Thanks to the built-in Microsoft Pluton security processor, enabled by default, this PC can provide added protection to defend against sophisticated attacks, while the fingerprint reader supporting Windows Hello allows for biometric authentication. Windows 11 also delivers security through Microsoft Defender SmartScreen and Smart App Control. AMD Ryzen AI on models with select processors ushers in new experiences such as real-time video quality enhancements for video calls, which will pop with true-to-life colors and images on the 16-inch 3.2K OLED display with an upgraded refresh rate of 120 Hz. With support for Window Studio Effects, you can present your best self with this laptop’s 1440p QHD webcam with automatic framing, gaze correction and advanced background blur.

Enjoy vivid, tear-free gameplay on its 16-inch WQXGA panel with thin bezel frames, a 240 Hz refresh rate and up to 32 GB of DDR5 RAM. This high-performance laptop also comes with one month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
