  • Includes a 15.6" FHD (1920x1080) TN anti-glare display, providing clear visuals for professional use.

  • Offers diverse connectivity including USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 with Power Delivery and DisplayPort 1.2 support, HDMI 1.4b, and Ethernet.

👎 Cons

  • The TN display panel, while FHD and anti-glare, typically offers narrower viewing angles and less vibrant colors compared to IPS panels.
  • The 220nits brightness of the display is relatively low, which may make it difficult to use in brightly lit environments or outdoors.
  • The laptop does not feature a backlit keyboard, which can be a limitation for users working in low-light conditions.
  • The 8GB DDR4-3200MHz SDRAM Memory, while fast, may be a limiting factor for extremely memory-intensive business applications or extensive multitasking.
  • Connectivity is listed as RTL8822CE 11ac, 2x2 + BT5.0, which means it uses Wi-Fi 5 (ac) rather than the newer Wi-Fi 6 (ax) standard.
