Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

I am writing a review after a week of using this unit. I ordered a specially gray color, which was rarer and more expensive. The price was 63 thousand. I chose a laptop that was as similar as possible to a MacBook in all criteria, except for the lack of ports. Overall, I really like the laptop and would definitely recommend it to others. In case of any shortcomings, I will add a review.

Pros
  • Design. The black keyboard on a gray, all-aluminum chassis looks very nice. The laptop opens as it should, with one finger. Closes with a magnet. Quality iron. The 8th gen i5 is very fresh, and the SSD is super fast, going from sleep to work in 1 second, and the fingerprint scanner lets you get started even faster. Very rarely starts to make noise, weakly heated. Battery. It charges very quickly, the website says 60% in 50 minutes. Didn't check, but while I took a shower, it charged from 20 to 60 (about 20 minutes). The charge holds perfectly, according to the declared characteristics up to 14 hours, which is better than a MacBook and many others. If you use it like a typewriter, in power saving mode (no performance needed), it will last more than 10 hours (personally verified). Screen. Good bright screen, Full HD resolution. The coating is not matte, but not glossy either, but very pleasant: there are no glare and graininess, but it is easily soiled (it is better not to touch it with your fingers). The only thing is that at the minimum brightness it is brighter than we would like, working in complete darkness is not pleasant to the eyes. And the maximum brightness is high, I use at a level less than the middle. I would also like to note the presence of all important ports for me - HDMI and USB, others are not particularly interesting to me. Music from harman / kardon is of high quality, I use wireless headphones from this brand and was pleased with the sound. True, the speakers are located on the bottom, which is unusual. This does not greatly affect the sound quality, I did not succeed in closing it with my hand or some kind of blanket so that they could not be heard. 256 GB of memory is enough for an ordinary person, light files can be stored on a flash drive or in the cloud. I did not try to launch games, only Hearthstone - it works at maximum speed, everything is beautiful. The keyboard and touchpad are not MacBook level, but comfortable: typing is easy, gestures are all supported.
Cons
  • Windows. I'm used to using iOS, which allows me to use it right away without configuring anything, and there are almost no bugs in it. I think the same is true for MacOS. The difference between Windows is that there are some bugs that do not affect the operation of the system as a whole, but they are not aesthetically pleasing, and besides, you have to configure everything for yourself, a lot of unnecessary pre-installed programs.
