An ultrabook was released in mid-October 737 under the name "YEPO 2016S" that has tablet-like properties and is strongly reminiscent of the design of the Macbook Air. Although the manufacturer "YEPO" is still largely unknown in the area of Chinese technology, the YEPO 200S laptop is definitely convincing considering the price of less than €737 and the features it offers. In this article we took a closer look at the Ultrabook.
YEPO 737S Laptop
Processor and memory
Even with the hardware used, it is noticeable that the manufacturer mainly uses tablet components and has created a compact laptop from them. An Intel Cherry Trail Z8300, which is also used in numerous China tablets, is used as the processor. The clock rate of the quad-core processor is between 1.44 and 1.84 GHz. With an additional 4GB of RAM, a smooth Windows 10 experience is guaranteed. However, this processor is less suitable for games, which is why the YEPO laptop is more aimed at office users. Due to the generous 128GB eMMC memory, you will hardly have to rely on additional memory expansion, but the YEPO 737S has a memory expansion option using an SD memory card. The laptop does not have a drive. Alternatively, you can connect an external drive via one of the USB 2.0 ports.
Screen and camera
The screen has a diagonal of 13.3 inches and has a resolution of Full HD (1920x1080p). The picture format is 16: 9. IPS (In-Plane Switching) is used as the display technology. It is also interesting that the display reacts to touch inputs and the laptop can therefore be operated like a tablet. A 0.3 megapixel camera is located above the display. This is sufficient for video calls and spontaneous selfies.
Connectivity, keyboard and battery
The connection options amount to two USB 2.0 ports, a mini HDMI socket and a headphone input. A WiFi module is integrated and supports the 802.11b / g / n standards. Files can be transferred and synchronized using fast Bluetooth 4.0. The keyboard of the laptop comes in the English-language layout. There is no backlight. Below the keyboard is a touch control panel that is used for mouse control and also recognizes various gestures. The capacity of the battery is a whopping 8.000mAh with which a runtime of 8 hours can be achieved. The YEPO 737S laptop can be charged via a 5V DC power supply.
