pro: Samsung presents new Apple MacBook Pro 14 alternative with Intel Core Ultra 5 and Core Ultra 7 processors

How is this an alternative to a MacBook Pro 14? Yes, it's a 14" laptop and it looks sort of like a MacBook Pro, but given that MacBook Pros use Apple's proprietary Mx ARM processors, and they have a closed proprietary OS that ONLY runs on their hardware - thus making it impossible to run any software that runs in MacBooks on any other system... it is in no way an alternative to a MacBook Pro!

It is a WINDOWS laptop that just happens to be similar to a MacBook Pro 14". It's also similar to a bunch of Windows 14" laptops.

Why even mention MacBook Pros at all? It has nothing to do with the article.

Why is Samsung making these things heavier? The only point in choosing a Samsung GalaxyBook was because of the light weight usually around 1KG or 2.4 - 2.6LB.. it seems the lightest of the new GalaxyBook 4 serious 16" is actually 1.56KG or 3.6LG.. that's much heavier than before.. may as well buy any brand or a Macbook Pro at that price point.
