There's also a new design feature called Dark Core. As mentioned by the firm, this feature “darkens the interior shade of the laptop to minimize distractions and keep your head in the game.” What's more is that the notebook has a High-Endurance paint formula with increased stain-resistance. The mechanical keyboard is co-developed with Cherry MX.
