Yes, products from the Chinese brand Chuwi are often associated with inexpensive robot vacuum cleaners or budget tablets. But here is an ultra-slim laptop with an interesting price tag. The CHUWI HeroBook Air with an 11.6-inch display is priced at only 160 Euros. Moreover, it features very interesting electronic components. Perfect for browsing the Internet, studying, and multimedia use.
CHUWI HeroBook Air – advantages and disadvantages
The main advantage is the low price. Even on the secondary market, a laptop with similar performance will be 50-100% more expensive. Here, the buyer gets:
- Compact size and light weight.
- There is a version with a touchscreen (+10 Euros to the price).
- 12 hours of continuous operation on a single battery charge.
- Powerful platform for Internet browsing and studying (Celeron N4020, 4 GB RAM, and 128 GB SSD storage).
- Support for 4K output via HDMI (4096×2160@60Hz).
The low cost of the CHUWI HeroBook Air is provided by a second-rate display. The TN matrix with HD Ready resolution (1366×768) spoils the overall picture. However, it is reassuring that on the 11.6-inch screen, the dots are less noticeable than on 14 and 15-inch laptops.
The Celeron N4020 processor is built on 14 nm technology. But it supports DDR4 memory. With a frequency of 2.8 GHz and a 4 MB cache, high efficiency should not be expected, but the power consumption in “Turbo” mode is only 6 Watts.
The integrated graphics accelerator UHD Graphics 600 does not support modern gaming. Even at minimal settings. But the manufacturer immediately outlined their priorities. The CHUWI HeroBook Air is a tool for educational institutions and Internet surfing. For 160 Euros, there are simply no analogs. Not even on the secondary market. You can buy this gadget for a child. If it breaks, it won’t be a pity to throw it away.
