Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

We are discussing a model with an Intel i5-8250 processor, 8 GB of memory, a 256 GB solid-state drive, Nvidia MX150 graphics, and MS-DOS (without Windows). In a nutshell, an outstanding solution, especially considering its price (44,000). There is nothing remarkable or cool about it; it is simply a good multimedia laptop that will enable you to browse the internet, work on office projects, write programs, and even play video games if you so desire. And now for a greater amount of detail. My laptop is brown in color. The top of the cover with a velvety feel to it (collects fingerprints, but not as much as black). The only material in the working area is matte plastic. I loved the keyboard since it is a practical shade of gray, it is fixed really well, and it requires a considerable amount of effort to hit the keys (so you won't be able to text very rapidly). Indicators can be found on the Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Power keys. When you use a laptop for business, you get to experience really pleasant physical sensations. The touchpad has a smooth and comfortable feel to it and is simple to operate. However, it is fixed in such a way that the lowest section of the panel has a slight play, which is not ideal but is not a deal breaker either. The screen is a standard TN matrix, therefore the viewing angles are rather restricted. The finish is matte, so there is no sheen (would be glossy - I would not buy a laptop). It is impossible to open the display using just one hand since the hinge is very tight. There is a complete turn of 180 degrees at the opening angle. When subjected to lengthy loads, such as playing for more than an hour, the entire left side of the laptop becomes perceptibly hotter, and the user's palm begins to sweat. When I'm in my office mode, everything is awesome and perfect. Only until the first tab is opened in the browser does the cooling mechanism begin to operate normally again. Even while it does not produce a particularly loud noise, it is nonetheless audible. This is the cost of having a slim body in a model that is more on the affordable side. After using a desktop computer, you are going to appreciate the peace and quiet of this portable laptop. But after using a three-year-old HP at work, which did not (and still does not) produce any sounds until the opening of the tenth tab in the browser, the noise from the new laptop is grating on my nerves because I am accustomed to the older model. The sound coming out of the speakers is quite loud but distorted. The battery life is around four hours when used in an office setting. Separately, I have taken note of a small power supply (65 watts), the presence of one USB Type-C port, and a card reader that is fully functional. The photo shows a test of the SSD's speed.

Pros
  • The ratio of cost to benefit. Superior constructional quality. Screen with a matte finish A portable source of power Display expands 180 degrees
Cons
  • The touchpad is not fixed perfectly (there is a slight play) Continuous operation of the air conditioning system
