Fujitsu Lifebook U938 (i5-8250U, LTE, SSD, FHD) Subnotebook Review
Lightweight luxury. Compared to its predecessor, the Lifebook U938 is slightly lighter. The biggest upgrade is the quad-core processor but not much has changed otherwise. Battery life is still decent but falls short in direct comparison with its biggest rivals.
