USB Type-C charging supports up to 40Gbps data and video bandwidth through the Thunderbolt 3 connection. The ultra-light design at 2.49 lbs balances portability with the thermal demands of the Intel Core i7-7500U reaching 3.5 GHz.

Questions about this item

Does the laptop ship with its power adapter and cable, or must I purchase a USB-C charger separately?

The system includes a USB Type-C charging port rated for up to 40 Gbps Thunderbolt 3 data and video bandwidth, and the box contains the matching USB-C power adapter so no extra charger is required.

Should I select the 500 GB SSD version or look for a larger capacity drive?

This unit is configured with a single 500 GB solid-state drive and 8 GB of memory; there is no larger-capacity option listed for this model, so the 500 GB SSD is the only storage choice available.

How does the 3.5 GHz maximum turbo speed of the Core i7-7500U feel in everyday Windows 7 Pro workloads?

The dual-core processor reaches 3.5 GHz on boost, giving snappy response for office applications and web browsing on the 14.0 inch 2560 x 1440 IPS panel while the 2.49 lb chassis stays cool and quiet.
