Slim, metal finish with blue tint, feels more expensive, it was reasonably priced. Light weight and easy to carry. Screen is smallish or standard but I like it that way on a compact desk. Keyboard is good quality, with responsive keys for touch typing. Giving a creative flow. Keys also light which is a bonus. An extra touch is the touch pad, that includes a digital numeric display. This can be turned off to transform back to a normal touch pad. The screen clarity is sharp and bright with vivid colours . Sometime I forget it is a touch screen, but yes it is. I had on old hp laptop before this one, which was very good. This is a few leagues up again. Best I ever had. Worth stretching the budget! CR Review: Great value for money laptop but overheating issues - Amazing performance from this laptop, more than good enough for office/school work and adequate to run some games smoothly. The touch screen is a great bonus, it's not intrusive or over sensitive and works accurately. The sound quality is incredible on this laptop. I've compared it to a 2022 MacBook Air and I found that the speakers on this laptop were louder and clearer, although slightly less bass. The OLED screen does not disappoint and accompanied with the screen size, it's ideal for video consumption. However, the laptop isn't perfect, I find that the battery doesn't last as long as I'd like (6 hours) and my biggest issue is how hot the laptop can get when charging or playing games.
