Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge 14
Snapdragon X Elite
A 14 inch 3K 120Hz AMOLED Copilot+ PC at 1.16 kg with the X Elite, very good for Windows-on-Arm media work, but Linux on it is a hobby project right now with no upstream Wi-Fi, no audio, no working touchscreen and no Canonical test coverage.

Common questions
- Does the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge 14 (Snapdragon X Elite) work with Linux?
- Not cleanly: there are significant gaps, so we don't recommend it for Linux as-is. Unlike the ThinkPad T14s Gen 6, the XPS 13 9345 and the Yoga Slim 7x, the Galaxy Book4 Edge is not on Canonical's tested list for the Ubuntu 25.04 arm64 image.
- What does the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge 14 (Snapdragon X Elite) cost?
- RRP is about 1349 USD (1499 EUR in the EU); street price is often lower.
- Is the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge 14 (Snapdragon X Elite) good for office and web work?
- For office and web work we score it 6/10 on value and 8/10 on performance.
- How heavy is the Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge 14 (Snapdragon X Elite)?
- 1.16 kg (2.56 lb). That's light enough for daily commuting.
- What's the battery life like?
- A 55.9 Wh pack, around 14 hours real-world mixed use. We score battery 8/10.
- Can I upgrade the RAM or storage?
- RAM is soldered, so the 16 GB it ships with is the RAM it dies with. Storage starts at 512 GB on this configuration.
