Medion Erazer Major X20 review: Gaming notebook with RTX 4070 and solid hardware

The Medion Erazer Major X20 is primarily a gaming notebook, but is also made for other computing-intensive application scenarios. Compared to its predecessor, the X20 has received some useful upgrades: the Arc A730M graphics core has given way to a significantly more powerful GeForce RTX 4070. Furthermore, a mechanical keyboard replaces the chiclet model, while one of the two USB-C ports (USB 3.2 Gen 2) has been removed and the remaining one has been upgraded to a Thunderbolt 4 port.
The X20 is based on a Tongfang barebone (GM6PX7X), which is largely similar to the model known from the XMG Neo 16, but the port for the water cooling is missing. Competitors include laptops such as the Aorus 15X ASF, the Razer Blade 15 OLED (Early 22) and the Asus ROG Strix G17 G713PI.

Case - A discreet exterior for the Medion laptop
Medion uses a chic, sober chassis that does not stand out, even in a professional environment. The back of the lid of the matte black case is made of aluminum, the base unit of plastic. A non-slip rubber coating covers the base unit's upper side. In addition to the key backlight (RGB), two freely configurable LED strips (RGB) inside the rear air vents and the illuminated Erazer logo on the lid loosen up the otherwise serious-looking case.
The 16 incher reveals no manufacturing flaws. Gap dimensions are even and there are no material protrusions. The base unit can only be twisted slightly, the lid more clearly, but the entire device is within reasonable limits. The battery (screwed, not glued) and other internal components are accessible after removing the bottom shell. The hinges keep the lid firmly in position and the maximum opening angle is about 130 degrees. One-hand opening of the lid is possible.

Equipment - Major X20 offers Thunderbolt 4
The Erazer has three USB-A ports (1x USB 3.2 Gen 1, 2x USB 3.2 Gen 2) and one USB-C port (Thunderbolt 4). The latter outputs a DisplayPort signal, but does not provide any Power Delivery support. The Major X20 also boasts a total of two video outputs (HDMI 2.1, DP). Further connections include a slot for a cable lock, two audio jacks and a Gigabit Ethernet port (2.5 Gbps).
Video outputs, the power slot and the network port are located on the back of the device. The corresponding cables thus run from the back and do not get in the way.
SD Card Reader
The microSD memory card reader (reference card: AV PRO microSD 128 GB V60) is among the medium-fast models with maximum transfer rates of 78 MB/s (transfer of 250 jpg image files with around 5 MB each) and 88 MB/s (copying of large data blocks).

Communication
WiFi data rates are excellent under optimal conditions (no WLAN devices in the immediate vicinity, small distance between laptop and server PC). The X20 has a WiFi 6E chip (Intel AX211) on board. Wired connections are handled by a chip (RTL8125; 2.5 GBit/s) from Realtek.

Webcam
The webcam (2.1 MP, max. 1,920 x 1,080) delivers standard quality. Color accuracy is lacking: at a color deviation of about 11, the target (DeltaE less than 3) is missed. No mechanical shutter is on board.

Accessories
Apart from the usual documents (quick start guide and warranty information), no other accessories are included with the notebook.
Maintenance
After removing all screws on the underside of the device, the bottom shell can be detached using a flat spatula or a joint smoother. You then have access to the two RAM slots (both occupied), the two SSDs (PCIe 4, M.2-2280), the WLAN module, the fans, the BIOS battery and the laptop battery.
Warranty
Medion provides a two-year warranty on the Erazer in Germany. This may differ in other countries, so buyers should double check before purchasing.
Warranty extensions are available but have to be purchased together with the notebook in Medion's online store. A subsequent purchase is not possible.
Input Devices - Mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX switches
Keyboard
Instead of a chiclet keyboard, Medion has installed a mechanical keyboard into the X20. The Cherry MX switches have a medium travel and a clearly audible and noticeable pressure point. The user is spoiled with a rich typing feel and precise feedback, and the keyboard does not yield during typing. Two function keys regulate the brightness of the four-stage individual key illumination (RGB). Overall, we can speak of a solid keyboard here.
Touchpad
A multi-touch capable clickpad (approx. 11.6 x 7.2 cm) serves as a mouse replacement. Its smooth surface makes finger gliding easy. It offers short travel and a clear pressure point. A finger tap on the LED in the upper left corner turns the entire pad on or off.
Display - QHD+ in 16:10-Format
Medion installs a 240 Hz panel with G-Sync support. The latter dynamically adjusts the refresh rates of the display and GPU to create the smoothest possible picture quality - particularly when gaming.
PWM flickering is not present at any brightness setting. The brightness and contrast of the matte 16-inch panel (2560x1600) in the work-friendly 16:10 format reach the respective target (> 300 cd/m² or 1000:1).

* ... smaller is better
The screen produces good color representation in the delivery state: The target (DeltaE < 3) is reached with a deviation of about 2.4. Manual calibration reduces the deviation to 1.4 and ensures a more balanced grayscale.
The panel completely covers the sRGB color space, but not the AdobeRGB and DCI-P3 color spaces. If all three color spaces are required, there is no way around the Blade 15's OLED screen.

Performance - Raptor Lake and Ada Lovelace power the gaming notebook
Gaming, rendering, and generally all performance demanding application areas count among the Erazer Major X20's application scenarios. Raptor Lake and Ada Lovelace provide the necessary computing power. This model is available for around EUR 2,500 (~US$2,500).
Testing Conditions
The X20 offers three manufacturer-specific power modes (see table), which you can select via a separate button (next to the power button). A status LED reveals which mode is active. "Turbo Mode" (benchmarks) and "Office Mode" (battery tests) were used. Optimus was active.
Individual profiles can be created using the preinstalled Control Center software. For example, the power limits of the CPU, the TGP of the GPU and/or the upper temperature limits can be adjusted.
We used the English-language interface of the CC software because the German translation was partially unsuccessful. You can switch between the two languages.
Turbo Mode (dt: Overboost) | Balance Mode (dt: Balanced) | Office Mode (dt: Balanced) | |
---|---|---|---|
CPU PL1 (HWInfo) | 140 watts | 140 watts | 140 watts |
CPU PL2 (HWInfo) | 140 watts | 140 watts | 140 watts |
Noise (Witcher 3) | 50-53 dB(A) | 48-51 dB(A) | 36-43 dB(A), later 32-34 dB(A) |
Performance (Witcher 3) | 124 fps | 118 fps | 114-118 fps, later 30 fps lock |
Processor
The Core-i9-13900HX processor (Raptor Lake) consists of eight performance cores (hyperthreading, 2.2 to 5.4 GHz) and sixteen efficiency cores (no hyperthreading, 1.6 to 3.9 GHz). In total, there are 32 logical CPU cores. The benchmark results are on par with the CPU's average rates.
The CPU tests of the Cinebench R15 benchmark were run at high to maximum clock rates in mains operation. Single-thread performance (222 points), which is relevant to everyday use, drops significantly less in battery mode than multi-thread performance (1025 points).
The CB15 loop test reveals that a high turbo clock is consistently sustained under multi-thread load in mains operation. The clock rate only drops minimally over the course of the test.

Storage Devices
The Erazer houses two 1 TB SSDs (PCIe 4, M.2-2280) from Phison, which deliver good performance rates overall. The SSDs do not form a RAID array, nor does the X20 offer RAID support - one SSD serves as the system drive, the other as data storage. A positive aspect: thermal throttling was not observed.
