Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial setup is streamlined via the Windows 11 Home out-of-box experience; simply follow the on-screen prompts to connect to your Wi-Fi 7 network and register your Microsoft account.
For compatibility, ensure your essential professional software is verified for Windows on ARM, as the Snapdragon processor utilizes a different architecture than traditional x86 chips. To maintain the aluminium housing, use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth for cleaning. Avoid using harsh chemicals on the PixelSense touchscreen; a light wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient. Always ensure the device is stored in a cool, dry place to preserve the 50 Wh lithium-ion battery health.
