Our Verdict

XPS 16 (9640) vs Galaxy Book3 Ultra 16"

Dell XPS 16 9640 dominates with Intel Core Ultra 7 155H (16c/22t) and RTX 4070 (8GB GDDR6) versus Samsung’s aging i7-1065G7 (4c/8t) and MX250 (2GB GDDR5), delivering 3x the GPU power and 4x the CPU cores. Buy the Dell if you edit 4K video with 32GB LPDDR5x RAM and 1TB SSD, code with 22 threads, or game at 1440p with Advanced Optimus and 99.5Wh battery lasting ~7 hours. Choose the Samsung if you need lightweight portability at 1.57kg for daily tasks like web browsing and Office apps, with Wi-Fi 6 and 69.7Wh battery offering ~6 hours on low brightness. In UAE at AED 8499 vs AED 7499, the Dell is better because the RTX 4070 enables 4K video rendering the MX250 cannot handle; in India at ₹259990 vs ₹189900, the Samsung wins on value because the price gap is 37% while performance difference exceeds 200% for non-creative tasks.
