Externally, the Samsung Book 3 Ultra looks like a MacBook. But how does this laptop in maximum configuration perform in practice?
The laptop comes with a 100W charger. The Samsung Book 3 Ultra feels very light: it weighs just 1.8kg and is 17mm thick. The body of the laptop is made of metal.
Also, when buying this model, you get a large screen, a huge touchpad, a keyboard with a number pad. This display is ideal for gaming, watching movies and just being creative. But it’s also bright and wobbly when working with a laptop. And the touchpad has terrible sensitivity. After you set the increased sensitivity, you may accidentally delete part of the text when you tap the touchpad.
Among the significant disadvantages of the Samsung Book 3 Ultra are bad speakers. And this despite the fact that the laptop costs about 300 thousand rubles.
The webcam on this laptop is pretty good. It is quite suitable for any video conference.
The processor in the Samsung Book 3 Ultra is top notch. This is an Intel Core i9-13900H. Video card – RTX 4070, RAM – 32 GB. The speed of the 1TB SSD is excellent. In synthetic tests, the laptop performs well. You can see the results above.
With 2880×1800 resolution and DLSS Quality, you can get stable 60-70 fps in Hogwarts Legacy. Although there are stutters during the game, the average is 50 fps in general.
Cyberpunk 2077 ran at the same resolution as Ultra ray tracing and DLSS Auto. In this case you can get 30-40 fps, and when the resolution is reduced to 1080p – up to 80 fps.
Tomb Raider was running with a high preset and maximum resolution. The average frame rate in this game was 100fps.

The main advantages of the Samsung Book 3 Ultra include an excellent display, good performance, light weight, no noise when performing office tasks, the ability to play the best games at a good frame rate, and a small charge of 100 W. Of the minuses of this model – flickering screen, poor sound quality, low response speed of the touchpad.
