For those evaluating a Samsung Galaxy book Pro 2 - 5G, here are some internal details.
Images can be viewed at the provided link.
The cover is challenging to remove, but with the appropriate tools and care, it can be undone and reassembled. The machine memory is 16 GB DDR5, which is non-upgradable and runs at 6400 Mhz in the BIOS, though this speed cannot reach the full 6400 Mhz.
Under the central heatsink, a component labeled SAMSUNG MZVL2512HCQ-00B is present, which corresponds to a 512 GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive (as per HWINFO64). This size matches the standard 2280 NVMe according to Google.
I wasn’t sure which tool to use for removing the heatsink, so I left it in place. The Wi-Fi card is an Intel AX211, as shown in the pictures, but it has a screw—though I’m unsure if it’s removable.
The 5G modem suggests there isn’t a second M2 slot available.
This gives you a clear view of what the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 2 5G looks like internally.
p.s. I’m puzzled about the black electrical tape on the right side. How can there be a second M2 slot in a non-5G version? It seems they might have missed this detail.

I saw that the South Korean edition included Intel Arc Graphics, while the EU version had Intel Iris Graphics.

You can inquire about the 5G modem in the Galaxy Book Pro 2 - 5G, and whether it uses the Intel 5000 solution developed by MediaTek.
