Negative: Relatively low resolution of the screen. Positive: Extremely high-quality magnesium alloy case very light good autonomy excellent configuration.

This is a good business laptop the only objection relates to the screen - for this price, it would have to be much better. This is sufficient for good performance in all segments except the graphical subsystem that is good enough for watching movies, but not for demanding applications and games that use graphics.
