MWC 2023 has just ended in Barcelona, where thousands of technology companies gathered for four days to show off the latest developments in wearable devices. One such participant is TECNO, a technology company that strives to merge “technical value” with “aesthetic value”. In 2014, TECNO released their series of CAMON camera phones, the success of which led TECNO to further expand its AIoT to smart audio devices, smart home devices and wearable devices. However, by 2022, TECNO was ready to make the move into the laptop space and released the MEGABOOK T1.
However, the MEGABOOK T1 was just the beginning of a series of laptops planned by TECNO, and the natural next step was the unveiling of the latest flagship device at MWC 2023. The MEGABOOK S1 2023 will feature an Intel Core i7-1360P with 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM, a significant improvement over the previously released T1.
This announcement is a major step forward for the MEGABOOK series as the previously released T1 featured 12th Gen Intel CPUs and was available in Central & Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia and Asia.
Senior VP/Chairman of INTEL China, Wang Rui, visited TECNO at MWC 2023 and met Ha Le, the Vice President of Transsion Holdings, another milestone in the cooperation between TECNO and Intel. Both parties were excited to continue working together to create products loved by consumers around the world. Wang Rui and Ha Le both expressed their enthusiasm for the future of the partnership and agreed to jointly consider product performance, user experience and solutions in the future, with the aim of creating better experiences and meeting customer needs. They are both confident that this partnership will continue to deliver exciting new developments in the technology industry.
Creative productive
Paired with the Intel Core i7-1360P and 16GB LPDDR5 RAM, the MEGABOOK S1 2023 is a productivity powerhouse packed into an impressively thin 13.5mm magnesium alloy chassis that weighs just 1.35kg. However, the laptop does not lack function for the sake of form as it manages to pack a USB 4.0 port capable of data transfer rates of up to 40 Gbps alongside HDMI 2.0, USB 3.0 and 3.5mm headphone ports. Digital artists and other creators who use graphical pen displays but want to keep their cable management under control will be excited to discover that a fully functional USB-C port is also included.
When the day is over, there’s plenty of room to store your files on the MEGABOOK S1’s internal 1 TB SSD storage. But finishing your work doesn’t mean the work of the MEGABOOK is done. The deceptively slim laptop features a 120Hz refresh rate at 2.3k resolution on a 16:10 bezel-less display, resulting in a 90% screen-to-body ratio. Whether you prefer to watch videos in portrait or landscape mode, there’s plenty of room on this screen to view it all, making the MEGABOOK S1 2023 as suitable for entertainment as it is for productivity.
Made for multitasking
If you’re the kind of multitasker who uses multiple screens and you’ve already dived into the TECNO ecosystem, you’ll find the MEGABOOK S1s A jump function very useful. OneLeap uses over-the-air connectivity to allow the user to multitask by casting up to three screens to their laptop at a time. The devices can sync data and share clipboards, file management systems, and even reverse network sharing. With OneLeap, the devices can easily be linked together by being close to each other, while the SwiftTransfer feature provides the user with fast and efficient file transfers through gesture support.
Powerful yet portable
There is often some give and take when it comes to devices designed for both performance and productivity. Laptops intended for professional creative use should use the latest technology, but recent generations of processors can generate a large amount of heat. TECNO compensates for this in the MEGABOOK S1 by adding a dual fan system with their own ICE STORM cooling system. This allows the laptop to make the most of what the 13th generation Intel processor can do while maintaining a slim and visually appealing profile.
In addition to looking good, the MEGABOOK S1’s slim profile and light weight make it portable enough to throw in your bag and have at your fingertips at a moment’s notice.
