ive had this for a sec mostly just testing the format to see if i like it. Anyway!!!!!!!!!!! i love this silly little thing, silly little 12 inch laptop, relatively modern specs. way more performance than i actually need on the go. Anyway heres some specs:
- CPU: Intel Core i5-10310U
- GPU: Intel CometLake-U GT2 [UHD 620 Graphics]
- RAM: 8 GiB Soldered LPDDR3 2133 MHz
- Storage: 256 GiB DRAM-less Kioxia NVME (icantbefuckedtoopenthisthingrn)
aside from the specs, its nice in other ways too! like its in a nice, very rigid, all* magnesium alloy chassis. i say all* because its like 99% magnesium alloy, i dont think the screen bezel is but, the back cover definitel is since ive seen those dented before x3. it has a very pretty 1920 x 1200 IPS display, which, i mean, for only being 12 inches diagonally is more than high enough res :3. i havent really tested it in direct sun? but from the bit i have spent outside its definitely a little on the dimmer side, but well more than bright enough for indoors. especially at night i keep blowing up my retinas at a quarter brightness lmao.
now for ports!! the I/O on this little guy is awesome. heres a list of the I/O mine has but, some of them even came with cell modems or a blueray drive.

Left Side:
- 16 Volt DC Input Barrel Jack
- HDMI
- 1x Type A USB 3.1
- Thunderbolt 3 Front:
- Full Size SD Card Slot
- Microphone/Headphone Combo Jack
- DVD Multi Drive (HL-DT-ST GUD0N CD/DVD writer) Right Side:
- Kesington Lock Slot
- Full Size Gigabit Ethernet (I219-LM)
- VGA Output (my beloved)
- 2x Type A USB 3.1
so i mean safe to say this thing has a ton of I/O i love being able to plop this down next to a CRT monitor and just have it work. no goober dongle no wonky scaling no fuss just 0-0 ooo pretty.
and like all of that is before you even look at the thing. like, god i love the aesthetics :3 i love how it looks like this thing was designed 20 years ago. which actually! isnt too far off, apparently panasonic has been using this same chassis/chassis style forever now with their Let's Note line, only recently moving to something more modern.
its stuff like, how the keyboard is nearly at the edge of the body or the exra space given to the arrow keys, the row of 5 status LEDs on the front, or my favorite part the CIRCULAR TRACKPAD. which, after a tiny bit of configuration, you can use circular scrolling (thank you ArchWiki)
ill add some pictures later i think maybe idk :3
