Back in CES 2020, Intel had unveiled its first discrete graphics card dubbed the DG1, which was officially called the Iris Xe Max. This GPU was unveiled to break to duopoly of NVIDIA and AMD in the market, with the Chuwi CoreBook Xe being the first laptop to feature the company’s new graphics card.

The Chuwi CoreBook Xe will feature the Iris Xe Max discrete GPU and is set to launch across the globe sometime in April 2021, with an expected price tag of around 599 US Dollars.

It features 96 EU (execution units), along with 768 core stream processors, with clock frequency of 1.65GHz, and 4GB of VRAM.

The DG1 also supports Intel’s Deeplink technology, which also improves video encoding performance for productivity, while the GPU is also capable enough to run AAA level games like Destiny 2 as its performance was close to that of an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti MAX-Q. Talking about the laptop, the Chuwi CoreBook Xe is targeted towards professionals and is positioned as a business notebook.

Under the hood, the upcoming notebook houses a 10th Gen Intel Core i5 processor, which features four cores and eight threads. Its maximum clock speed can reach up to 4.2GHz. Furthermore, it sports a 15.6 inch display that has an aspect ratio of 16:9 and is an IPS panel. Prospective buyers can also choose between a 1080p panel or a 2K display as well.

Most laptops available in the market have a 16:9 aspect ratio screen, which is fine for entertainment but, poses a drawback for productivity as it offers poor content and narrow width.

Microsoft vigorously promotes a 3:2 screen in its products because it helps maximize productivity and use efficiency. Surface is one great example of a device that boasts this aspect ratio.

Let’s take a look at why the 3:2 screen is a better option.

• The vertical height for this ratio is higher and can display more content in the same screen size. It adds readability and working convenience as the user does not have to slide up and down constantly.
• It can efficiently hold two pieces of A4 paper side by side, adding convenience while working on multiple documents.
• 3:2 screen boasts a wider field of view. Some laptops like Chuwi 3:2 series are designed with a narrow bezel, adding viewing ease while working for long hours.

Convertibles notebooks were always expensive — you often had to shell out more than $1,000 to purchase a decent high-end model which is suitable for productivity. But in the past few years, a new series of convertible tablets have made great success. We are talking about the Chinese Microsoft Surface-wannabes, like the new Chuwi CoreBook. It is a powerful 2-in-1 launched, thanks to IndieGoGo, after the company reached the $30,000 crowdfunding goal. Today, we can show you the Windows 10 monster with detailed hands-on photos.

Chuwi CoreBook rocks a full metal unibody design and a detachable magnetic keyboard which can also be used as a cover for the tablet. The kickstand will transform it into a notebook. The bezels around the display are well-optimized, but there is space for a fingerprint reader under the screen. Unfortunately, due to its sleek design, there are no USB full-size ports, but there is a USB Type-C port to which you can connect a USB hub to add some full-size ports, or to connect a mouse, a USB key or other peripherals. Chuwi CoreBook includes an active digitizer: this means that you can use a stylus for handwriting or drawing.

However, this tablet only supports 1024 pressure levels, while the best convertible tablets like the Surface Pro support up to 4096 pressure levels. Chuwi CoreBook has a 13.3-inch display that shows images with a Full HD resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels. Under the hood, it sports a dual-core Intel Core M3-7Y30 CPU (Kaby Lake architecture) with Hyper-Threading, a 4.5W TDP and a max clock frequency of 2.6 GHz.
