What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the smooth display and long battery life, but find low-light and ultra wide photos weaker. Notebookcheck reports consistently fast performance; Les Numériques finds occasional stutters in demanding games. Notebookcheck likes the fingerprint-resistant silver finish, while Les Numériques criticises fingerprint marks on its review unit.
