Our Verdict

MacBook Air 13 (M3) vs Galaxy Book4 Pro 360 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 tasks, while its fanless design ensures silent operation under load, unlike the 28W PL1 Intel Ultra 7 155H that throttles under prolonged stress. Choose the MacBook Air if you’re a video editor needing 24GB RAM and 1TB SSD for 4K timelines with 18-hour battery life and macOS optimization for Final Cut Pro. Pick the Galaxy Book4 Pro 16 if you need 64GB RAM and 2TB SSD for heavy multitasking, large datasets, or Windows-only professional apps like AutoCAD, plus HDMI and microSD ports for external workflows. In UAE at AED 5899 vs AED 7899, the MacBook Air is better because it delivers superior GPU performance and 50% longer battery life at half the price premium. In India at ₹144900 vs ₹194990, the MacBook Air wins on value because it offers 8GB more RAM, same storage, and 30% better battery life for ₹50,090 less.
