Features

This is a classic thin-and-light productivity laptop, not a performance machine. The specs are balanced for students, office work, browsing, meetings, content consumption, and normal multitasking — but there are clear limitations you shouldn’t ignore.

The strongest part here is portability. At 1.4 kg with a 10-hour claimed battery life, Wi-Fi 6, SSD storage, and an IPS Full HD display, this is built for mobility and daily convenience. The IPS panel is important because cheap laptops still use terrible TN panels with weak viewing angles and washed-out colors. So visually, this should look decent for normal usage.

The processor boosting up to 4.5 GHz means everyday performance will feel responsive for:

Chrome tabs
Office work
Zoom/Meet meetings
Social media management
Netflix/YouTube
Light Canva or Photoshop work
Coding basics

The problem is memory limitation. The maximum supported RAM is only 8GB and it’s onboard dual-channel RAM, meaning it’s soldered and non-upgradable. That’s the biggest weakness here. In 2026, 8GB is becoming the bare minimum even for casual users because browsers alone eat RAM aggressively. If you multitask heavily with many tabs, Adobe apps, editing tools, or multiple programs open, you’ll feel the ceiling sooner than expected.

Another limitation is the integrated graphics. Shared graphics means this is not for gaming, heavy editing, rendering, or demanding creative workloads. Casual gaming is fine. Serious gaming is not.

The battery size itself — 39.3Wh — is actually not huge. So the “10 hours” claim is likely based on light usage at reduced brightness. Realistically expect:

5–7 hours normal use
Less if brightness is high or multitasking heavily

Also, the 45% NTSC color gamut is average at best. Fine for regular users, weak for professional color work. Content creators who care about accurate colors should avoid this category.

Overall, this type of laptop is good if your priorities are:
