They forged the shell of the Mi Notebook Ultra from aluminium and the lid surface has a sandblasted finish.

You can’t expand the RAM, however, there is a variant with 16GB RAM with the same CPU, but it will cost Rs.5,000 extra.
The 512GB SSD provides a swift OS boot up and application loading. From the storage perspective, it should be enough to store multimedia files and documents.
The Intel integrated Iris Xe GPU is much improved and in your free time, you can enjoy some of the medium-sized games, but keep in mind that the machine is more focused on providing a fruitful everyday performance and not gaming.
