If you’ve ever felt like lugging your laptop around is a workout in itself, Dynabook has heard your complaints. The new Portégé X30L-M business laptop weighs a featherlight 855 grams—yes, you read that right—making it lighter than a small bag of chips (note: not true!). Yet, don’t be fooled by its diet. It’s packed with enough power to fuel your workday with its Intel Core Ultra processors and Intel Arc Graphics, letting you run demanding applications without breaking a sweat.

Wrapped in a sleek magnesium alloy chassis, it doesn’t just look good; it’s sturdy too, having passed military-grade durability tests. The 13.3-inch display sports a 16:10 ratio, giving you extra screen real estate, perfect for juggling multiple tasks (or multiple excuses during Zoom meetings). Speaking of Zoom, the AI-powered webcam and noise-cancelling tech ensure that even your most distracted moments look professional.
Need help to stay on top of things? Microsoft Copilot has your back, helping with productivity in real time, while biometric security like facial recognition ensures your secrets stay safe. Toss in Wi-Fi 6E, Thunderbolt 4, and enough ports to make a tech lover swoon, and you’ve got yourself a fully loaded work companion.
Now for the best news. It is available to buy now and like its physical weight, it will not give your wallet the ache either. The Portégé X30L-M starts at just under US$1,399. One thing I don’t understand is why Dynabook had to brand itself as a business machine. Is IBM that fun to imitate?
