Infinix INBook X2 laptop review: The thinner and lighter INBook X1 Pro
It's only been half a year since we reviewed the InBook X1 Pro and Infinix is already preparing to launch the InBook X2. Much like with last year's model, the InBook X2 targets the budget to midrange price range while offering more alluring specifications and looks to set itself apart from others. It also just happens to be the second laptop model ever from the manufacturer thus far.
Competitors to the InBook X2 include budget to midrange 14-inch thin-and-light laptops like the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 14, Asus VivoBook S14, Dell Inspiron series, or the HP Pavilion 14.

Case — Colorful Metal
Infinix utilizes similar metal alloy materials between the InBook X1 Pro and InBook X2 for a similar feel between the two models. The biggest difference lies in their dimensions and weight as the InBook X2 has narrower bezels for smaller dimensions and a noticeably lighter weight (1.2 kg vs. 1.5 kg). Chassis rigidity is slightly better than on an Asus VivoBook or Lenovo IdeaPad 3 but worse than on a higher-end Dell XPS 13 or HP Spectre. The base, keyboard center, and lid all twist more readily when compared to the aforementioned pricier alternatives.
Connectivity — No Thunderbolt Support
Port options are not the same as on last year's model. The proprietary barrel charger port and one USB-A port, for example, have both been dropped. Keep in mind that the HDMI port can only support external monitors at up to 4K and 30 Hz instead of 4K and 60 Hz.
Though there are two USB-C ports, only the left one is capable of charging the laptop or outputting to external monitors. The right USB-C port cannot do either.
Annoyingly, the right USB-A port is upside down whereas the left USB-A port is right-side up. This is perhaps the first laptop we've seen with such a counterintuitive USB configuration.
SD Card Reader
The integrated MicroSD card reader remains slow much like how it was on the InBook X1 Pro.

Communication — Wi-Fi 5 Only
The Intel 9461 comes standard for Wi-Fi 5 connectivity and theoretical speeds of up to 433 Mbps compared to over twice that on the latest Wi-Fi 6 modules likely to save on costs. We experienced no connectivity issues when paired to our Netgear RAX200 test router. In contrast, the InBook X1 Pro would ship with Wi-Fi 6.
Webcam
Webcam clarity has improved over the InBook X1, but colors and resolution haven't changed.
New to the InBook X2 are two front-facing white LEDs next to the webcam to improve lighting if in a dark room. These LEDs are more trouble than they are worth, however, as the light is blinding and uncomfortable.
Maintenance
The bottom panel pops off relatively easily once its 11 Philips screws are removed. Users can only upgrade the lone M.2 PCIe3 x4 SSD as both RAM and WLAN are soldered.
Accessories and Warranty
There are no extras in the box other than the AC adapter and paperwork. The one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies. Claiming warranty can be difficult as it may require overseas shipping.
Input Devices — Comfortable and Clicky
Keyboard
The keyboard is identical to the one on the InBook X1 Pro for an identical typing experience. A backlight is available here to illuminate all keys and symbols whereas such a feature was absent on the older InBook X1 Pro.
Touchpad
The clickpad is larger than the one on the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro 14 (12.5 x 7 cm vs. 10.5 x 7 cm) while being slightly narrower than the clickpad on the InBook X1 Pro. Cursor control is smooth and responsive without any sudden jumps or stops. The integrated clickpad buttons also have satisfying feedback when pressed, but they are shallow and relatively loud as a consequence.
Display — Wide Colors, Slow Response Times
Infinix is using a different panel for its InBook X2 when compared to the InBook Pro X1. The newer panel is brighter but with otherwise similar color reproduction and contrast levels. Unfortunately, black-white and gray-gray response times are much slower this time around for noticeable ghosting. This effect is most evident when moving the cursor or when running fast-moving games.

* ... smaller is better
The panel covers approximately 90 percent of sRGB not unlike many mid-range or higher-end Ultrabooks. Budget or lower-end models would typically cover just 60 percent of sRGB to be unfit for graphics editing.
Grayscale is too cool out of the box and colors suffer as a result. Once calibrated, average grayscale and color deltaE values would improve by relatively wide margins from 5.8 to 2.2 and 4.9 to 1.59, respectively. We recommend calibrating the display to better exploit its wide sRGB color range.

In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 97 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (32.8 ms). |
Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
Screen flickering / PWM detected | 10000 Hz | ≤ 99 % brightness setting | |
The display backlight flickers at 10000 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 99 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 10000 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8705 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured. |
The brighter display makes the InBook X2 easier to use outdoors than with the Asus VivoBook S14 or older InBook Pro X1. Some glare will be inevitable, but it is at least not as distracting as on other laptops with glossy panels.
Performance — 10th Gen Intel Ice Lake
Testing Conditions
Our unit was set to High Performance mode via Windows for the best possible benchmark scores.
Processor
CPU performance is about 10 to 15 percent slower than the average Core i7-1065G7 laptop in our database. Turbo Boost clock rates fluctuate over long periods much like what we discovered on last year's InBook X1 Pro. CineBench R15 xT loop scores would consequently fluctuate between 490 and 560 points whereas the score would remain flat on most other Ultrabooks.
Note that the CPU in the InBook X1 Pro is consistently outperforming our CPU in the InBook X2 even though both systems are using the same processor. This is further explored in our Stress Test and Power Consumption sections below.

System Performance
PCMark scores are noticeably lower than on the Xenia 14 with the newer Tiger Lake Core i7-1165G7 CPU but otherwise comparable to the first generation InBook X1 Pro. Subjectively, navigating through Windows 11 feels a bit clunky on this system as there slight delays when opening file explorer and other applications.

Storage Devices — Room For Just One
A 512 GB Foresee GSYAPGC M.2 2280 PCIe3 x4 NVMe SSD comes standard with sequential read and write rates approaching 2500 MB/s and 1500 MB/s, respectively. It's a midrange NVMe SSD that doesn't come close to the pricier Samsung PM981a, but it is otherwise more than enough given the processor and hardware that it is paired to.
The SSD exhibits no performance falloff when running DiskSpd in a loop to suggest no thermal throttling.

GPU Performance — Better Than Any UHD Graphics 620
Overall graphics performance is about where we expect it to be relative to other laptops with the same integrated Iris Plus G7 GPU. We suspect that results could have been slightly higher if it were not for the lower-than-average CPU performance noted above and limited 8 GB of RAM. Even so, the Iris Plus G7 is still much faster than the older UHD Graphics 620.
Frame rates would fluctuate between 40 and 50 FPS when running Witcher 3 on low 720p settings due to fluctuating GPU clock rates.
