Our Verdict

Galaxy Book Pro 360 15.6" vs Galaxy Book2 360 15.6"

Intel Core Ultra 7 356H (16c/16t) crushes the Core i7-8850H (6c/12t) in multi-core performance and supports Wi-Fi 7 and Thunderbolt 4, while the MacBook’s Radeon Pro 560X is outdated for modern gaming or GPU workloads. The Galaxy Book6 Pro’s 64GB RAM and 2TB SSD make it ideal for video editors running 8K timelines or coders using Docker, VMs, and IDEs simultaneously, with 12+ hours of real-world battery life. The MacBook Pro 15 2018 only suits legacy macOS users needing Final Cut Pro 10.4.8 or Xcode 10, but its 16GB DDR4 and soldered RAM cannot be upgraded beyond 32GB, and its thermal throttling under load limits sustained performance. In UAE at AED 2999 vs AED 2899, the Galaxy Book6 Pro is better because it offers double the RAM and triple the storage for just AED 100 more. In India at ₹75900 vs ₹76900, the Galaxy Book6 Pro wins on value because it delivers 4x the storage and 4x the RAM for ₹1000 less.
