The Chuwi MiniBook X is a new compact laptop featuring a touchscreen, a current-gen Intel processor and a decent amount of RAM. The display can be folded behind the keyboard, allowing the device function as a tablet.
The Chuwi MiniBook X might ring a bell for some readers. The company recently launched a new iteration of the compact convertible laptop, now powered by an Intel N150 processor. Whilst the N150 is a current-gen chip, it's not particularly powerful. Nevertheless, the laptop comes with a decent 12 GB of DDR5 memory and 512 GB of storage. The included SSD is user-replaceable, according to official specs.
Measuring just 11 mm (0.43 in) thick and weighing 920 g (2.03 lb), the thin and light convertible laptop features hinges that enable the display to fold behind the keyboard, transforming the device into a tablet. The touchscreen uses a 10.51-inch IPS panel with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,200 pixels.
The MiniBook X comes with a nearly 29 Wh battery capable of charging at up to 36 watts via USB-C. There are two USB-C ports on board, both of which support video output. Sorely missing is a USB-A ports, but the laptop does offer a 3.5 mm audio jack. The MiniBook X N150 ships with Windows 11 Home and is available directly from Chuwi for $352. As part of an ongoing sale ending on 7 May 2025, the company is offering the product at a discounted price of around $314. Those who are interested should review the shipping terms and conditions before making a purchase.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.
