This 2-Pound Laptop Has Super Powers...

This is exciting. I've got a different brand laptop on the table. It's not just about Lenovo

This one's from Japan. It's the Fujitsu PC Lifebook. This is a direct ThinkPad competitor in the crazy thin, crazy light, durable, day-to-day laptop

They think they could challenge my love of the ThinkPad series, and they might be right

The brand has a storied history in the land of gadgets. Ooh, it's red. That's kind of cool

13.3 inch FHD touchscreen anti-glare. It's got a Core i5 8265U processor

Oh, it's also got an LTE module so you can always be connected

It's got something called Palm Secure. Now, I watched a video about this before this thing arrived

You can actually unlock it with the palm of your hand, which is kind of cool. How about that as well, Jack

Country of origin, Japan. Very rare in this day and age. So, hang on a second, that's a 13.3 inch laptop with a proper Intel processor coming in at

2 pounds. Now, I thought the X1 Carbon was ridiculously light at 2.5 pounds

Now we're talking 2 pounds? I'm going to have to look at the keyboard

The keyboard is going to have to be good if I'm going to be convinced to switch out my laptop

What? That's the laptop! What? Tiny. And light. Come on! That is ridiculous

That's the palm secure in order to unlock it. Would it be easier to steal someone's fingerprint

than their palm? Well, you could chop a finger off instead of a hand

Okay, you know what else is weird? There's a camera right here facing straight up

See this? What am I, do I, in case I want to do this

Have either of you guys determined what this up facing camera is by the display Hold on guys this thing flips all the way over as well I did not even

So it's a convertible also at two pounds. Do you flip around and you're snapping full

I doubt it. It's light looks like one power brick. This to me looks like a travel adapter

but then there's also a beefier one. You kind of leave this one at home

and then when you're on the go you take the little guy. Wow

They're just gonna give you a Thunderbolt 3 cable because why not

A pen! There's also pen input. It's a fairly slender little pen there

with some extra tips as well. Oh! And it looks like it fits into the unit also

It's a docking station! You're gonna have a single cable connection which is then gonna give you all these

extra desktop style ports the VGA port an HDMI port display port wired ethernet

connection to USB type A ports USB type C port audio L port powered USB type C

connector they thought about all of it so it starts at 1600 bucks that's it's

not crazy it goes right here at the front that's a good spot for it that's it

it's right in there right over here you can see that's your sim card tray by the

looks of it it's got an sd card reader it's got a usb type a there is a breakout style connector for

the wired internet connection what even is this port right now oh my god this is incredible they

have found a way to fit a wired ethernet jack in here that does this watch this

you use it when you need it you put it away when you don't it's incredible type c thunderbolt 3

connector also capable of powering the laptop as you can see indicated from this battery icon right here

another Thunderbolt 3 connection full HDMI USB type A and a headphone jack that versatility in a package that two pounds the keyboards got to be there else what are we doing the Okay

How is this deck not flexing more with something that feels this light you gotta love these magnesium materials

This laptop is like the opposite of how Apple approaches things Apple's like

bare minimum just give you what you need this product is like

give you everything you might ever need. First thing I noticed, the screen is a bit unusual because it's got this anti-glare

If you were to write on the screen, it seems like this offers some degree of protection

alongside the anti-glare attributes. This works like any other pen on a tablet style

You can also get this tent mode going on so you can save a little space in front

Now the face unlock actually works really well. I will, let's see if we can demo it here

Okay, so it looks for the face, the blue light, and boom, it unlocks

But they went a step further, man. There is this app that goes with this device

that takes security to a crazy next level. The security device is palm secure fingerprint

face recognition, presence sensor, passwords, and smart card RFID. There's a smart card slot over here on the left

So you could have, you could make it necessary to have multiple forms in order to get inside of the computer

Now, most of these are recognizable to me, but the palm secure is not something that I've used before

The way it works is that this scanner over here will read your palm, the veins in your palm, at a distance

So you don't actually even touch it in order to unlock. Now, it's a bit strange, you gotta line it up perfectly, but anyhow, I did register it, so I'm gonna log out real quick and show you how that works

Okay, palm secure hand vein recognition. So you just go, hold your palm, it will tell you if you're too low, too high

or if you have to move forward a little bit. And once you line it up, it just logs you in

Now, I don't know, do you get better at knowing where to place your hand over time Maybe I mean it looking at veins in your hands So you gotta be really concerned about what on here in order to go to that level i do it one more time maybe i line it up even

better let's see here oh i did get it better that time it was a bit faster the main takeaway is that

it's crazy light and it's got an enormous versatility import option display wise i'm

gonna say you know it's it's obviously a step back from the stuff that i've been looking at

on the latest X1 Carbon laptops, but yes, you get the pen input

and maybe most importantly for this particular laptop, you get the spin around factor

You get the tablet mode, the keyboard here, I'm okay with it

It's not ThinkPad level. There's a camera up here. At first, I'm like, what is that for

It turns out it's just a camera. It's just an improved camera from the webcam

Now, the webcam is 1080p. This over here is five megapixels, and the idea there is that just like on a phone

you have a rear-facing camera, So if I had to be in the corporate world snapping photos of the... I don't know, the new boardroom

The speakers I actually haven't tested yet, so let's go ahead and do that real quick

Okay, so the speakers are firing out the sides on the right or left. That's maxed out. It is not great speakers. The speakers might even be a step back from the previous generation X1 Carbon to be honest

The thing about this device, I feel like it's productivity first. It's functionality first

and then everything else second, right? Form, design, materials. It's like, let's pack as much functionality

into two pounds as we can. Now for me, I don't know if this could displace

my X1 Carbon on the day-to-day. But if I was on the go a little bit more

all of a sudden I'm counting pounds. And I'm like, huh, this is kind of like

the ultimate on the road executive. Maybe you're in sales. It's two pounds

You don't even notice you're carrying it. It honestly doesn't even feel real

It's kinda cool, I'm happy to look at it. Japan is back
