Versatile 2019 mid-format line of business laptops with thin bezel, glossy 15.6-inch FullHD IPS displays with good colour reproduction and excellent viewing angles. The manufacturer is positioned as products of the middle or upper price category. Suitable for solving any business-oriented and office tasks, they will be useful in scientific or engineering activities, and will help in the educational process.
Any of the models in the family can play the role of an entry-level mobile workstation or a multifunctional home PC. Xiaomi Mi Notebook Pro 15.6 laptops are dressed in elegant cases made of reinforced aluminium alloy, 15.9 mm thick and weighing 1.95 kg. An impressive level of peak single- and multi-threaded performance is provided by 4-core 8th generation Intel Core i5 / i7 processors (Kaby Lake Refresh, 14 nm), which work in conjunction with 8/16 GB DDR4 RAM (soldered on the board) and high-speed NVMe SSD storage from 256 GB to 1 TB.
Thanks to the high-performance discrete graphics card Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Max-Q, any of the models in the line shows a consistently high frame rate in all game projects of 2015-2020 at medium-high, high, and sometimes even maximum graphics settings. For comfortable work with text, an island keyboard with backlight is provided. Important pluses also include good battery life (up to 9 hours).
fresh hardware
The most “large-diagonal” representative of the Xiaomi ultrabook lineup is the Laptop Pro 15.6. Unlike Xiaomi 12 and 13-inch laptops, which use eighth, seventh and even sixth generation Intel Core processors, 15-inch laptops are built on the latest 8th Gen Kaby Lake Refresh chips. You can choose from Core i5-8250U and Core i7-8550U — both quad-core eight-threaded with a base frequency of 1.6 – 1.8 GHz and Turbo Boost up to 3.4 – 4 GHz.
Gaming ultrabook
The amount of RAM in Xiaomi Laptop Pro 15.6 can vary from 8 to 16 GB, but the capacity of the solid state drive is strictly 256 GB (plus an empty slot for a second M.2 SSD). The graphics card is also unified — GeForce MX150, which, although not officially considered a gaming one, "pulls" at medium settings for Witcher 3 and PUBG, not to mention simpler games.
Unobvious benefit
At first glance, the price of Xiaomi Laptop Pro 15.6 does not seem low if you look only at the hardware. But to a powerful processor and graphics card, you should add a thin all-metal case (from which, however, paint peels off in the corners over time), one and a half times more capacious than most “classmates” battery (60 versus 40 W / h) and an IPS screen with FullHD-resolution and protective glass Gorilla Glass (not touch). With all this in mind, Xiaomi turned out to be one of the most complete “fifteen” on the market for its money.
