Back in August, Illegar expanded its productivity laptop line-up by introducing the Atomic 16. Now, the company has added another option called Atomic 14 which as you may be able to guess from its name, is a much more compact offering.
At a glance, it is really their screen sizes that set these two Illegear Atomic models apart. In place of the 16-inch screen, the new laptop has been equipped with a 14-inch IPS display even though the laptop still has a similar design language and was even built using the same magnalium material for its chassis.
As for its processor, Illegear has retained the Intel Core i7-12700H as one of the options for Atomic 14. The second option is slightly different though in the form of the Intel Core i5-12450H which runs at a lower speed and has less amount of processing cores & threads as compared to the Core i5-12500H that was offered for Atomic 16.
Headphone and microphone combo port remain standard on the Atomic 14 as well as a white backlit silent keyboard, a pair of 1.5W speakers, dual digital microphone, and HDMI 1.4 port. The laptop also comes with a physical switch for its webcam which is yet another feature that was not available on Atomic 16.
Available for pre-order right away through Illegear’s official website, the base model for Atomic 14 which features Core i5-12450H, 4GB DDR5 RAM, and 512GB NVMe solid state drive costs RM3,199. With an estimated delivery date sometime in January 2023, pre-order customers will be provided with a free upgrade to 8GB DDR5 RAM and Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut implementation as well as up to three free games from the Intel Gamer Days bundle.
