MacBook Pro 13 (M1) vs Galaxy Book2 Pro 360 15.6"

Apple MacBook Pro 13 2022 M2 outperforms the 2018 15-inch due to its M2 8-core CPU and 10-core GPU, delivering 40% higher single-core and 2x multi-core throughput than the i7-8850H, while being fanless and running cooler under load. Choose the M2 model if you edit 4K video with Final Cut Pro — its 24GB RAM and unified memory handle 10-layer timelines smoothly, and its 14-hour battery life lasts through full workdays. The 2018 15-inch suits developers running Docker containers or VMs needing 32GB DDR4 RAM and four Thunderbolt 3 ports for dual 4K external displays, despite its 6-hour battery and 1.83kg weight. In UAE at AED 4099 vs AED 3499, the M2 is better because it runs silently and lasts 8 hours longer on battery; in India at ₹104900 vs ₹88900, the 2018 model wins on value because 32GB RAM justifies the ₹16000 gap for heavy multitasking.
