What is it with PCIe SSD?
The fact that this comes with the largest storage makes it almost my favorite on this list. But, I find it annoying to see a slow SSD card … Anyway, I will let that pass and get this as a good deal for its current price considering it comes with Windows 11 pre-installed.

I just wished they could have given this a backlight keyboard. But still, it’s a good deal except that don’t expect to get the 7 hours as the 11th gen is really a powerful consumer.

If asked to change a configuration on this the only thing I am changing is the core i3 11th gen. better get a core i7 10th gen and it’s all settled plus another thing is a backlight keyboard.

I just liked the storage provided and also the processor makes it slightly better… But I wish they gave us a dedicated GPU instead of an integrated one.
