The appeal is undeniable: a real Windows laptop that slips into a small bag is genuinely useful for anyone who spends their days moving between locations.
The Chuwi MiniBook X U300 addresses that by pairing the same compact, 360-degree convertible format with Intel’s U300 processor, a 13th-generation Raptor Lake chip with five cores and a dedicated performance core at its center.
Unlike earlier MiniBook X models that shipped with Windows 11 Home, the U300 version comes pre-installed with Windows 11 Pro.
The whole package measures 244mm x 166.4mm x 17.2mm and tapers to 11mm at its thinnest, all wrapped in an aerospace-grade aluminum alloy unibody shell.
The 28.88 Wh battery charges at up to 36 W via USB-C, and the full-layout keyboard completes a package priced at $469.
