Starmobile launches its second laptop in conjunction with Lazada Philippines’ Grand Christmas Sale, the Starmobile Engage Aura.

It’s a Windows 10 laptop with a 14 inch screen, quad core processor from Intel, 2GB of RAM and claims 7 hours of battery life. The company says it’s perfect for students and professionals on a budget.

The Starmobile Engage Aura runs on the Intel Atom x5-Z8350 processor running at 1.44GHz and a burst speed of up to 1.92GHz. It’s a power efficient chip sufficient for web browsing, office tasks and casual games.

Its relatively big screen is definitely a selling point. Above it is a 2 Megapixel web cam for video conferencing.

 

Storage & Connectivity

It has Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for wireless connectivity. It also has a mini HDMI port for connecting the device to a TV or projector as well as a 3.5mm audio jack.
