Battery 30 h What reviewers say Reviewers praise the bright, sharp AMOLED touchscreen, the slim and solid aluminium body, long battery life and good Panther Lake performance. The common complaint is the high price; TechRadar and Trusted Reviews found the ports limited, TechRadar found it heavy, and Notebookcheck notes the screen uses PWM flicker and the card reader and number pad have gone.
