Our Verdict

MacBook Air 13 (M3) vs Galaxy Book4 Pro 16"

Apple MacBook Air 13 M3 with its 10-core GPU outperforms the Galaxy Book4 Pro 16’s 8-core Intel Arc iGPU in sustained graphics workloads, and its fanless design ensures silent operation under load, unlike the 28W PL1 Intel Ultra 7 155H that requires active cooling. Choose the MacBook Air if you’re a video editor needing 24GB RAM for 4K timeline scrubbing and 10+ hours of real-world battery life on light tasks, or a coder benefiting from macOS optimization and 1TB SSD speed. Pick the Galaxy Book4 Pro 16 if you need 32GB RAM for heavy multitasking in Windows, HDMI output for external monitors, or microSD card expansion for photographers. In UAE at AED 5899 vs AED 6199, the MacBook Air is better because it delivers longer battery life and silent performance. In India at ₹144900 vs ₹154990, the MacBook Air wins on value because it offers superior efficiency and thermal silence for ₹10,090 less.
