    TUXEDO Aura 15

     

    Fast, portable, flexible. The new TUXEDO Aura 15.

     

    Slim and robust chassis with aluminium cover, LTE module, fast USB-C 3.2 Gen2 with DisplayPort and Power Delivery feature and a powerful AMD Ryzen 7 4700U: The new TUXEDO Aura 15 combines the core elements of a professional business notebook with the affordable price of a Linux office notebook!

     

     

    Thin, lightweight, robust

     

    With its understated and unobtrusive chassis with its aluminum lid and bottom panel, the TUXEDO Aura 15 knows how to please without attracting attention. The compact dimensions with 19.7 mm height and the light weight of 1.65 kg make the Linux business notebook a portable and mobile companion for work and everyday life.

     

    The built-in 49 Wh battery supports the 'Flexicharger' feature for better battery longevity and, in combination with AMD's highly efficient Ryzen 7 4700U processor, offers runtimes of up to 9 hours in 1080p video streaming @ 150 cd/m2 brightness and up to 15 hours in idle mode.

     

    The particularly small and 280 gram lightweight 65 W power supply fits in every notebook bag and provides the AMD Business laptop with enough energy even for power-hungry tasks.

     

     

    Strong yet highly power efficient

     

    Talking about power hungry: The TUXEDO Aura 15 comes with one of the fastest APUs of AMD's new Ryzen 4000U power saving processors: The AMD Ryzen 7 4700U is capable for high multi core workloads thanks to its 8 cores and clockspeeds of up to 4.1 GHz.

     

    Despite its low power consumption (TDP) of 15 watts, which ensures very quiet fan noise, the fast Ryzen 4000U processors empower the Aura 15 to handle all everyday office tasks with ease. In addition, they even offer enough power for image and video editing. 

     

    The integrated Radeon RX Vega is even capable of playing Linux games with moderate hardware requirements. To take full advantage of the processors' performance, we strongly recommend to run the system in a Dual Channel RAM configuration (max. 2 x 32 GB DDR4 ).

     

     

    USB-C 3.2 Gen2 with DisplayPort 1.4

     

    For multi-monitor usage the TUXEDO Aura 15 provides besides HDMI 1.4 (with HDCP) also a DisplayPort 1.4 - port integrated in the fast USB 3.2 Gen2 (max. 10 GB/s) type C connector. Furthermore via the Power Delivery DC-in feature, the Aura 15 allows for charging the laptop using a USB-C power supply.

     

    Together with the 180° hinged 15.6 inch type IPS FullHD screen with 95 % sRGB color space coverage and a display brightness of around 300 nits, the compact Linux business laptop thus offers up to three simultaneously usable screen solutions.

     

     

    LTE Modul and Micro SD card reader

     

    Business users who rely on mobile internet everywhere will appreciate the integrated LTE module, while the space-saving M.2 (SATA / PCIe) connection provides mass storage for up to 2 TB. A memory expansion via Micro SD card reader is also on board as well as the RJ45 lan port for secure network connection.

     

    The multi-color backlit keyboard comes with an integrated number pad, the multi-gesture touchpad with integrated click buttons and a surface area of 120 x 72 mm provides a pleasantly large navigation area for the use on the go with the Linux business notebook.



    Technical Details

    Display / Monitor

    Modern displays with IPS panels have bright areas along the frame as a normal characteristic. This has hardly any influence on everyday operation, not least because the displays are optimized for daylight operation. It can only be minimized, but not completely avoided, regardless of the manufacturer and for manufacturing reasons. Details on pixel error classes can be found here.

    Alternatively, the device can also be charged via USB-C, USB-C power supply is not included.

     

    Lifetime of batteries

    The operation of all TUXEDO Books is also possible without battery. Users are often advised to remove the battery during permanent mains operation in order to conserve it. Thanks to FlexiCharger this is not necessary. Further Information


    Battery life: (with our optimizations)
    up to 15 hours at min. display-brightness, without Wifi & Bluetooth, without keyboard backlit, in idle mode
    up to 9 hours at medium brightness with Wifi, at office work

     

    We're testing battery time always in idle mode, at minimal display brightness, with keyboard backlight deactivated, Wi-Fi & Bluetooth disabled and without any further connected devices (USB, LAN, HDMI, VGA etc. unplugged!). We always test with integrated graphics when a dedicated and integrated graphics chip is installed.
    This way you get an information of maximal possible battery life. Starting from this, you can manage your individual battery life depending on your demands and to influence it, e.g. is keyboard backlight unnecessary during daylight. Bluetooth is also only needed to be turned on, if there's a Bluetooth device connected. Full display brightness as well is hardly always necessary.

    Cooling System & Fan

    Temperature controlled fan
    At low system workload, there is less heat emerging. The cooling system fans can spin accordingly slow or even turn themselves off completely. Depending on the chassis, cooling system and CPU and GPU, high to very high fan noise (air swooshing) is produced under full load. Thinner notebooks normally tend to get louder due to less cooling capacity.

    Custom performance and fan control with the TUXEDO Control Center
    With the TUXEDO Control Center you are able to control the performance and the behavior of the fans by yourself. This means that you get the ability to make your device as quiet as possible. By heavily reducing the performance you are able to set the device almost passive cooled, without any fan noise most of the time!

    System & Service

    Operating systems

    We install Ubuntu and TUXEDO OS (based on Ubuntu with KDE Plasma Desktop) in the latest 64-bit version with long term support.

    With our fully automatic installation WebFAI you can easily perform a Linux installation exactly as we at TUXEDO Computers do it in our production! You can choose from all distributions that we also offer in our configurator. Depending on the distribution, you have the choice between different desktop interfaces. More backgrounds and a video demo as well as detailed instructions can be found here.

     

    For "self-installers" and all who are interested, we have set up a database with downloads, instructions, tips & tricks and offer Tomte, a tool that automatically makes our adjustments under Ubuntu, elementary OS and Linux Mint:

     

     

    Encrypted Installation

    On request, we install your Linux system completely encrypted. The pre-installation as dual boot with Windows is technically not possible.
    Further details as well as a detailed introduction to encryption can be found here.

     

    Windows on request

    If you don't want or can't do without Windows, we install the desired Windows version next to Linux or alone. Please understand that a dual-boot installation can take 1-2 working days longer, even though the process is fully automatic. Please also note that we provide you with a correct Windows license incl. license sticker and installation DVD!

     

    Windows Drivers

    The corresponding Windows drivers are already included as standard with every device, regardless of whether it is with or without Windows or operating system installation. Alternatively, you are free to download all Windows-Drivers from here.

     

    UEFI firmware

    With all our notebooks you have the possibility to protect your privacy already on BIOS level. For this purpose the following functions can be completely deactivated:

    • Webcam
    • WLAN & Bluetooth

    In addition, our Premium BIOS allows chipset-specific settings and definitions for components via various profiles in order to operate the device optimally depending on its use.

    Further information can be found here in our manual.

     

    Warranty

    2 years pick up and return (12 months on wearing parts like battery & power supply)

    Optional: Up to 5 years pick up and return (12 months on wearing parts like battery & power supply)

     

    All devices have a maintenance-friendly design. Depending on the model, the essential hardware components such as processor, drive, hard disks, RAM, WIFI modules etc. can be accessed via maintenance flaps or removable floor trays. Furthermore the battery is replaceable if not stated differently. Of course, even after expiration of your warranty period, we're offering replacement parts and service for many years!
