Holds up well

Good little laptop
Hello,
Good material, very satisfied with the characteristics of the computer.
The product was received on time.
I had some questions about updating to Win 11 and the customer service was very responsive and pleasant.
Sincerely
There are 2 SSD m2 slots, 1 of which is free. The GPU temperature is 65°C, but the CPU temperature rises quickly to 90+. However with throttlestop you can quickly correct this. The PC is very sober and the design is pleasant. I recommend it.
