Performance scores
Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Pro (16") (2023) — the big Pro with the 87-point CPU
The Galaxy Book 4 Pro (16") at $954 is the 16-inch 2024-generation Pro: a Core Ultra 7 155H with 32 GB of RAM and integrated graphics. The flagged strengths are CPU performance at 87.02 (+45.5% above the class median) and reliability at 71; the flagged weakness is the graphics reading itself.
Where it holds up
The 87.02 CPU reading matches the 14-inch sibling and the Prestige 16 AI Evo — the shared top of this batch's $954 Samsung shelf — and office productivity posts 88.99 (top) with value at 55.95 (mid). Reliability holds the top quartile, and the 16-inch canvas is the differentiator the way battery was for the 3 Pro generation.
Where it falls short
The graphics score reads 0 — no matched scoring entry for the integrated GPU — so gaming 19, modeling 27 and engineering CAD 33 are coverage-limited bands rather than literal zeros, to be verified hands-on. Portability drops to 49.9 (mid) and performance reads 46.59 (mid): the same trade as every big-body Pro without a discrete card.
Price and depreciation
No depreciation anchor is recorded (base $0); no curve or projection applies. The 2023 cohort rate is 10.62% per year for this class.
Alternatives to consider
The Galaxy Book 4 Pro (14") at the same $954 carries the identical sheet at portability 76.4; the Galaxy Book 3 Pro (16") at the same price is the 1340P predecessor with the 76 Wh battery; the Prestige 16 AI Evo B1M at $954 pairs the same CPU with the 99.9 Wh cell.
Bottom line
Fairly priced for the class. The big-canvas compute Pro: the shelf's top CPU reading and a top office band on the 16-inch panel — the graphics asterisk understood at checkout. Photo design at 35 (mid) matches the 14-inch sibling's reading.
