Our Verdict

MacBook 12 (2019) vs Galaxy Book Pro 360 15.6"

The Samsung Galaxy Book6 Pro wins on raw performance with its Intel Core Ultra 7 356H (16 cores, 16 threads, 4.7 GHz max) versus the MacBook Pro’s older i5-8257U (4 cores, 8 threads, 3.9 GHz max), and its Intel Xe3 iGPU outperforms Iris Plus 645 in graphics tasks. The MacBook Pro 13 2019 suits light video editors needing macOS compatibility with Final Cut Pro and 8GB RAM for basic 1080p timelines, but its 58.2Wh battery lasts just 6–7 hours under load. The Galaxy Book6 Pro excels for coders and multitaskers needing 32GB LPDDR5x-8533 RAM and Wi-Fi 7 for fast cloud syncs, with 78Wh battery delivering 9–10 hours of office work. In UAE at AED 2499 vs AED 3299, the Galaxy Book6 Pro is better because it offers 4x more RAM and modern connectivity for AED 800 less. In India at ₹62900 vs ₹72900, the Galaxy Book6 Pro wins on value because 32GB RAM and Wi-Fi 7 cost ₹10,000 less.
