And especially those who perform modest multimedia work using multicore and RAM, such as video encoding or photo editing.
Thanks to the Radeon Vega 8 graphics module, you can also watch photos and videos and play light games.
On the other hand, if the project is to carry out work that often requires processor and/or graphics resources, it is better to turn to a PC with a non-low-power processor and/or an appropriate dedicated graphics card.
On the storage side, we find an SSD that rivals the standard hard disk in terms of capacity with its 512 GB while being silent, less energy consuming, more robust and much faster.
As a result, thanks to the SSD, you can start/stop, process and launch software much faster, or even get to the online games faster.
More generally, the SSD guarantees a much better fluidity and reactivity in use than a hard disk.
And if you need more than 512GB? Then you can use an external storage unit. A USB 3.0/USB-C device is an interesting option for fast transfers.
As for the autonomy of this elegant silver Ultrabook whose controlled weight and slimness make it easy to carry, count on about 8 hours of battery operation in light use.
