Dynabook Intros New Ultraportable Laptops with Intel Core Ultra in Japan

Dynabook plans to roll out three new lightweight laptop models (G8, G6 and GS series) in Japan at the end of October. Each model weighs just 849 g featuring Intel Core Ultra processors and comes in Nebula Black and Celeste Blue color variants. The top-of-the-line G8 series comes with Core Ultra 7 or Ultra 5 processors, 16 GB of memory, and a 512 GB solid-state drive. It features a 13.3-inch WUXGA (16:10) display with a matte finish and wide viewing angles. For security, it offers face recognition and a TPM chip. The G6 model is powered by Core Ultra 5 CPUs, while keeping the same 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. It shares the same 13.3-inch display as its bigger sibling. Security-wise, it matches the G8, including face recognition.

The budget-friendly GS series runs on Core Ultra 5 with 16 GB of RAM but trims storage to a 256 GB SSD. It swaps out face recognition for a fingerprint reader while keeping the same screen and weight. All three models offer similar battery life: 11 hours of video watching and up to 28 hours on standby. They come equipped with two Thunderbolt 4 ports, three USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, HDMI, LAN, and microSD card slots. Standard features across the series include Wi-Fi 6E Bluetooth 5.3, and a 2 MP webcam with a privacy cover. They come bundled with Microsoft 365 Basic and Office Home & Business 2024. Prices are still unknown, as is availability on markets outside Japan.
