Our Verdict

ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 vs Galaxy Book4 Pro 360 16"

The Samsung Galaxy Book4 Pro 16 wins on raw performance with its Core Ultra 7 155H (16c/22t, 64W PL2) and Arc 8-Core iGPU, outpacing the ThinkPad’s Core Ultra 5 225U (12c/14t, 45W PL2) and 4-Core iGPU, though the ThinkPad is fanless while the Samsung runs warmer under load. Choose the ThinkPad X1 Carbon if you need a 1.165kg ultraportable with 12.31” screen and 10+ hours of battery for business travel, coding, or all-day typing with Windows 11 Pro. Pick the Galaxy Book4 Pro 16 if you need 64GB RAM, 2TB storage, and a 13.99” display for multitasking with large datasets, 4K video editing, or running VMs alongside heavy apps. In UAE at AED 8499 vs AED 7899, the Samsung wins because it offers double the storage and 48% more RAM for AED 600 less; in India at ₹214990 vs ₹194990, the Samsung wins on value because 64GB RAM and 2TB SSD justify the ₹20000 price gap.
