Sustainability
Geekom does not provide detailed sustainability information on the GeekBook X14 Pro. The manufacturer merely refers to certifications such as CE, FCC and RoHS, which confirm basic safety, health and pollutant standards, but only allow limited statements to be made about comprehensive sustainable production.
Input devices
The keyboard of the GeekBook X14 Pro offers a low-key travel paired with a clearly perceptible pressure point. The keys provide a precise typing feel, which also makes longer typing sessions possible, although the feedback is somewhat firmer. The 12 × 7.2 centimeter touchpad works reliably, implements inputs precisely, and supports the usual multi-touch gestures. The high-quality feel and a discreet, well-muffled clicking noise underline the pleasant ease of use.
Display
The high-resolution OLED display (2,880 × 1,800 pixels) of the GeekBook X14 Pro leaves a very high-quality impression and is one of the notebook's clear strengths. Colors appear vibrant and natural at the same time, while the high contrast ensures deep blacks and a very vivid display. Content appears sharp and rich in detail, which is impressive for both image editing and media consumption. This is also underpinned by the almost perfect color space coverage. The high refresh rate also enables a pleasantly smooth display in everyday life. Thanks to OLED technology, there are no typical halos, which is particularly noticeable with dark content. Overall, the panel offers a modern, vivid picture quality with a clearly recognizable premium character. One point of criticism is the failure to achieve the advertised display brightness of 450 cd/m², which the manufacturer claims in the technical specifications.

The display backlight flickers at 122 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 100 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 122 Hz is very low, so the flickering may cause eyestrain and headaches after extended use. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8023 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured. | |||
Performance
Test conditions
All tests were carried out in the factory settings. The BIOS only provides basic setting options.
Processor
With a power consumption of 45 watts for short periods and around 35 watts continuously, the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H in the GeekBook X14 Pro delivers a solid performance that ensures the minimum that Intel specifies for the SoC. The low margin of Turbo usage results in poorer results compared to other devices with the same processor. In our comparison, the GeekBook X14 Pro can secure a place in the midfield and often duels with the Dell 14 Plus. Under sustained load, the performance reduces slightly and then stabilizes at a constant level - a common behavior for particularly light ultrabooks.

Temperature
In everyday use, the GeekBook X14 Pro remains inconspicuous in terms of temperature and only heats up slightly in typical applications such as office, web or streaming. Only during more demanding tasks does the heat development increase noticeably, but without becoming critical or heating up the palm rests unpleasantly. The compact cooling system is tailored to the slim casing and ensures that the processor and internal components work reliably within the intended temperature range even under load.

Speakers
The speakers of the GeekBook X14 Pro are clearly designed for everyday use and are well suited for video conferences, streams, or short videos. Voices are reproduced clearly, and bass is also present, at least to some extent. At maximum volume, however, there is audible distortion, which means that the sound quickly loses quality. Headphones or external speakers are therefore recommended for enjoying music or movies with more depth.

Battery life
The GeekBook X14 Pro relies on a battery with a capacity of 72 Wh, which enables a decent runtime in mixed everyday use of office, web, and streaming and allows mobile working for several hours. Depending on usage, a large part of a working day can be managed without a power socket. If the battery is empty, a full charge takes around three hours.
