FULL STORY
======================================================================Dynabook
 X8/Y and X6/Y powered by Intel Core processors Features self-replaceable 
battery system, extending battery lifespan Lightweight, durable design with 
MIL-SPEC standards; 26-hour battery life 

Dynabook has introduced two new models to its premium laptop lineup , both 
powered by Intels 13th-generation Core P processors. 

The X8/Y is equipped with the Intel Core i7-1360P, while the X6/Y features 
the Intel Core i5-1340P. 

Weighing approximately 937 grams, the laptops are designed for portability 
while also meeting MIL-SPEC standards, featuring a magnesium alloy body. 
JEITA 3.0 testing estimates battery life at up to 26 hours, and there's the 
option for users to swap in a new battery when performance declines. 
Microsoft productivity software included 

Both laptops offer a self-replaceable battery system, allowing users to 
change the battery as needed. Battery performance naturally drops over time, 
especially with extensive use and frequent charging, so Dynabook has designed 
an easy-to-replace battery setup that involves removing two screws on the 
battery cover and inserting the replacement. 

Dynabook aims to minimize the need for battery replacements, as the X-series 
laptops are configured to "Auto mode" by default. This mode adjusts charging 
between "100% charge mode" and "80% charge mode" based on usage patterns to 
preserve battery life, especially when the device is frequently plugged in. 

The X8/Y and X6/Y both come with 16GB LPDDR5 memory and a 512GB PCIe SSD. 
They feature a 13.3-inch LCD display with a resolution of 1920x1080, and the 
screen can open to a full 180 degrees. 

The Dynabook X series includes productivity tools such as PC Transfer 
Navigator 2 for data migration, Dynabook Smartphone Connection, and Dynabook 
Color Adjustment Utility for display customization. 

Additional features like AI noise cancellation and a one-touch microphone 
mute support online meetings, and Microsoft Office Home & Business 2024 is 
included with both models. A one-year Microsoft 365 Basic subscription is 
also provided, offering 100GB of OneDrive storage and ad-free Outlook mail. 

Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, gigabit Ethernet, USB 
Type-A, Thunderbolt 4 USB-C, HDMI, a microSD slot, and fingerprint 
recognition. 

Available in Dark Tech Blue and Dark Tech Silver, the X8/Y is expected to 
retail in the mid-270,000 yen range (around $1,800), while the X6/Y will set 
you back around 250,000 yen (approximately $1,650). You might also like These
