Questions about this item

What external resolution and refresh rate can the HDMI 2.1 port on the Katana 15 drive?

The HDMI 2.1 port supports up to 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 120Hz, letting you connect a high-refresh external monitor without a dock.

What are the exact chassis dimensions and weight for bag or desk planning?

The laptop measures 14.13 by 0.98 by 10.2 inches and weighs 4.96 pounds, so it fits most 15.6-inch sleeves and backpacks.

How do I add more storage, and which screw do people forget to remove?

Remove all bottom-case screws, including the hidden one under the centre rubber foot, lift the panel, then insert a second PCIe SSD into the open M.2 slot.
