What reviewers say

Reviewers praise how light it is, the robust Ceraluminum finish, the vivid OLED screen and long battery life. Notebookcheck and Engadget found the base Snapdragon X chip slow, especially in graphics, though Expert Reviews found it snappy day to day; Notebookcheck wanted a better keyboard and more ports, where Engadget found both good, and Expert Reviews disliked the speakers and webcam.
