If you’re looking for a laptop with a price range of around IDR 4.3 million, the Axioo Hype 3 can be an interesting choice. Unlike some other cheap laptops, the Axioo Hype 3 is equipped with an Intel Core i3 processor that provides more powerful performance. RAM capacity reaches 8 GB and can be upgraded according to user needs. In addition, this laptop is equipped with a PCIe SSD that provides high data access speed, and still has an empty slot for an additional second SSD.
The Axioo Hype 3’s display uses IPS technology with Full HD resolution, resulting in a much better display quality than HD or TN displays. Another advantage lies in its compact and attractive design. The body of the laptop is made of dark gray polycarbonate, giving it a low profile and minimalist feel. Even so, the packaging box design features a colorful Street Art motif that contrasts with the laptop’s design.
In terms of performance, the Axioo Hype 3 is powered by an Intel Core i3 1005G1 processor with Ice Lake technology and 10 NM fabrication. Although it is a 10th Generation Core, it is different from Comet Lake which uses 14 NM fabrication. In addition, this laptop is equipped with Intel UHD Graphics with 32 Execution Units, supporting Intel Quick Sync technology for faster video export performance.
The RAM capacity of 8 GB DDR4 3200 MHz Single Channel is expandable up to 32 GB. Regarding storage, the Axioo Hype 3 is equipped with a 256 GB M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen 3 x4 SSD. Interestingly, there is a second M.2 slot that allows additional storage without disturbing the main SSD, although the second slot only supports M.2 SATA SSDs.
The laptop also offers a 1080P @30 FPS resolution camera that comes with a Privacy Camera Shutter to protect user privacy. The sound from the speakers is adequate for its price class. Although not too loud, the sound quality is still quite good.
In terms of connectivity, the Axioo Hype 3 is equipped with various ports including USB 3.0, HDMI, USB-C, and a MicroSD Card Reader slot. The laptop’s keyboard and touchpad are designed with a comfortable and optimized layout for everyday use.
However, for professional-level content creation that requires high color accuracy, a display with a Gamut Coverage level of about 61.3% sRGB may not be ideal. That said, it is still suitable for studying, simple editing, and watching videos.
With a total weight of 1.68 kilograms (including charger), the Axioo Hype 3 is a lightweight and portable laptop. The 45.6 Whr battery capacity also offers enough endurance for daily use.
Overall, the Axioo Hype 3 is an attractive option for those looking for an affordable laptop with capable performance. With a combination of Intel Core i3 processor, expandable RAM, and PCIe SSD, this laptop is ready to fulfill various daily computing needs.
