Apple MacBook Air 13 (Early 2024) in-depth review
Just like any other manufacturer, Apple offers new devices every year. They sport modern hardware and other improvements. This time around we'll show you the Apple MacBook Air (13", M3). As you may already guess by looking at the name, this machine has the M3 SoC combined with 8-core or 10-core iGPU plus Wi-Fi 6E for connectivity. Compared to the M2 predecessor, this machine looks like a decent refresh in terms of hardware and features. Aside from the faster CPU and GPUs, the RAM is also soldered. It's great to see that even the default 256GB storage option features two NANDs which significant[...]

Apple MacBook Air 13 (2022) in-depth review
Apple regards its MacBook Air as the best-selling 13-inch laptop in the world. The company is also notorious for artificially differentiating the Air from the Pro, by either reducing its port count, limiting its cooling, or both. Well, this year, Apple did something unexpected. The manufacturer created all new housing for the Air, which includes a new display form factor (it now has the infamous notch), while the Pro remained largely overlooked.Indeed, both devices are outfitted with the latest Apple M2 chip. And once again, the MacBook Pro 13 (2022) receives an active cooling solution, w[...]

- Doesn't use PWM
- Great build quality
- Brutal battery life

Acer Aspire 3 (A315-24P) in-depth review
Today, we are going to tell you all you need to know about a laptop, which will shatter the entry-level mobile market. Or will it? This question arises with every machine bold enough to make such claims, that's for sure.But there is one particular reason we think this one might fail in its quest (which may be the very reason it succeeds eventually). Precisely, we're talking about the processors of choice. They are the Ryzen 3 7320U, and the Ryzen 5 7520U. Finally, one would say, a Ryzen 7000U CPU to hit the market.As you will learn later on, this is not exactly the case. To make use o[...]

HP 15 (15-fc0000, fd0000, hr0000) in-depth review
It's clear like night and day that you don't need a high-end or even a mid-range laptop for normal light tasks. A modest 15W CPU is more than enough if it's accompanied by 16GB of RAM and a decent SSD. The HP 15 (15-fc0000) is an inexpensive device that will do the job for people who want to get a notebook on a budget for browsing the Web and and playing light games from time to time. However, you have to pay attention to the specs before buying because the machines with Zen 2 CPUs are tied with up to 16GB of soldered RAM while the ones with Zen 3 chips rely on a pair of SODIMMs which makes th[...]

Pros
- Clean design
- Good comfort during full loads
- Light (1.60 kg)
- Decent color accuracy with our Design & Office profile (BOE09E2)
- Acceptable max brightness of 287 nits (BOE09E2)
- Decent input devices
- 3x USB ports
- The fan isn't noisy even in "Best performance" mode
- Decent battery life given the limited 41Wh capacity (~ 6 hours and a half of videos)
- Web camera with a privacy shutter
- Low NVMe temperatures
- Lid with a lever design
- Optional fingerprint reader and a 1080p Web camera
- Clear sound quality
- Ryzen 5 7520U can maintain a 3.36 GHz clock even in long loads
- 2x SODIMMs for the Zen 3-based machines
Cons
- Just 1x M.2 slot
- The plastic build could be more stable
- You can't open the lid with one hand
- Rather low SSD speed because of the slow transfer rate of the slot (PCIe 3.0 x2)
- The middle of the keyboard flexes during typing
- Soldered RAM for the laptops with Zen 2 CPUs
- Low sRGB coverage and narrow viewing angles (BOE09E2)
- Bad contrast ratio of 290:1 (BOE09E2)
- All ports are rated at 5 Gbps and they don't support charging or DisplayPort
