Xiaomi launched the
Mi Notebook Air last July, and the manufacturer is rolling out a refresh for 2017 with updated processors and new hardware additions. Xiaomi is offering two variants of the 13.3-inch Mi Notebook Air — a high-end version with a seventh-gen Kaby Lake Core
i7-7500U processor clocked at 3.5GHz, and a model with a 3.1GHz Core i5-7200U CPU. That translates to a 10% increase in performance.
The Mi Notebook Air now features a fingerprint sensor that's located at the top right corner of the trackpad, which according to Xiaomi lets you unlock the
laptop in two seconds. The 13.3-inch variants offer 8GB of DDR4 RAM clocked at 2133MHz, and you can choose from either 128GB or 256GB of NVMe
SSD storage. Xiaomi is also offering discrete graphics in the form of an
NVIDIA GeForce MX150 graphics card with 2GB of GDDR5 memory.
