As a local laptop manufacturer, Axioo is aggressive in releasing the latest products. Moreover, the price offered is also tempting, but equipped with fairly decent specifications. One of the highlights is the Axioo MyBook 14F.
This laptop comes with a compact design, thanks to the 13-inch wide screen it carries. You could say this size is the most ideal to carry everywhere. Coupled with its light weight.
But that's not the main advantage of the Axioo MyBook 14F. The appeal of this laptop is on the screen that is used. The screen resolution is not only FHD, but 2.5K. In its class, this laptop may be the only one that offers this luxury feature.
To find out the impression of using it, we did a review on this laptop. Here's the review;
Design
Axioo MyBook 14F offers a design that is not adventurous. You could say it looks moderate or looks more like a laptop for business people. However, thanks to its compact screen size, this laptop practically has dimensions that are comfortable to carry around. Moreover, it is also light in weight.
But when compared to other Axioo MyBook series, this laptop tends to be thicker. Even so, users don't need to bother carrying a special laptop bag for this device. Just use the sleeve, the Axioo MyBook 14F just puts it in a sling bag or backpack.
The size of this laptop charger is also small, like a smartphone charger. Unfortunately the length of the charger cable is a bit too long, so users have to be really close to the power outlet when charging.
Regarding ergonomics, the Axioo MyBook 14F offers a keyboard with good comfort. The shape of the keypad is not made close together, which minimizes the possibility of typos or typos. As a result, typing activities become more comfortable to do, especially for those who like fast typing.
The flexibility is also present in the touchpad. The surface is broad, even too broad. It is very convenient to move the cursor on the screen. But on the other hand, this advantage actually cuts comfort in the palm rest which tends to be small.
On the screen, the Axioo MyBook 14F actually has bezels that look quite thin. Unfortunately, the selection of bezel colors that match the body even gives the impression of old-fashion on this laptop. If the bezels were whitewashed in black it might be better, because it can give the impression of blending with the screen.
Brilliant screen
Admittedly, the advantages of the Axioo MyBook 14F are on the screen. With a size of 13 inches, the resolution offered is fairly high. This laptop screen has a resolution of 2,560 x 1,600 pixels. This advantage really makes it very attractive.
Practically, the Axioo MyBook 14F is very convenient for enjoying multimedia. Fans of movies or series must be very spoiled by the 2.5K resolution screen that this laptop has. Moreover, the color display on the screen also looks bright and sharp. It looks like Axioo is not messing with the quality of this MyBook 14F screen.
As for work, the high resolution allows a wider screen display. For example, the sheet display in the Excel application will look wider without the user having to scroll often.
Performance and specifications
Talking about performance, the specifications carried by the Axioo MyBook 14F are relatively sufficient for light purposes. This device is entrusted to the Intel N4020 processor which is a series from Celeron. In the variant that we reviewed, the processor is combined with the use of 4 GB of RAM.
As a storage medium, the Axioo MyBook 14F variant is equipped with a 128 GB SSD. The use of an SSD has also succeeded in boosting the performance of this laptop. Meanwhile, if the storage capacity provided is deemed insufficient, this laptop provides access at the bottom for users who want to replace it with an SSD with a larger capacity.
With this combination, the performance of this laptop is indeed more intended for light to medium work. This laptop feels very comfortable to use for everyday work which is identical to productivity applications.
The features offered also support daily computing loads, including a 2 MP webcam, two USB 3.0 slots and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Then there is also an HDMI port for displaying to a larger screen, such as an LED TV or projector for making presentations.
Conclusion
When referring to the specifications above, the Axioo MyBook 14F variant that we reviewed can be said to have a responsible performance. But for daily activities, the performance of this laptop is very good. Axioo MyBook 14F is also available with higher specifications for those who want faster performance.
So the Axioo MyBook 14F with 4 GB RAM and 128 GB SSD that we have in hand is actually the lowest variant. There are other variants that are equipped with 6GB and 8GB of RAM, with a choice of 256GB and 512GB SSDs. The use of larger RAM certainly promises smoother performance.
But apart from the performance that is quite comfortable, the advantages of the Axioo MyBook 14F are difficult to find an opponent. With a resolution of 2,560 x 1,600 pixels, this laptop screen display is indeed a feast for the eyes. Plus the color quality is also sharp like expensive laptops. Enjoying streaming movies or series also feels good.
Its compact design is also a distinct advantage, because it makes the Axioo MyBook 14F comfortable to carry anywhere without a special laptop bag. Just tuck it in a sling bag. Unfortunately, the use of the gray color on the unit we received made it look monotonous like a business laptop. Maybe the choice of red or blue will look more elegant.
The Axioo MyBook 14F is actually available in four color options, namely Scarlet, Indigo, Cosmic, and Oak. While the choice of variants are as follows:
RAM 4, SSD 128GB
RAM 4, SSD 256GB
RAM 6, SSD 256GB
RAM 8, SSD 256GB
RAM 8, SSD 512GB
