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’s 8-core Intel Arc iGPU in sustained graphics workloads, while remaining completely fanless due to 10.5W PL1 thermal design versus the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H’s 28W PL1. Choose the MacBook Air if you need 24GB RAM and 1TB storage for 4K video editing or long battery life—Apple claims 18 hours of video playback, and real-world use averages 15–17 hours. Opt for the Galaxy Book4 Pro 16 if you need HDMI output, a microSD card reader, or a larger 16-inch screen for multitasking with 16 cores and 22 threads, especially for Windows-only software like AutoCAD or enterprise tools. In UAE at AED 5899 vs AED 5299, the Galaxy Book4 Pro wins because it offers more ports and a bigger screen for just AED 600 less; in India at ₹144900 vs ₹131990, the Galaxy Book4 Pro wins on value because it delivers 16 cores, 76Wh battery, and 16-inch display for ₹12910 less.
