Our Verdict
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 15 (2023)
Samsung Galaxy Book4 (2024)
The Samsung Galaxy Book4 (2024) is better than the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 15 (2023) mainly because it has better CPU performance and a longer battery life. In terms of the user experience, they trade blows, so choosing the right laptop will depend on what you care about most. The Samsung has brighter display, so it's a better choice if you regularly work in brightly lit environments. Also, its touchpad is larger and more responsive, making it easier to use. On the other hand, the Lenovo has a more tactile keyboard—the Samsung's keyboard feels mushy, so it's hard to know when you've actuated a key.
