ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 vs Galaxy Book4 Ultra 16"

The Samsung Galaxy Book4 Pro 16 wins on CPU performance with its Core Ultra 7 155H (16c/22t) versus the ThinkPad’s Ultra 5 225U (12c/14t), and its Arc 8-Core iGPU outperforms the Intel 4-Core iGPU in graphics tasks. The ThinkPad X1 Carbon is ideal for professionals needing 1.165 kg portability, 57 Wh battery life (up to 14 hours), and 2TB storage for large datasets, with Windows 11 Pro for enterprise security. The Galaxy Book4 Pro 16 suits creatives needing dual-channel RAM, 76 Wh battery (up to 18 hours), and microSD card reader for photo/video workflows, despite its 1.539 kg weight. In UAE at AED 9499 vs AED 10299, the Samsung wins because it offers more cores, larger battery, and card reader for AED 800 less; in India at ₹239990 vs ₹259990, the Samsung wins on value because it delivers higher CPU tier and 19% larger battery for ₹20000 less.
