Second, the hardware configuration and performance

In terms of hardware, ASUS Lingao 360 equipped with Intel ® Core ™ i7-8550U processor, 16GB of memory, 512GB SATA3 SSD. Overall, the hardware configuration is excellent, is the mainstream of thin and light business products.

● processor

ASUS Lingyao 360 equipped with the processor for the Intel® Core ™ i7-8550U (clocked at: 1.80GHz, Turbo: 4.00GHz, cache: 8MB), quad-core eight threads, TDP 15W.This processor is Intel The latest eight generations of core processors, compared with the previous generation, the performance improvement is very significant.

CPU-Z

Although the i7-8550U is a low-voltage processor, but the performance of the performance test is excellent, compared with the standard pressure processor did not fall through the processor test software CINBENCH R15 test results can be seen that this Processor single core score 169cb, multi-core score 615cb, this result even more than the standard i5-7300HQ (148cb / 513cb) processor.

CINEBENCH R15

● hard disk

Hard drive, this notebook is equipped with a 512GB SATA3 SSD, we tested by AS SSD Benchmark this hard disk testing software related tests.

The test results, the hard drive sustained read speed of 511.43MB / s, sustained write speed of 459.79MB / s, and the performance of the general SATA3 SSD roughly the same, however, taking into account the price and market positioning Spirit 360 , Useless with PCIe SSD how much or some regret.

● Comprehensive performance

Comprehensive performance, we will test the overall performance of the product through the latest PCMark 10. PCMark 10 is the latest comprehensive set of PC test benchmarks to support Windows 10, you can test the system performance by simulating various daily behavior, the main test content Divided into three parts, namely Essentials, Productivity and Digital Content Creation.

As you can see from the test results, ASUS Lingyao 360 benchmark score of 3721 points, of which 7802 points common basic functions (application start points, video conferencing scores, web browsing scores), productivity of 6484 points (spreadsheet scores , Write scores), digital content produced 2764 points (photo editing scores, rendering and visualization scores, video editing.) This result is much higher than the average seven generations of the core of the light, to meet the daily business office apparently without any problems, to complete some complex Needless to say the task.

Third, the cooling performance and battery life

● Cooling

For light notebooks, thermal performance largely determines the performance of these products, in order to have a clearer understanding of the thermal performance of the Shine 360, we conducted a full load test of this notebook, and The results of the analysis, the initial test conditions are as follows:

Test Tools: AIDA64, FurMark, Room Temperature: 25 ° C, CPU Load: 100%, Test Time:> 50 minutes

AIDA64 is a tool for testing hardware and software system information, and we will test the thermal performance of the product through AIDA64's System Stability Test. Under high load conditions, AIDA64 can provide real-time updated voltage and temperature To monitor the thermal performance of the product.While FurMark is an OpenGL benchmarking tool to measure the performance of the graphics card through the fur rendering algorithm, but also to test the stability of the graphics card.We will use these two software on the machine for double Roasted test.

The test prototype continued to run for 54 minutes and 51 seconds while the CPU was fully loaded.

The image generated from the thermometer can also be seen at room temperature around 25 ℃ conditions, the high temperature is concentrated in the left side of the keyboard (near the vents), the maximum temperature of 44.1 ℃. The actual use of the process will feel A certain temperature, but does not affect the normal use.

C surface temperature distribution

Fusela D surface temperature is also concentrated in the vicinity of the vents, the maximum temperature reached 43.4 ℃, consider this product uses a very thin body design, the overall performance of the cooling is acceptable.At the same time, in the actual use of the process, Long-term use of high-load is relatively rare, so the test results will not reach the temperature.

● Life

In addition, the product's battery life is also an important part of the evaluation of light and thin, so we tested the battery life in PCMark 8's Home mode.

During the testing process, the software runs the test program in a loop until the battery runs out, giving a relatively real life score, but keep in mind that PCmark 8 runs all the tests under high load conditions Project, the result is also under the cycle of high load conditions.And in our daily use, long time high load is not common, so the actual use of time is much higher than the following life test results.

As you can see from the test results, the ASUS Lingyao 360's PCMark 8 battery life was 3 hours and 17 minutes.Compared with other products, you can see that the glory of Life 360 ​​and market mainstream products at the same level .

Fourth, design highlights

● ErgoLift shaft

Slim body on the shaft put forward higher requirements, ASUS Lingyao 360 ErgoLift shaft with sophisticated design of the multi-gear metal device, with smooth and dynamic dynamic steering, at all angles can provide adequate support for the screen. Especially with the display flipped over 135 °, the keyboard will rise and tilt to provide a more comfortable typing position for the user while the ErgoLift shaft is sturdy and durable for over 20000 rigorous opening and closing tests.

● a variety of work patterns

Benefit from the characteristics of flip the ASUS Ling Yao 360 has a variety of work patterns can be changed from the standard notebook mode to tablet mode, the user can freely transform according to their needs, which in some business travel, meetings and other occasions more applicable.

A variety of work patterns

● Full HD touch screen

We mentioned in the above content, ASUS Lingyao 360 uses a full HD touch screen display, after the test school colorimeter can also see the screen sRGB color gamut reached 96%, NTSC reached 67%, AdobeRGB reached 73%, the overall display is still good.

Fifth, PConline evaluation room summary

● product information and test results

● written at the end

Overall, the ASUS Lingyao 360 can be said that nowadays one of the best Windows 10 light and thin, a collection of the mainstream ultra-pole design of the technology and the trend factor in the design, the Spirit 360 uses a more solid Aluminum alloy, continuation of Asus traditional concentric Hairline design, the ultimate thin body and rigorous production technology, so that this product stands out from the many thin and light in the hardware configuration, Asus Ling Yao 360 equipped with Intel's latest eight generations of Core i7-8550U processor, powerful and efficient performance to meet the needs of the daily work.

Lightweight and portable body, lasting life, as well as flip the diversity of work modes, but also to provide a more extensive use of Spirit 360 has the use of the scene, the need for mobile users is a good choice.

Asus Ling Yao 360

However, ASUS Lingyao 360 as a high-end products, there are also some deficiencies, such as body coating (easy fingerprints), SATA3 SSD, 1920 × 1080 resolution screen and other parts, there is a big Space for improvement.Although some of the requirements may be slightly harsh, but taking into account the product positioning and price of Spirit 360, this product can actually do better.

It is undeniable that in all products are playing 'thin' label today, in the 'thin' notebook PC market overflowing, ASUS Lingyao 360 this product is clearly a better interpretation of the 'thin' term. With this, ASUS Lingyao 360 will be enough to make people 'shine'.
