Specifications are collected from official manufacturer websites. Please verify the specifications before proceeding with your final purchase. If you notice any problem you can report it here.
Positive: VFM. User-friendly laptop for simple tasks.
Negative: Extremely poor screen. The colors are completely faded, while the high brightness completely ruins them. Viewing angles are almost non-existent. With the screen at 90 degrees from the face, the edges still manage to darken.
The design and placement of the keyboard and touchpad are not ergonomic. They have placed the Numpad on the right, resulting in the entire keyboard not being symmetrically centered on the screen, and you have to choose between having the screen in front of you or the keyboard. The same problem exists with the touchpad, which is not in the center of the laptop.
Speaking of the touchpad, it is small. If they hadn't included those completely useless buttons, they would have saved a lot of space.
In terms of speed, it barely runs Windows 11. Simple functions like opening the start menu and the pop-up window with sound, brightness, etc. settings are delayed and often freeze.
Bluetooth for wireless headphones constantly has issues, either not connecting to the headphones or freezing and not disconnecting them, etc. I use the Xiaomi Redmi Earbuds 2 Lite, I haven't tried others to have a complete opinion.
Purchased for around €260. I wouldn't pay more for it.
Edit: After months of use, the battery is very bad. Without a charger, you can't go anywhere.
Edit: 8 months after purchase. The touchpad is now particularly unusable as simply making contact with it, without moving the cursor, causes it to jitter everywhere. Overall, the accuracy of the touchpad, both in movement and touch (tap for click), is so poor that I prefer to use a wireless mouse.
Edit: The cursor seems to jitter only in Windows 11. I tried it on Linux Mint and didn't notice the same problem.
The keyboard is not something exceptional, but it is more than value for money. Perhaps the best purchase I have made in a laptop. The screen is not IPS for those who have doubts, but it is decent with very good clarity and works well in bright environments easily
