IFA 2024 | Tecno MegaBook K16S debuts as affordable new Ryzen laptop
Tecno's new MegaBook K-series (a tier below S and T in the OEM's rankings) laptop has been slated as an entry-level PC on its IFA 2024 debut, yet one up-to-date enough to boast a Microsoft Copilot key.
The Ryzen 5 7430U processor is paired to a "large displacement cooling fan and multiple air vents" in the K16S, and is thus touted to drive its cost-effective performance "without significant slowdowns" (although attempts at light gaming only is recommended)
The laptop also packs 2.5W Tecno VOC Sound System speakers with extra DTS "master tuning", a 2MP "AI" webcam and a microphone rated to reproduce the user's voice from up to 5 meters away from the PC, all powered by a 70Wh battery.
The K16S' metallic housing also boasts a fingerprint reader integrated into its power button and an RJ-45 jack, in addition to 7 other ports even less well specified at this time.
Tecno has yet to announce pricing or a release date for the new K16S, but does divulge that it can be configured with up to 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD thus far. For what it's worth, a 32GB RAM/2TB ThinkBook 16 G6 with the same processor is currently $679 on Amazon.
