Performance
We use this computer as a daily device without having any major setbacks, since the processor can handle practically everything. Its ability to create content seemed impressive to us, since we were able to render 4K videos below its duration, for example, in Premiere Pro a 7-minute video with at least 3 layers of images and animations was finished rendering. in less than 6 minutes.
In gaming AAA titles such as Resident Evil 4, Apex Legends and RKGK we were able to run them in Full HD above 30 FPS. It is important to note that it is not a machine for video games, but it was impressive to be able to run these titles on such a light device.
The battery, for the power it has inside, lasted us an entire day of work.
