Case - The X10 features a compact metal case
The demand for gaming laptops that come in a discreet design is growing increasingly. With the Beast X10, the supply has been extended by a further device of this kind. Here, Medion uses a fancy, matte black colored full metal case that wouldn't attract attention in a professional environment. The slim display bezels contribute greatly to the laptop's attractive look. You can reach the inside after removing the bottom cover. The battery is firmly installed.
The laptop shows good workmanship. The gap dimensions are in order, and there's no excess material to be found. Moreover, the device doesn't show any stability deficiencies. The opposite is the case: The X10 offers such a rigid base unit that it's rare for us to find something like it. The lid can be twisted, but the whole situation still remains within the limits. Pressure on the backside of the lid doesn't lead to changes on the image. The hinges hold the lid firmly in position. The maximum aperture angle is about 130 degrees. In addition, opening the lid with one hand is possible.

Within our comparison field, the Erazer is one of the most compact devices. It's only just beaten by the Razer Blade Pro 17. However, it weighs almost 400 grams less than the Blade.
Connectivity - Thunderbolt 3 on board
The X10 offers a well-rounded interface selection. The laptop comes with three USB Type-A ports (2x USB 3.1 Gen 1, 1x USB 3.2 Gen 2) and one USB Type-C port (Thunderbolt 3). The latter supports DisplayPort via USB-C. Therefore, the laptop has two video outputs together with the HDMI 2.0 connection. The whole package is rounded off with two audio jacks (headphone output, microphone input), a Gigabit Ethernet port, and an opening for a cable lock. A microSD memory card reader is also included.
How much memory does the X10 support?
Medion's specifications regarding RAM are unclear. On the Medion website it says: "Max. supported RAM memory: 32 GB". It seems that this doesn't refer to the maximum possible amount of RAM but to the maximum size of the individual memory modules. We have successfully replaced one of the two 16 GB modules with a 32 GB module (see HWiNFO screenshot). As a result, the X10 should support up to 64 GB of RAM.
Communication
The WLAN chip (AX201) from Intel supports the 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax WLAN standards and offers Bluetooth 5 functionality. The transmission speeds determined under optimal conditions (no other WLAN devices nearby, short distance between laptop and server PC) are outstanding. A Gigabit controller from Realtek's well-known RTL8168/8111 family is responsible for wired network connections. It performs its tasks smoothly.

Webcam
The webcam (0.9 MP; max. 1280x720 pixels) is located at the bottom of the display. It doesn't produce convincing images, since it lacks color accuracy. With a deviation of almost 20, the target (Delta E less than 3) is clearly missed.





Accessories
The laptop comes with the usual documents: A quick-start guide and warranty information.
Maintenance
You can get to the inside of the laptop quite easily. After removing all screws on the underside of the device, the bottom cover can be detached. A grout finishing tool or a thin spatula can be used to loosen the clamps securing the bottom cover; it sits quite tightly in some places. Afterwards, you have access to the two memory slots (both occupied), the two M.2 2280 slots (one occupied), the WLAN module, the BIOS battery, and the rechargeable battery.
Warranty
Medion grants the Erazer a two-year warranty. Warranty extensions are not available.
Input devices - Chiclet keyboard with RGB backlighting
Keyboard
The X10 has a backlit chiclet keyboard on board; its concave keys offer a short travel and a clear pressure point. The keys sit quite close together (distance: Approx. 2 mm). The main keys are fairly large, measuring about 16 x 16 mm. Good: The keyboard doesn't yield during typing. All in all, Medion delivers a keyboard suitable for everyday use here.
Touchpad
Display - 144 Hz IPS
The matte 17.3-inch display of the Beast X10 has a native resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. Brightness (297.3 cd/m²) and contrast (1,159:1) are at a fairly good level. Positive: The display shows no PWM flickering. Moreover, the response times of the 144 Hz panel are in order.

* ... smaller is better
Already out of the box, the display shows a very decent color reproduction. With a Delta E 2000 color deviation of just under 3, the target (Delta E less than 3) is met. In addition, the display doesn't suffer from a blue tint. Calibration provides for improvements: In this way, the color deviation is reduced to 1.03, and the grayscales are displayed in a more balanced way. The AdobeRGB (66%) and sRGB (89%) color spaces aren't fully reproduced.

Performance - Sufficient for the coming years
With the Erazer Beast X10, Medion has a 17.3-inch gaming laptop in its range that brings every modern game smoothly onto the screen. Our test device will set you back about 2,200 Euros (~$2,631). Other configurations are available.
Test conditions
The preinstalled Gaming Center allows you to monitor the system status, adjust the keyboard backlight, and select a performance profile ("Office Mode", "Game Mode", "Turbo Mode"). We conducted our test under the "Game Mode" and with automatic fan control. The "Turbo Mode" doesn't increase performance compared to the "Game Mode". This might be different with other configuration variants of the X10. Next to the laptop's power button, there's another key that serves to quickly switch between profiles.
Game Mode | Turbo Mode | Office Mode | Office Mode - Eco | |
---|---|---|---|---|
PL1 | 120 watts | 120 watts | 100 watts | 25 watts |
PL2 | 120 watts | 120 watts | 100 watts | 25 watts |
For most users, the "Game Mode" and the "Office Mode", including the manually selectable "Eco" option, should be of interest, since this is a good choice for everyday use (office, Internet). The CPU then works at the same power level as conventional ULV processors. In other words: The computing power decreases, and the fans work much less frequently. Some of the comparison tables in this review contain benchmark results obtained under the "Office Mode (Eco)" profile.
Processor
Medion equips the X10 with a Core i7-10750H hexa-core processor (Comet Lake). The CPU works at a base speed of 2.6 GHz. The clock rate can be increased to 4.3 GHz (six cores) or up to 5 GHz (one core) via Turbo. Hyper-Threading (two threads per core) is supported.
The CPU processes the multithread test of the Cinebench R15 benchmark at 4.2 GHz. The single-thread test is executed at 4.2 to 5 GHz. On battery power, the speeds are 2.2 to 2.5 GHz (multithread) and 2.2 to 2.7 GHz (single-thread), respectively.

System performance
The system runs well and smoothly. We didn't encounter any problems. Owners of the Beast X10 won't lack system performance - and this is true for the coming years as well. The hardware cuts a fine figure in all common application areas. This is also confirmed by the results in the PCMark benchmarks.

Graphics card
The GeForce RTX 2070 Super Max Q graphics core (Turing) is part of the GPU upper class. It's accompanied by fast GDDR6 memory (8,192 MB). The 3DMark results are at a normal level for the GPU used here. "Turbo Mode" doesn't increase graphics performance. The UHD Graphics 630 GPU integrated into the processor is active, and the laptop works with Nvidia's Optimus graphics-switching solution.

Gaming performance
The Beast brings all the latest games at Full HD resolution and maximum quality settings smoothly onto the screen. Higher resolutions can also be supported by connecting an appropriate monitor - but you may have to make some compromises in terms of quality settings. "Turbo Mode" doesn't lead to an increase in frame rates.

In order to verify whether the frame rates remain largely constant over a prolonged period of time, we let the game The Witcher 3 run for about 60 minutes at Full HD resolution and maximum quality settings. The character is not moved. A drop in frame rates wasn't found.
