The tactile induces a shiny coating which gives punch to the colors but is subject to reflections in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors).

The screen also stands out with its OLED technology providing significant vertical and horizontal viewing angles. And above all, great black depth as well as DCI-P3 high colorimetric fidelity but also low latency. This, like the frequency of 120Hz, contributes to providing above-average fluidity, with many panels being satisfied with a refresh rate of 120Hz.

However, this hybrid laptop delivers solid general performance which will delight as many users as possible, particularly creators working in areas requiring RAM and CPU resources using multi-core and Artificial Intelligence, such as video editing, 3D rendering or photo editing.

In fact, it is built around a good amount of above-average 24 GB RAM. And above all a processor Krackan Point recent ones with AI capabilities, in this case the AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 equipped with 8 cores in addition to the Radeon 860M graphics solution.

In practice, such components perform multimedia processing much more quickly than a PC based on 16 GB DDR4/5 as well as a classic Quad/Hexa Core.

Processing is even faster as it benefits from the great responsiveness provided by the SSD, which also provides great fluidity.
This is reflected in particular on a daily basis by starts/stops which are carried out quickly like the launches of software and arrival on the cards of online games.

In terms of gaming, however, given the absence of a dedicated onboard graphics card, but also the 2.8K definition of the screen requiring more graphics calculations to play than in Full HD, which implies a lower number of fps, concessions are necessary.
We are clearly thinking of a reduction in screen definition. So we can play light to modest games thanks to the Radeon 860M thanks to which we can also watch photos and HD videos.

Coming back to the SSD which is energy efficient, robust, silent and very fast, it offers a high capacity of 1000 GB here.
As a result, you can comfortably install and store multiple applications and files, including personal creations.

Finally, expect this high-performance 2-in-1 multimedia and AI-oriented laptop to heat up and make itself heard when pushed hard (e.g. processing).
To contain its temperatures, we can add a ventilated support (remember to check the dimensions carefully!)
