The computer has enough power of the Core i9, 32GB of RAM and 1TB SSD but without an external graphics card, it only stays with Intel integrated graphics that are incapable of playing modern 3D games.

The laptop can be configured with standard 1080p or 4K HDR display. Battery life is impressive at 8 hours. Connectivity consists of two Thunderbolt 3 ports and USB 3.1 Gen2 ports.
