One of the benefits of sticking with a low TDP processor is that Chuwi can continue to offer a completely fanless device. Luckily the 3.5 mm jack seemed to function well. The speakers get reasonably loud, with around 80 dB(A) measured one inch over the trackpad, but there was little in the way of stereo separation and the speakers sound very poor. Most notebooks don’t offer much in the way of dynamic range on their incredibly small speakers, but the AeroBook offers almost no bass at all. The transfer rate is generally enough for most internet access, but if you want to copy files over the network, you’d likely be better off using USB. But the connection was as solid as expected, with zero dropouts or reboots required to establish a Wi-Fi connection, which tends to be the case with Intel wireless adapters. Luckily that wireless card is an Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165, and with Intel’s track record on network cards, at least some solace can be found in the connecting being rock solid.Īs expected, the performance of just a single 5 GHz AC stream is much lower than what you’d get in any 2x2 wireless offering, which is the standard for most notebooks.
We don’t often see a 1x1 solution anymore, but the AeroBook features just a single stream for Wi-Fi. One area where Chuwi clearly focused on their price target was the wireless.
