Buying guide

Static — written by Claude

Buy the Microsoft Surface Pro 12 if you need a versatile 2-in-1 tablet-laptop hybrid, prefer a compact 12-inch form factor for portability, or are already invested in the Microsoft Surface ecosystem. Buy the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge if you want a traditional 15.6-inch laptop with a larger display, double the storage (1TB), and want to save £380 without sacrificing Copilot+ AI features or Snapdragon performance.

Our verdict

Static — written by Claude

The Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge wins on value — it costs £380 less and ships with 1TB of storage versus the Surface Pro's 512GB, making it the smarter buy for most users. The Surface Pro 12 justifies its premium only if you specifically need a detachable 2-in-1 form factor with tablet functionality.
