Snapdragon X processors are built on efficient Arm architecture, similar to smartphone chips. That means long battery life from the 60Wh battery, very little heat and quiet fans during everyday work. Notebookcheck’s review of this model highlights its battery life, low noise and processor performance, with an overall score of 81.9% (Notebookcheck).
The 45 TOPS Hexagon NPU qualifies this laptop as a Microsoft Copilot+ PC. It runs Windows AI features on the device, such as Windows Studio Effects for background blur and eye contact on video calls, Live Captions with translation, Click to Do and AI image tools, while keeping the CPU free for your work.
The 15.3-inch WUXGA (1920 x 1200) IPS touchscreen shows more lines of a document or web page than a standard 16:9 screen, and you can tap, scroll and zoom with your fingers. It is anti-glare and rated at 300 nits.
You get a full-size backlit keyboard with a numeric keypad, a large precision touchpad, a fingerprint reader for quick Windows Hello sign-in and a 720p webcam with a privacy shutter. The aluminium lid and MIL-STD-810H testing add durability.
Memory is fast 16GB dual-channel LPDDR5X (soldered). For storage, the laptop has two M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 slots, so you can add a second SSD (up to 1TB each) when you need more space.
Most everyday apps run natively on Snapdragon, including Microsoft 365 (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams), Chrome, Edge, Zoom, Spotify and WhatsApp. Many older Windows apps also run through Microsoft’s built-in Prism emulation. A few things may not work: some games with anti-cheat, certain VPN, printer or scanner drivers, and specialised engineering software.
