A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

The laptop does everything you ask of it. I don't think it's a fast gaming machine, but the same rendering is brisk enough. Before buying, remember: this is still a mid-range laptop, and quite compact and ready to be with you 24/7 anywhere. The SSD is fast, the system takes off very quickly even from sleep. Again, not the level of a poppy on M1, but in terms of speed, apparently, another universe. Whether he needs a core i7, I did not understand, but just in case I bought it. Benchmarks say different things, but a small difference in money over a 3-4 year perspective (I think that's about how long it will withstand my pace of work) is quite justified.

Pros
  • To begin with, I have been using a laptop for just over a year, it survived the pandemic with remote work and work for 10-12 hours + several falls. But first things first. I bought the maximum version for about 82,000, and I will build on this. For its 15 inches and aluminum case, the laptop has a decent battery life and an SSD. But there is a problem with this: if it is unsuccessful to put it on its feet, the touchpad will stop squeezing. With him, many generally have some difficulties, but I did not notice other effects. The touch itself feels a little worse than Makovsky, but you can still use it with great pleasure. The finger works only in Windows, although attempts to run this thing on Linux had an effect, the quality turned out to be at the level of "it's easier to enter a password." At the same time, everything works amazingly in win10, comparable to the new Air on the M1. The keyboard is pleasant enough, although the buttons could be smaller for my rather short fingers. But it is in any case a more universal solution. The text is pleasant to type, the hands do not get tired. Charges quickly, discharges slowly enough to have time to work in another part of the apartment. I never took the charger with me anywhere, it is enough to reduce the brightness of the screen. The display is pleasing to the eye, but white prevails in the range of colors, which can make your eyes tired. Color rendition is good. Performance is in line with expectations. I didn’t run AAA projects on it, but something tells me that as long as the cooling system doesn’t go nuts, everything will be fine. Ports are a real treasure. They are conveniently located and have everything. Thank you Xiaomi for not being like the new poppies. The case passes the MacBook test, but the lack of an elastic band around the perimeter of the screen allows it to litter while lying in place. A little annoying, but not critical. Survived the fall from the car onto the asphalt with an edge, there was a hewn corner and the loop was slightly bent, but straightened it out with his hands. Nothing else was damaged.
Cons
  • Let's go back to the body. There is a feeling that it was possible to use a slightly thicker aluminum alloy - it would immediately be more pleasant to hold it at one corner and print on your knees. But considering that it is still heated, the pleasure is in any case so-so. Between the touchpad and the case, the seal is so-so - dirt steadily collects there. It's hard to say whether it goes deep into the computer - I haven't figured it out yet - but the fact itself is sad. This is just the build quality, which is not yet at the level of one apple brand for the Chinese brand. The gaps between the case and the lid alone are worth something (there were before the fall) The camera is purely nominal and for such money I don’t see an obvious answer why this is so. The very rustling of the cooler, about which many people write, also touched me, but it is barely audible. I do not see any problems in this, except, again, the quality of workmanship.
