Samsung Galaxy Book 3 Ultra review: creative power behind stunning screen

Windows 11 workstation has top creative and gaming performance housed in sleek 16in laptop design

The top of Samsung's new 2023 laptop line is the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra: a powerhouse 16in machine aiming squarely at Apple's 16in MacBook Pro for creatives and gamers.

A laptop called Ultra obviously doesn't come cheap, costing from 2,449 ($2,200), which is about the same price as Windows 11 rivals from Dell and Razer but slightly cheaper than Apple's top machines.
