We are here on a very sober black chassis, mixing plastic and aluminum as materials, looking a bit ” cheap” at first glance, but which remain solid in use and transport.
The screen has a correct quality, offering a good brightness and a 144 Hz refresh for a better fluidity in game.
The 17″3 format would have made it possible to offer a keyboard adapted to this format, which is not really the case here, with compact keys, especially for the numeric keypad which will take some getting used to. The touchpad is classic but remains, like the keyboard, undersized compared to the chassis. On the right side, we find a 3.5 jack port with two USB 3.2 Type A and Type C accompanied by an HDMI and RJ45 port. On the left side, we have the plug for the 240W charger and the rest of the USB with two Type A 3.2 and 2.0. This is still quite light for this size, but sufficient for its primary use: gaming.
