Depends on what people need. The Book 4 Pro has better multi-core CPU performance if you need it. Everything else favors the Pro Book 5 Pro. Quicker single core CPU, faster RAM, better iGPU in real world tests, better Wi-Fi, and better battery life.

Great comparisons EXCEPT that the Samsung Book4 Pro 360 DOES have a USB Type A port. Makes this and Book 5 very similar.

You're right, there is a separate USB-A port. Thank you for your comment.
