Let’s take a look at a brand you may not be familiar with. We were impressed with the Chuwi CoreBook XPro, and it could be a good choice for your next laptop, as long as you understand its position in the market. Chuwi is a Shenzhen-based manufacturer that started out making MP3 and MP4 playback products in 2004. Today, they make laptops, small PCs, and Android tablets. Recently, the company contacted me to review their CoreBook XPro laptop, so I took it for a test drive. A quick note: the company has a video showing off its production facilities. The marketing copy is a bit crude, but the visual tour of their facilities is fascinating.
The machine I received was equipped with a Coffee Lake Intel i5-8259U, which runs at 2.3GHz and can go up to 3.8Ghz. It has a 15.6-inch IPS display with an Intel Iris Plus Graphics 655 GPU, 8GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage, which sits on an NVMe flash module.
The machine ships with Windows 10 Home pre-installed. Since I’m using Windows 11 here, I immediately upgraded it to Windows 11 Home. The upgrade took a few hours, but went smoothly.
I found the build quality to be solid enough. The casing is wrapped in aluminum alloy, but there are quite a few plastic parts and accessories. If you’re careful with it (like you would with a laptop), it should hold up well. If you toss it around like the gorilla in the old luggage commercial, your mileage will definitely vary.
The 15.6-inch IPS screen is a highlight of the XPro. The bezels are only 6mm thick, allowing the display to fill nearly all of the available space. With a 16:9 aspect ratio, the display is great for movies and videos. The display resolution is only 1920×1080 (1080p), but the display quality is excellent. Coupled with the surprisingly clear and powerful dual speakers, movie playback is a treat. The screen is also quite pleasant for traditional office work. It’s clear and easy to read, and I used it for hours at a time without any eye fatigue.Chuwi CoreBook XPro BatteryLife and KeyboardThe battery life is OK. With the screen brightness turned down a bit, I was able to get through a two-hour movie, but just barely. Honestly, if you want to watch a movie, you’re better off plugging in. The charger for this machine is nice and small, so it’s not a hardship to carry the power brick when traveling. The battery is not removable or replaceable.
When doing normal productive work, such as when writing this article, I found that I could get about four hours of use out of the Chuwi CoreBook XPro battery alone. My work pattern is that I tend to combine some video with web and writing.
