- Display brightness range up to 1000 nits with gloved touch and digitizer on a direct-bonded, anti-reflective Gorilla Glass 3 panel

Cons

- Memory is LPDDR5X at 16 GB in this configuration and the maker's spec does not describe it as upgradeable
- The integrated graphics are modest; the faster Arc graphics are offered only on the Core Ultra X7 version
