Lightweigth laptop. Good gift.
Sorry for my English
The choice fell on this laptop because I looked for 14 ".
This is a gift to my wife, she has long wanted a beautiful, moderately compact laptop for work. 13" the display is not enough 15" already a lot and not very comfortable is placed in the bag (does not fit at all).
The given model turned out to be ideal for her.
Thin frames (they are really thin, I think the next generation can make frames even thinner and in the same size will fit 15).
A special feature is the laptop cover, which becomes a stand when opened. And as the cooling system - the blowing of air takes place along the display and you do not need to worry that the laptop does not have enough air (usually blowing takes place sideways).
Very beautiful color white + gold, which even allows me to sometimes take it for work (in moments when we go somewhere to rest, for example in a cafe).
The laptop copes with everyday tasks well. Promotes this 8 GB of RAM, i3 7th generation and a fast SSD drive (the latter would be desirable for more)
Slightly frustrating lack of FHD and dull display - it is difficult to work outdoors in bright sunshine. But the screen has good viewing angles.
Given that we needed a second keyboard layout, the Russian letters were applied with a thin brush. we did not want to spoil such beautiful keys with stickers.
The keyboard is comfortable, moderately noisy, but slightly bends when working. In comfort does not affect.
Various ports for: memory card reading, 2 usb3, hdmi, usbc, ETHERNET and separate power connector.
Time of autonomous work when working on the Internet (writing an article, searching for pictures and quick editing) - was about 4.5 hours to 20% of the charge. This is when working on a wi-fi.
We can safely call it a fast one.
Windows 10 is installed licensed, which is very encouraging.
Competitors who were also considered:
Lenovo (but disappeared because of the dull design, and terrible architecture - the relative of the problem. And a more or less good model is already unreasonably expensive for this brand)
Asus zenbuk (considered by the w/u, but in terms of 14 it is almost impossible to find)
McBook Air (but the budget was obtained only in 2010-2011, and the 13.3" is not enough)
Laptops from China were also considered, but the delivery to the EU from China will automatically add 20% of VAT, which puts an end to a profitable purchase.
Therefore, we stopped at this laptop. He was delivered from England to Bulgaria, the delivery was to the apartment.
Of the problems after unpacking only one - you need another socket. Quest is decided in 1-3 hours by hike to the store.
Pluses:
i3 7th generation,
8 GB of RAM,
fast SSD,
all kinds of ports,
comfortable keyboard,
fast wi-fi,
licensed Windows 10,
design,
price.
Disadvantages:
At such thickness it would be desirable to have a normal videocard,
if you do not have a video card, you could have been thinner,
small amount of SSD (but can be replaced)
I would one more USB port,
lack of PCD resolution
Outcome:
For the proposed price an excellent solution to a modest budget, if there is a stock with a discount - I recommend to buy unequivocally.
I think 1-2 years will serve accurately, while the built-in capacities will suffice.
I repeat - in the games of tests was not conducted, tk. was bought for other purposes.
