Reviewer score 85% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from notebookcheck have found:
Under load, the top of the chassis gets as hot as 37.9 °C (100.22 °F) The middle of the device gets the hottest. Bang & Olufsen-tuned speakers have no trouble reproducing the mids and the highs. The speakers are fine for Zoom and Skype calls, but they are not ideal for listening to music.
Pros
  • Very good battery life
  • High-quality housing
  • Good input devices
  • Good keyboard
Cons
  • Low PWM
  • Short battery life
