Xiaomi’s new Mi Notebook 14 Horizon Edition is a beast of a work laptop — and it’s cheap

60,000 ($788)), and it should delight most folks who want a truly portable computer.

Heres what you get for your money.

Oh, and it’s possible for you to open it with one hand!

You see, theres no webcam on here.

Youll certainly want to carry your headphones along wherever you go with this one.

20,000 more ($262), and is larger and a tad heavier.

The Mi Notebook 14 doesn’t look particularly remarkable, but maybe that’s what you want
