XIDU has already released 2 new laptops recently,
Philbook Max and Tour Pro, and both received a warm welcome by users,
especially when they come with discount coupons. But a company’s R&D
department never stops to develop so a new laptop is going to be released soon
named PhilBook Y13.
The Y13 is another easy to carry and lightweight
model as it measures 307.4mm*210.7mm and has a 13.3″ display. The case retains
the same design as in TOur Pro with Dark Grey metal but with some details
different. The metal spindle is more like that of Philbook Pro while there are
newly added heat dissipation holes being that enable the device to increase its
heat-dissipation capacity.
Following the tradition of other models, the
PhilBook Y13 is a 2in1 laptop as there is a metal hinge that allows the lid to
rotate 360°. That, combined with the multi-touch display, turns it into a
tablet in seconds. Other than that, there are other modes like tent mode to use
when watching a movie for example.
XIDU has been paying great importance to screen
quality in all of its products and PhilBook Y13 is no exception. It sports an
IPS panel with FHD resolution and the bezels are ultra-narrow at 4.9mm, with
the total screen/body ratio reaching 75%. Definitely, considerable progress for
XIDU that used to have laptops with big borders.
XIDU PhilBook Y3As far as performance is concerned,
the PhilBook Y13 comes with the 8th Gen Intel Kaby Lake R CPU combined with
Intel’s 610 GPU accompanied by 8GB of LPDDR4 RAM. It is intended for light
office work and to that direction, it features all the basic ports like 1xUSB
3.0 Type-A port, a Type-C port, 3.5mm headphone jack, and one TF card slot that
supports SDHC/SDXC memory cards. If you’ve been looking for an affordable yet
capable laptop, keep an eye on the news over the next days for the official
launch of the PhilBook Y13.
