Mouse X2 laptop with AMD Ryzen 5 216 APU, Digi Mart USA News (Japan): Japanese consumer PC brand Mouse Computer has put its entry-level Mouse X2 laptop on sale, according to a publisher report by Notebookcheck. The model completes a lineup that already included variants with the AMD Ryzen 5 340 and Ryzen 7 350 APUs, which the company introduced a few weeks earlier.
The Ryzen 5 216 APU has six cores and is expected to deliver multithreaded performance in the same range as an Intel Core Ultra 5 225U, according to the report. The publication also estimates it is roughly 10% more powerful than the A18 Pro in the MacBook Neo.
The laptop ships with 8 GB of RAM, which the report describes as a potential concern, but buyers can upgrade it to 32 GB through a single DDR5-5600 SODIMM slot. Storage is a 512 GB NVMe drive in an M.2 2280 slot.
The X2 has a 12.2-inch display at 1920 x 1200 resolution, which Mouse says covers the full sRGB color gamut. The company has not shared DCI-P3 coverage or color accuracy figures.
The laptop weighs 981 grams and measures 27.7 x 21 x 1.9 cm, and the report notes that its bottom bezel makes it larger than its screen size suggests.
Other listed features include a 60 Wh battery rated for up to 11.5 hours of video playback, a 180° hinge, MIL-STD-810H certification, gigabit LAN, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5 and a 2 MP front camera with Windows Hello support. The entry-level X2 is priced at 199,800 yen, or roughly $1,251. Mouse mainly serves the Japanese market, so a global rollout is considered unlikely; buyers outside Japan may need to use import or shipment forwarding services.
