17.3-inch HD+ business laptop
This 17.3-inch laptop pairs an eight-core Intel Core i3-N305 processor with 32 GB of DDR4 3200 memory and a 512 GB NVMe SSD. The anti-glare HD+ panel delivers 1600 x 900 resolution at 250 nits. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics handles everyday visual tasks. It ships with Windows 11 Home and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity.
Upgrade from dual-core ultraportables
The eight-core design reaches 3.8 GHz boost clocks, outpacing typical dual-core i3 chips such as the i3-1215U for multitasking workloads. The jump is worth it when you regularly run several browser tabs, office suites and video calls together. Single-threaded legacy applications will not see the same uplift.
32 GB RAM and 512 GB NVMe headroom
The 32 GB DDR4 allocation comfortably handles large spreadsheets, heavy browser sessions and light virtual machines without paging. The PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe drive offers fast boot and app load times. Demanding creative suites, modern gaming titles or multi-terabyte media libraries will exhaust both memory and storage capacity.
