Apple MacBook Pro 13 M2 outperforms the Galaxy Book5 Pro in CPU efficiency and GPU throughput with its 8-core M2 (3.5 GHz peak) and 10-core GPU vs. Intel Core Ultra 5 226V’s 8-core Lunar Lake and Arc 130V (1850 MHz), delivering superior sustained performance without a fan. Choose the MacBook if you edit 4K video with Final Cut Pro—16GB RAM and 512GB SSD handle multi-track timelines smoothly, and its 17-hour battery lasts longer than the Book5 Pro’s 12 hours.
