- Currently tracked at its lowest recorded price in the past 30 days
Trade-offs to Consider
- ARM Mali-G52 2EE MC2 relies on shared system RAM; lacks discrete VRAM for demanding modern 3D games
- 8GB memory capacity may become restrictive under intensive multi-application workloads
- Modest 256GB SSD storage provides limited capacity for large files and games
* Near recent regular price (£186.75). Worth watching for discounts.
