Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air 12 (2017)

The second generation of the Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air 12 is just a refresh, the Skylake Core M3-6Y30 is gone, replaced with either the more powerful Core i5-7Y54 (3.2Ghz max) and 8GB of DDR3 1866Mhz RAM or the Core M3-7Y30. The build is exactly the same. All alloy, glass covered 1080p IPS screen and 1 USB 3.1 Type-C Gen2 port, USB 3.0, 3.5mm and HDMI out. The AKG tuned dual speakers remain and the touchpad is still a Synaptics one. The Battery is a 37Wh one good for around 7 hours+ depending on use and screen brightness. Overall the Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air 12 like the 13.3" model is a premium laptop, one of the best you'll find for the price.
