What makes them different from each other?

The display is the key differentiating factor between these two laptops. As its name suggests, Samsung’s Galaxy Book Pro 360 is a touchscreen tablet that can be folded up as a tablet or propped up as a stand for presentation and sketching. A Samsung S Pen is included on the 360 too, which is more than twice as thick as the one on the older Galaxy Book Flex. For those who aren’t interested in the touch and flexibility of the 360, the standard Galaxy Book Pro offers a traditional non-touch screen. It has been only three months when, in mid-January, Samsung has released its flagship phones,  including Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21 Plus, Galaxy S21 Ultra. Samsung has also decided to hold yet another Galaxy Unpacked event, which will be streamed live on Samsung’s official YouTube channel. The company has announced the date of 17th March for its next event of the year.
