The average CPU Passmark benchmark is 13276 for this powerful and fast processor for handling all your daily and most of your demanding tasks. The typical TDP is 15 watts which will help with the low energy consumption. The cooling system and the power limit of a computer determines the long-term sustaining of performance of this CPU.

Both the 512GB RAM and 16GB RAM are generous amounts at this price point. You have a decent amount of storage space and plenty of SSD speed when you’re opening files or starting the computer. And 16GB DDR4 memory is good for multitasking power to let you have different browser tabs, apps and software simultaneously. Connectivity options include the 802.11ac wireless, Bluetooth 5, Gigabit Ethernet LAN, 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports with 10 GBps data transfer speeds, 2 x USB 2.0 ports, a headphone microphone combo, a HDMI-out, a power DC jack and a dock for your smartphone for easy engagement on multiple screens or having your phone right in front of you.

23.8-inch Full HD LED-backlit non-touch display with the narrow bezels on three sides has the 1920 x 1080-pixel resolution, good contrast and vibrant colors and IPS panel for great viewing at any angle. The built-in Radeon RX Vega 7 iGPU offers similar performance to the also integrated Iris G7 and dedicated NVIDIA GeForce MX250 graphics cards and a bit less than the RX Vega 8 GPU. It is more than adequate for the daily graphics tasks and you can play some of the latest games at the lowest settings and resolutions. And you can play the less demanding games like Dirt Rally 2.0 and Fifa 20 at the high settings and Full HD resolution.

The sound quality with the sharply etched audio with high octave is decent through the two 3-watt Harmon Kardon speakers. There is a hidden webcam on the top bezel with up to 5m clarity for clear and authentic video chats with friends, family and colleagues. Hidden means you can easily push the webcam down for security purposes, when you want your privacy. It is nice to have such a powerful All-in-One machine that is convenient and easy to use and without the clutter of cables or a tower. You’ll get a wireless keyboard and mouse included as well as the built-in security features like the instant login through face recognition on webcam and instant privacy. It works quietly without any noise issues even under load.
