BMAX Y11 laptop 2 in 1 touchscreen review
Dimensions & weight
Product weight: 1.0000 kg
Package weight: 1.9500 kg
Product size (L x W x H): 27.45 x 18.70 x 1.30 cm / 10.81 x 7.36 x 0.51 inches
Package size (L x W x H): 39.80 x 32.50 x 6.40 cm / 15.67 x 12.8 x 2.52 inches
With official dimensions of 274.5 x 187 x 13 mm and a weight of 1.15 kilograms it is necessary to make clear the great comforts that this product gives for those who need a portable device that is carried in the bag or backpack without occupying too much space or generate discomfort when transporting it.
Build
On the other hand, BMAX Y11 includes very good materials of manufacture with mixture of plastic and aluminium in some of its more important zones, at the same time that promises a long useful life for its axes after having passed a series of more than 25 thousand tests rotating its screen in 360º.
Panel & screen
The team in question has achieved a good relation between the size of its screen and the total surface in the front, that is to say that its bevels are kept contained so that its 11.6-inch IPS panel is the total protagonist. Its native resolution is 1920 x 1080 pixels, with angles of view of 178º both horizontally and vertically and multi-touch capability for proper operation as a tablet.
Ports & connectors
To complete the features of BMAX Y11, we can mention the presence of Wi-Fi connectivity 802.11b/g/n/ac dual band (2.4GHz/5.0GHz), as well as Bluetooth 4.0 to synchronize with accessories and external devices without cables in between. Meanwhile, the present ports include a micro-USB input, 3.5 mm headphone output, microSD slot, reversible USB-C input and micro-HDMI output to carry the screen to any TV or monitor.
Processor
Inside, the processor chosen is an eighth-generation Intel Gemini Lake N4100 consisting of Quad Core at a maximum frequency of 2.4 GHz and manufacturing in a process of 14 nanometers. It promises an improvement in performance of up to 30% compared to the previous version, but also not advised tasks or installation of software too demanding.
Battery
In addition, its 3500 mAh battery capacity allows you to forget about cables and use it for several hours outside the home since the battery life reaches up to five hours of continuous video playback as demonstrated by the tests performed on the device. To complete the features of the BMAX Y11 , we can mention the presence of Wi-Fi 802.11 b / g / n / ac dual-band (2.4GHz / 5.0GHz) connectivity, as well as Bluetooth 4.2 for synchronization with accessories and external devices without cables ; it also has a micro-USB input, 3.5mm headphone output, MicroSD slot, reversible USB-C input, and micro-HDMI output to carry the screen on any TV or monitor.
Storage
Finally, there is a total of 8 GB of RAM that is appreciated as well as its 256 GB of internal storage in SDD format that can be expanded without problems in the future. Also its 3500 mAh battery capacity allows you to forget about cables and use it for several hours outside the home, as the autonomy reaches up to five hours of continuous video playback.
BMAX Y11 laptop 2 in 1 touchscreen performance review
GPU Performance
Unsurprisingly, the synthetic benchmarks of the integrated Intel UHD Graphics 600 GPU paint the same picture as the processor benchmarks. Compared to other UHD Graphics 600, it comes in at the bottom of the scale. Faster Core models have a significant lead over our GPU. Only previous generations offer even less in terms of graphics performance. Under prolonged load, the GPU also throttles due to the passive cooling. The 3DMark Sky Diver stress test shows a 92.8% after 20 loops, which amounts to a deficit of 7.2% due to throttling for the UHD 600. This should not have a significant impact on gaming.
Gaming Performance
The iGPU of the Celeron N4100 and N4120 is only suitable for very undemanding and old games. In our test, we were able to run titles such as Trackmania Nations Forever (now free2play) and Hearthstone. While Counter-Strike: GO ran smoothly in our benchmark, many internet games and other maps cause severe stuttering.
BMAX Y11 laptop 2 in 1 touchscreen review customer review
Impressive specs for the price
For my job I do IT and I deal with computers every day. So while I know this obviously is not the best computer in the world, I must say that for the price, the specs are rather impressive. This is a relatively inexpensive computer but it actually does perform quite well. Overall if you are looking for something small and portable or if you are interested is something that works like a tablet, this is a good option.
The trackpad has multifinger gestures and the keyboard has a nice feel despite being so small. The touch screen is responsive while working in tablet mode. This has micro usb and hdmi ports which I wish they would have swapped out for an additional USB-C port but as it is, with the single USB-C port you can do passthrough power and use a USB-C hub for everything (note; I definitely recommend getting a USB-C hub if you decide to get this computer). When I use this, I have power, external monitor (HDMI), and a mouse plugged into the USB-C hub and it really is a nice setup with all that.
This works with basic 3D games but nothing too resource intensive. It will work OK for basic games but this is not a gaming computer and won’t do well with most modern games. This is a good multimedia or basic browsing computer.
