The Samsung Galaxy Book 3 is the kind of laptop you might guess Samsung would not make. It's fairly affordable productivity laptop, the kind a family might buy for odd jobs. And it's only a whisker away, in terms of price, from being in a shout as one of the best laptops under £500.
The best bit is that it looks almost as smart as the PCs Samsung sells at several times the price. Conversely, however, bad bits include a fairly colour-sapped screen, build quality that doesn't match Samsung's best for rigidity, and a slightly squeaky-feeling plastic touchpad.
