It's a shame, however, that the wireless connectivity is old, offering Wi-Fi 5 ac and Bluetooth 5.1 modules, and not more recent and efficient Wi-Fi 6 ax and Bluetooth 5.2/.3.
We also regret that the chiclet keyboard does not have a practical backlighting solution when the keys are difficult to discern.
The Full HD screen is suitable for videos due to its 16:9 format and benefits from significant viewing angles, both horizontal and vertical, thanks to its IPS technology.
On the other hand, as we are not dealing with high-end IPS, the colorimetry of the screen is classic.
Its anti-reflective treatment makes it in any case more readable than a shiny panel in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors).
