Mobile professionals needing a light 14-inch machine

Buyers who want a lightweight 14-inch business laptop with a quad-core processor, generous memory and a large SSD will find this configuration suitable. It includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.1, Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI, three USB 3.1 ports and one USB-C port for daily connectivity. Users who require a touchscreen, a discrete graphics card, or additional storage bays should look at other models.

32 GB DDR4 and 1 TB SSD capacity

The combination of 32 GB DDR4 memory and a 1 TB SSD determines whether this system can handle your workload without immediate upgrades. Both the memory and the storage are fixed at these capacities, so buyers needing more RAM or a second drive must choose a different configuration.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 32 GB DDR4 / 1 TB SSD version or a smaller capacity?

The 32 GB DDR4 / 1 TB SSD build gives plenty of memory for heavy multitasking and a large drive for projects; smaller RAM or storage options will limit how many apps and files you can keep open.

What does the 1.8 GHz quad-core i7-8550U deliver in daily work?

The 1.8 GHz quad-core i7-8550U with 8 MB cache handles office suites, video calls and light content creation smoothly; sustained loads will run at lower clocks to stay within the ultrabook thermal envelope.

Which USB standard do the 3.1 ports use and what speed does that cap at?

The three USB 3.1 ports run at up to 10 Gbps, so external SSDs and docks can reach their full throughput while the single USB-C and HDMI share the remaining bandwidth.
