Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

Regarding the "not bright enough screen" - turn off Vari-Bright in the settings of the Radeon's manager and sit with your back to the sun at least. Regarding the "sound overload on the right speaker" - it is audible even when connected to Smart TV, it's not about the laptop, but about the drivers. Those that are picked up by the native PC Manager and wheeze. Fall 2022 versions work fine. Regarding the "constantly noisy cooler" - the problem can be solved by installing a radiator on the SSD - w3bsit3-dns. Com has all the necessary information. If you work on charging and on a straight surface, there is no noise from ordinary activities (a couple of browsers, videos, instant messengers, music). Well, when running on battery power in bed on your fleecy blanket that closes the cooling system and the MacBook will make noise. Ideal for travel due to autonomy and miniature size, but not as the main car. You can play anything, even though the laptop is clearly not about games. Since there is an NFC module inside, in addition to Huawei Share, it can even be adapted for contactless payment by installing some Bluestacks and the same Google Pay on top of it. I even needed it once. 😄

Pros
  • Loading in a couple of seconds. Functional touchpad. Full charge in 1.5 hours. Metal case. Bright screen. Acceptable sound. Compactness and weight. The best autonomy for this money. The battery requires calibration 1 time per quarter. Balanced combo audio output. Very fast, SSD pleases especially. Huawei Share is a pretty handy gadget.
Cons
  • The charging plug is flimsy. Tight ports - the paint is peeling off at the edges. The plastic frame around the screen collapses on the sides when pressed. Blowing air goes to the matrix mount, ideally the laptop is cooled only in a fully deployed position. Gift bluetooth mouse "beeps" when its battery drops below 50%. Lid does not lock in closed position. If the laptop is on its side, it is ajar and slaps if it is poorly fixed in a backpack. At the same time, the lid manages to open with difficulty - only with two hands. The keyboard gets dirty very quickly.
