A new trend seems to be rising among Chinese manufacturers, and it's an odd one at that. While rumors chalk off Apple's MacBook Air as dead (http://mashable.com/2016/07/05/macbook-air-**-updates/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) (the reasoning being that it's been all but replaced by the company's new ultra-thin MacBook (http://mashable.com/category/macbook/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial)) a crop of new ultraportables with "Air" in their names are showing up in China.*
A few days ago, it was Xiaomi's Mi **tebook Air; on Thursday, Le**vo *launched (http://www.le**vo.com.cn/activity/marketing/air13pro/index.html) the Le**vo Air 13 Pro, a 13-inch, ******* 10-based ultraportable with a dedicated graphics chip.*
SEE ALSO: Xiaomi's MacBook Air clone is called, wait for it, Mi **tebook Air (http://mashable.com/2016/07/27/xiaomis-macbook-air-clone-mi-**tebook-air/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial)
The Le**vo Air 13 Pro has a 13.3-inch full HD screen, an Intel Core i5 or i7 (Skylake) processor, 4GB of RAM, 256GB/512GB of SSD storage and Nvidia's GeForce GTX940MX graphics chip
It sounds like a dead ringer for Xiaomi's 13-inch offering, but there are differences. The Le**vo starts with less RAM — 4GB vs. 8GB — but it comes with a fingerprint sensor, and it has a more powerful graphics chip (2GB of RAM vs 1GB). The price of the two (at least during Le**vo's pre-order period) is the same: RMB 4,999, or roughly $750
That price will go up when the device hits stores. The least expensive version, with 4GB of RAM, a 256GB SSD and an Intel Core i5 processor will cost RMB 5,499 ($827). Read more...
