What reviewers say
Both reviews praise performance, battery life and charging, while finding HDR limited by screen brightness. Gizmochina criticises unfinished multitasking and is more enthusiastic about the speakers; Notebookcheck finds the software usable but the audio less impressive. Their PUBG tests also differ sharply, with Gizmochina reporting high frame rates and Notebookcheck encountering a low frame-rate limit.
