If you need performance more than portability, the Odyssey has it in spades. It’s still fairly easy to carry around, this 15.6” laptop weighs 1.85kg and measures 17.7mm thick. This is with a larger 83Wh battery, which gets a beefier charger too, 135W (USB-C).
The extra juice is needed to feed the
Nvidia GPU – you can pick between a GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Max-Q and a vanilla
3050 Max-Q. This is in addition to an 11th gen Intel Core i5 or i7 (no i3 this
time around). You can get the laptop from the store with 8/16/32GB of LPDDR4X
RAM and an NVMe SSD up to 1TB. But since this is a practical model, you can put
in your own RAM and there’s a second NVMe slot for more storage.
Connectivity is great too, at least as far
as ports go. You get two USB-C ports, three USB-A 3.2, an HDMI, headphone/mic
jack, a microSD slot, a security slot and even an RJ45 if you want to hook into
LAN. There’s no 4G/5G option here, but you do get Wi-Fi 6 (no 6E this time).
The 15.6” display is a TFT LCD with 1,920 x 1080px resolution.
