XMG has launched the new FUSION 15 (L25), the most portable model in its current FUSION lineup. Built with a 15.3-inch aluminium body and weighing 1.95 kilograms, it serves as the Intel version of the XMG CORE 15. The laptop is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 7 255H processor and is the only XMG model that offers the GeForce RTX 5050 GPU, along with options for the RTX 5060 and RTX 5070.

The FUSION 15 has a 2560 x 1600 IPS display with a 300 Hz refresh rate, 500 nits brightness, and 100 percent sRGB color coverage. The 99.8 Wh battery provides over 10 hours of video streaming and lasts even longer for light office work. With a focus on efficiency, this model is smaller than the 16-inch FUSION 16, measuring 342 x 236 x 22 mm.

The cooling system uses two 70 mm fans and 132 copper fins to manage heat through two rear vents. Both the CPU and GPU are cooled with Honeywell PTM7958 phase-change thermal pads.

The XMG Control Center lets users fine-tune power and fan settings. GPU power can be set between 50 and 115 watts, and CPU power from 10 to 90 watts. Custom fan curves can also be defined. NVIDIA Optimus automatically switches between integrated and dedicated graphics, but users can choose to run only on iGPU or dGPU if needed.

The laptop supports up to 128 GB of DDR5 RAM and 16 TB of SSD storage through two SO-DIMM and two M.2 PCIe 4.0 slots. RAM speeds reach 6400 MT/s, and pre-applied thermal pads help maintain temperature stability.

Ports include Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1 and 2.0b, Mini DisplayPort 2.1, USB-C 3.2 Gen2, three USB-A 3.2 Gen1, Gigabit LAN, an audio jack, and an SD Express card reader. It supports Wi-Fi 7 and can connect up to five external monitors.

The edge-to-edge keyboard has per-key RGB lighting, a numeric keypad, and N-key rollover. A large 123 x 77.5 mm Mylar touchpad and a Full HD webcam with a privacy shutter are also included.

Pricing & availability

The base model with an RTX 5050, 16 GB DDR5-5600 RAM, and 1 TB SSD is priced at €1,549 including VAT. It is available now on bestware.com.

Both laptops feature 2,560 × 1,600 IPS panels with 300 Hz refresh rates and 500-nit brightness. The CORE 15 covers 100% sRGB, while the CORE 16 extends to full DCI-P3. Memory is expandable up to 128 GB DDR5-5600, with dual PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots supporting up to 16 TB of SSD storage.

Ports and Connectivity

The CORE 15 offers two HDMI 2.1 outputs, while the CORE 16 includes one. Shared features include Mini DisplayPort 2.1, USB4 with 140 W power delivery, USB-C 3.2 Gen2, three USB-A ports, Gigabit LAN, audio jack, SD Express reader, and Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 6. The CORE 15 supports five external displays; the CORE 16 supports four.

Pricing and Availability

Base configurations with Ryzen AI 7 350, RTX 5060, 16 GB DDR5 RAM, and a 1 TB SSD start at €1,549 for the CORE 15 and €1,579 for the CORE 16. Upgrades include €125 for the Ryzen AI 9 365, €290 for the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, and €195 for the RTX 5070. Both models are available now on bestware.com with a 5% launch discount.

The post XMG Pro 16 Studio M24 gaming laptop with Core i9-14900HX CPU & RTX 4070 GPU launched appeared first on Gizmochina.

Schenker‘s renowned gaming brand, XMG, has made an exciting announcement regarding its latest APEX-series laptops. In an unexpected move, the APEX line-up will now serve as the entry-level range, typically filled by the CORE line. Despite this change, the newly introduced M23 variants are anticipated to deliver a performance level in the mid to upper-mid-range category. This is made possible by the inclusion of graphics options with a 115W TGP (Total Graphics Power), which can further increase by up to 25W through the Dynamic Boost feature, enabling a maximum power rating of 140W for the mobile RTX 40-series.

Notably, the APEX series is not merely a refresh; it boasts a revamped chassis with significant improvements in cooling and a user-serviceable design featuring dual DDR5 and PCIe Gen 4×4 slots. The M23 design, in particular, will serve as the foundation for future models that will adopt AMD Phoenix platforms and offer WQHD display options.

The APEX 15 and 17 models feature 144Hz, 300-nit FHD IPS matte panels, covering 90% of the sRGB color gamut. While there is only one USB type-C (3.2 Gen 2) port, separate headphone and mic jacks, as well as a full-sized SD card reader, are included. The rear of the APEX M23 laptops showcases HDMI 2.1 and mini-DisplayPort 1.4a ports with G-SYNC support, along with a Gigabit Ethernet jack. It’s worth mentioning that these laptops lean towards the base-model range, employing predominantly plastic construction. However, it’s important to note that retail models of the APEX 15 and 17 will feature keyboards with a more standard ISO layout and ‘normal’ Enter keys.

Excitingly, the XMG APEX 17 and 15 laptops are expected to be available for pre-order soon, starting at a minimum of 16GB RAM. The APEX 17 will be priced at €1,299 ($1,383), while the APEX 15 will be priced at €1,399 ($1,489).
