A Laptop weighing less than 1 kg First 16-champ Lenovo-Lecoo Air 16
The Lecoo Air 16 stands as the new laptop from Lenovo which creates some very rare exceptions considering the weight for size that it offers. This one is said to be the world's first 16-inch laptop weighing barely 1 kg (around 2.2 lbs) and measuring just about 1 cm in thickness, the laptop easily offers a display that is larger than its other ultralight rivals.
Design and Display The Main Draw
The main point of attraction of the Lecoo Air 16 lies in its ultraportable nature. There exist other 1-kg notebooks, such as the ASUS Zenbook S13; however, they have smaller 13- or 14-inch screens. The magnesium alloy chassis gives Lenovo the necessary light weight of Air 16; hence the overall design becomes sober and travel-friendly.
There is no trade-off regarding the laptop's display, as a grand 16-inch panel is packed with:
- Resolution: 2.5K (2560 x 1440 pixels).
- Refresh Rate: 120Hz.
The seamless design of the keyboard surface mirrors the color of the laptop body itself and has also been used in certain Dell premium models.
Specification-Hardware And Trade-Offs
The processor-generation installed in the Lecoo Air 16 is an old one by design-to-be-traded-for-the-price pacts; Intel has not confirmed configurations yet. As of now, it is known that 125H Intel Core Ultra 5 is going with one of the lower-end CPUs in the Meteor Lake series.
The rest of the specs, despite the older CPU, are pretty modern and quite capable:
- RAM: 32GB LPDDR5 memory type at a frequency of 6400 MT/s.
- Storage: 1TB Solid State Drive.
- Battery: A 60Wh battery.
- Connectivity: An appropriate selection of ports including 2x USB-A, 2x USB-C, an HDMI port, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
Lecoo Air 16 For Whom
The Lecoo Air 16 is made for people who are ready to sacrifice all else for a big screen and portability. It may not be powerful enough for resource-heavy applications, but it will be excellent for day-to-day productivity and media consumption tasks.
Price and Availability
Expected to ship on October 30, the Lenovo Lecoo Air 16 has been made available for pre-order for 4,999 Yuan, roughly around 600 USD.
