Coda 1.2 Intel Celeron N4020 4GB 64GB eMMC 12.5 Inch Windows 10 Laptop Includes Office 365

Product Information

Itgoes the extra step with its efficient, slim design by including a full-width keyboard that runs from edge to edge, making the most of its 12.5-inch profile for a comfortable typing experience, without wasting space on your desk. The Wi-Fi chip is Intel’s 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) 1x1 solution, the AC3165. The module is not upgradeable, but the antennas are well integrated into the system.

The Coda Spirit: A Cheap Chinese Atom This is the Foresee eMMC chip, which Coda told us is eMMC 5.0, however we seem to have an eMMC 5.1 chip. The E6500 we tested before used GMA4500 graphics, which are super old. This Celeron N3550 has HD 500 graphics, and is part of Intel’s Gen 9.5 family, so what we see here is a swing from a CPU limited test to a GPU limited test. Sort of. The N3350 is running in single-channel mode, which will hurt the performance quite a bit.

In single-threaded workloads, our 2016 chip is easily trounced by a 2009 Core CPU. Note however that the E6500 is a 65 W part and the N3350 is a 6 W CPU, so technically performance per Watt is on the side of the N3350. A: You must have an early device; we update the Windows image with each batch produced. Devices that come preinstalled with 1903 have Reserved Storage enabled (updating to 1903 doesn’t enable this) from what I have seen Reserved Storage fixes all the issue that Windows 10 had when trying to update on low storage devices. Yes, future devices will have a more up to date Windows build. The first look inside shows a massive lithium-ion battery. It shows here the 5000 mAh we saw on the box, and the conversion to 38 Wh for laptop land. All the important stuff seems to be on the left-hand side (as seen). Here’s the main area of the laptop, with everything in a small PCB. The single metal heatsink is for practically every chip in the system, with zero fan for this design.

There was one small hiccup when starting the system. Naturally I wanted to update the unit to Windows 1909, the latest at the time, from the Windows 1809 (17763.168) it shipped with. Unfortunately the onboard eMMC was not enough, saying I needed another 10 GB. On the cheaper devices, the display is usually one of the first things to go. To that end, I’ve seen 15-inch Ice Lake systems with 1366x768 displays! However one of the best upgrades for this Coda Spirit system is the 1920x1080 IPS display. Viewing angles and crispness is great. One of the areas I was concerned about though was brightness and color accuracy. At all resolutions we have the N3350 beating the E6500 in single-channel, but it loses out at 800x600 to the dual channel E6500 results. It is worth noting that we saw 28 FPS for the E6500 DC at 1280x1024: for the Celeron N3350, we hit 1920x1080 to get the same 28 FPS result. So despite the large TDP difference between the two chips, and the CPU performance between the two, the Celeron’s newer graphics helps it in most gaming scenarios especially as we crank the resolution. So one thing we can test here is the storage, especially given that we have official numbers on the Foresee eMMC onboard, as well as numbers from Coda on the M.2 SATA port. There are four different storage elements to this system: In our previous cheap system analysis, we used Counter Strike: Source with a timedemo benchmark. With such low-end graphics, even now with the 6W CPU that technically supports DirectX 12.1, gaming is going to be limited. Popular titles like Counter Strike, despite the longer loading times, are the sort of titles that are going to be the focus on gaming.Love or hate them, video calls are a thing, and CODA 1.2 is a laptop well prepared– A built-in 2.0MP front-facing camera, along with integrated dual mics and speakers, mean you’ve got everything you need to face them head-on. Making this the perfect companion for Teams and Zoom Calls.
