It\u2019s not built for gaming or 3D design, but it\u2019s equipped to handle nearly everything else.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>Build Quality and Design<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\nThe QY-45Y3-Q8W32 specs include a minimalist aluminum body that is premium to touch at the given price. It is professional in appearance and would be liked by the students as well as office people. The weight of 1.8 kg is in a nice spot – light enough to still be usable as a traveling bike, heavy enough to be quite solidly built. <\/span>The keyboard is full, adjustable backlit, and has tactile keys that allow typing at length very conveniently. The trackpad is quite big and precise, and a fingerprint reader has been added, which adds to the safety aspect of a laptop of this range, which is a nice addition.<\/span><\/p>\nNoteworthy Build Features:<\/b><\/p>\n\n- Slim-bezel Full HD screen improves the screen-to-body ratio.<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/li>\n- Well-ventilated base helps regulate thermals during heavy use.<\/span>
