Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well done, but I won't buy any more.

In summary, the major benefits of the subject are a highly (directly very powerful) processor and 16 GB of memory. The biggest issue is the screen's lack of brightness. I could get by with an i5 8250u and 8 GB of RAM on a Xiaomi Mi Air 13 2022. And here's a bit more: On 7/17/2022 only did we receive the laptop. The more I learn, the more I intend to eat my review. Here, I'll primarily use my own Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air 13 2022 (i5 6200u) as a point of comparison. To begin, let me say that iron is a highly potent material. Scores 177 out of a possible 1177 in Cinebench R15. The specialized software is quick and easy to use. Very quick rendering times can be expected while using Fusion 360. The picture quality (45% NTSC) was my primary concern prior to purchase. It's quite typical, in fact. It's adequate for my needs (I still have a regular external monitor). Don't use it if you need to edit videos or photos seriously in Photoshop.

Pros
  • Extremely robust (with a 16GB RAM and 8-core 4700U processor). Proficient construction Charging over USB Type-C is adorable (in my opinion). Powerful autonomy (five hours of YouTube at 1440p)
Cons
  • The quality of the screen is average. I used an external monitor (Dell P2418D) with 100% sRGB to try to show the difference in the photo, but it's still not clear. The colors on the laptop are noticeably more muted, and the white is noticeably pink (though the photo makes it appear bluer for some reason). Odd illumination of the keyboard. You can notice it if you turn the keyboard over and examine it from underneath. It may take some getting used to the awkward placement of the power button. The laptop's USB ports are cramped and only accessible from one side. The feel of the touchpad is inferior to that of Xiaomi's. But it serves its purpose admirably (supports all Windows Precission motions). The quality of the webcam is around par. A step down from Xiaomi, but an improvement above ultra-low-cost laptops. The quality of one's own audio is satisfactory. However, Xiaomi is slightly superior. There is no computer software installed. Of course, there's no trouble with installing Windows, but purchasers should be aware that Microsoft's OS will add around $10,000 to their budget unless they switch to Linux or make other sacrifices.
