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.

Battery & power supply
4-cell lithium-ion battery, 62 Wh
To change the battery, the base plate must be removed. Afterwards, it can be replaced with only two screws without any problems. It's not glued in.
Power supply:
19.5V, 9.23A, 180W power supply
As a mobile travel power supply we recommend our 60/65W power supply. Power your notebook with enough power to perform normal office work on the go. An alternative is our 120W slim power supply, which covers almost all power requirements at maximum load. This supplies the device with sufficient energy on the road, but is relatively light and small. And if there should be a shortterm bottleneck, there is the built-in notebook battery!
Battery runtime
Battery life approx. 6 hours with min. brightness in idle mode
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.

Additional: Energy saving graphics chip integrated in CPU: Intel UHD Graphics 630
The following resolutions are possible over all connections individually or parallel:
1x Notebook display:
Full-HD 1920 x 1080 connected by NVIDIA Optimus or directly to the NVIDIA GeForce.
1x Mini-DisplayPort 1.4:
1080p@240Hz, 1440p@240Hz, 1600p@200Hz, 4K@120Hz, 5K@60Hz, 8K@60Hz (with DSC) directly connected to the NVIDIA GeForce.
1x DisplayPort 1.4 through USB-C:
1080p@240Hz, 1440p@240Hz, 1600p@200Hz, 4K@120Hz, 5K@60Hz, 8K@60Hz (with DSC) directly connected to the NVIDIA GeForce.
1x HDMI 2.0:
1080p@240Hz, 1440p@120Hz, 1600p@120Hz, 4K@60Hz
With these maximum resolutions, 4 displays can be controlled simultaneously, e.g. 1x notebook display and 3x external monitors. DaisyChaining also rows further displays together.

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!
