Samsung's Galaxy Book4 Edge is a gorgeous laptop featuring a 2.8K AMOLED display, a Snapdragon X Elite processor, and a range of AI features to get the most out of its NPU. With a lengthy spec sheet full of the latest internals and hardware, the Galaxy Book4 Edge usually costs quite a bit. But a combination of discounts brings the Copilot+ PC all the way down to $819.99, which is a savings of $530. To get the PC at that price, you'll have to be okay with the box of the Galaxy Book4 Edge having been opened before. If you're not comfortable with that, there are other discounts available.

Open box from Best Buy

Best Buy has a massive range of products at significant discounts, thanks to the retailer's open box deals. The Best Buy Outlet Event has featured deals, refurbished gadgets for sale, and large discounts on flagship products.

The most affordable Galaxy Book4 Edge with an open-box discount costs $819.99. That model is listed as "Fair" condition by Best Buy. If you'd like a Galaxy Book4 Edge in "Excellent" condition, you'll have to spend $890.99. Even that more expensive open-box model is a few dollars cheaper than Best Buy's discount on a Galaxy Book4 Edge ($899.99). It's also much lower than the $1,349.99 Samsung currently asks for the PC.

The exact definition of terms can vary from company to company, so Best Buy has the following chart on its site to explain what you get when shopping during the Outlet Event.

Galaxy Book4 Edge

Samsung's Galaxy Book4 Edge was among the first wave of Copilot+ PCs with Qualcomm Snapdragon X chips. The Snapdragon X Elite inside the Galaxy Book4 Edge is both efficient and powerful, offering a balance of performance and battery life demanded by many who use PCs on the go.

With its 2.8K AMOLED display, which features a 120Hz variable refresh rate, the Galaxy Book4 Edge promises a striking display. That screen can reach up to 500 nits of brightness as well.

Samsung also packed in modern internals, connectivity options, and ports inside the Galaxy Book4 Edge, including two USB4 ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, a 3.5mm audio jack, and Wi-Fi 7.

I'd argue that right now Qualcomm chips mean more for everyday computing than they do for AI tasks, but the processors are optimized for AI. Features like Windows Studio Effects, Live Captions, and Cocreator run better, thanks to the Snapdragon X Elite in the Galaxy Book4 Edge. The upcoming Windows Recall will only be available on Copilot+ PCs. If that feature is important to you, you need to catch up on the latest news about Windows Recall, including security improvements, and the option to uninstall Windows Recall.

On top of Microsoft's AI, the Galaxy Book4 Edge has a suite of tools called Galaxy AI.

As a flagship laptop from Samsung, the Galaxy Book4 Edge integrates with your PC through Link to Windows. That app is available on any PC running Windows 11, but the best experience requires select PC hardware. Microsoft and Samsung have worked together to get features like screen mirroring to work well, which is a game changer for some people's workflows.

Usually, a PC with the specs of the Galaxy Book4 Edge would cost much more than some of the other best Copilot+ PCs. On a normal day, that is the case, since the Galaxy Book4 Edge listed above retails at $1,349.99. But Best Buy has a sizeable discount on the laptop (down to $899.99), and you can save even more through an open-box discount.
