Reviewers from gizmodo have found the following***:
The Galaxy Book Flex has a great, but simple design, a brilliant screen, and a handful of useful extras. Its Core i7 CPU, 8GB of RAM (or 12GB on the 15-inch model), and 512GB compares favorable against a similarly specced XPS 13. But you don't have the ability to upgrade to a 4K display, a larger SSD, or more RAM, or even downgrade to a Core i5 chip.

Pros
  • Slim, stylish design
  • S Pen stylus is a nice addition
  • Good battery life
Cons
  • No 4K display

The Galaxy Book Flex is everything you could want in a modern laptop. It's sleek, portable, and powerful — and beats some of the best laptops in key areas like display and battery life. The addition of the S Pen housed within the chassis is only the icing on the cake. Samsung offers a limited one-year warranty at the time of purchase.
