Compact 12.5-inch business laptop

The non-touch display offers a 1366 x 768 resolution with shared graphics memory.
SSD storage and Windows 10 Pro readiness
The 480 GB solid-state drive replaces a traditional hard drive, providing faster boot times and application loading compared to mechanical storage. Windows 10 Pro comes pre-installed, delivering business-oriented features such as domain join and BitLocker encryption out of the box. The integrated Intel HD Graphics 4400 handles everyday visual tasks using shared system memory.
Suits mobile office work, not heavy creative loads
This laptop suits users who prioritise portability and a comfortable keyboard for document editing, email and web browsing on the move. Buyers who need a higher-resolution screen for detailed design work or more storage capacity for large media libraries should look at other models. The dual-core processor and shared graphics memory also limit suitability for demanding video editing or modern gaming.

Questions about this item
Will the 480GB SSD need replacement if I run out of space?
The 480GB SSD provides the primary storage. Capacity cannot be expanded internally because the specification lists no additional drive bay or second slot.
What limit appears first during sustained load on the Core i5 1.60GHz processor?
The dual-core Haswell CPU reaches its 2.60GHz turbo frequency under load. Thermal throttling will occur before the 3MB L3 cache becomes a bottleneck.
How much fan noise and heat does the 12.5-inch chassis produce when running all day?
The ultrathin 0.8-inch design relies on a single fan. Expect audible airflow and warm keyboard deck during continuous use, especially when the Intel HD Graphics 4400 is active.
