That OLED though
Photos and films look incredible. The design turns heads and the keyboard is a joy. Just keep the charger nearby on long days.

Beautiful, average battery
Gorgeous build and screen. Battery is only OK and I had to get used to the touch function row. Still my favorite Windows ultrabook to look at.

Buyer questions

Questions & answers

Real questions from buyers, answered by owners and the ComparZone team.

From the community

QCan it handle photo editing?
Yes — the OLED color accuracy and Core Ultra performance make it well suited to Lightroom and Photoshop, though heavy exports run cooler on larger laptops.
QDoes it support Wi-Fi 7?
It uses Wi-Fi 6E on most configurations; check the exact SKU as newer revisions add Wi-Fi 7.

Frequently asked

Is the OLED worth it?
For media, photo, and design work, yes — it is sharp, vibrant, and color-accurate. It does cost some battery life versus the FHD+ panel.
Does it have a headphone jack?
No — it ships with two USB-C/Thunderbolt ports and a USB-C dongle. Plan for an adapter for audio and USB-A.
How is the invisible trackpad?
It uses haptic feedback and works well once you adjust, though some users prefer a traditional trackpad with defined edges.
