- Aura Ultrabook Dual 14 “Touch is perfect for presentations and scrolling the documents
- A superb display configuration is retained by an underlying Intel Celeron processor which simply cannot follow
- A magnetic bluetooth keyboard and a touch screen offer you tactile and futuristic input options
The Ultrabook Dual 14 “Touch aura is an ambitious entrance to the compact laptops market, targeting users who appreciate portability and a futuristic double -screen experience.
It offers an attractive factor of shape and an elegant design with two tactile screens stacked vertically with 14 inches that merge into an 18.5 inch workspace, and each screen has a 2.2k resolution with a srgb accuracy calibrated in factory.
The 360 ° friction hinge on the screen allows various modes of use, from the tablet to the full workstation, and it also offers a Bluetooth magnetic keyboard for a touch typing experience when needed, as well as a virtual tactile keyboard integrated into the screen.
Impressive visual and structural design but dull power
Thus, on paper, it looks like a serious competitor for those who need flexible real estate, especially for professionals juggling several tasks – however, a critical gap in its basic performance undervalues its larger potential.
The largest limitation is its use of an Intel Celeron N95 processor. Although it is a quad-core processor with turbo strengthening capacities, the N95 remains an entry-level chip with relatively low power.
For users who plan to execute simulations, heavy data applications or several demanding programs at the same time, this processor will have trouble.
The performance is limited not by RAM or storage, which are both available in generous configurations (16 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB SSD), but by the strangulation neck at treatment speed.
This problem is aggravated by the unconventional architecture of the device. The processor and battery are housed in half of the double -screen configuration, which means that the keyboard is entirely optional and is not part of the main body.
Although this is intelligent in terms of modularity, this raises concerns about long -term ergonomics and heat distribution, especially when used without fixing the keyboard for long periods.
That said, the connectivity of the laptop is wide, in particular the USB-A and USB-C, HDMI ports, a microSD slit and a headphone jack. It supports double -band wifi and Bluetooth 4.2.
As part of the Fathers’s promotional campaign, the Aura Ultrabook Dual 14 “Touch is currently available for $ 699, a 13% discount on the original price of $ 799, and delivery will start worldwide on June 20.
Although the price and discount are attractive, the disappointing processor is an important defect and is a circuit breaker for users eager for power.
