The INBook X3 Slim, Infinix's latest ultra-portable notebook, comes with 12th Gen Intel chips, which is pretty standard for entry-level models.

What really shines is its design – clean lines, stylish colors, and lovely textural details. You'll love the two-tone finish on the lid, with a matte lower part and a brushed metal top. It's available in Cosmic Blue, Noble Red, Starfall Gray, and the stunning Aurora Green.

Almost everything, from the lid to the keyboard deck, is made of aluminum. It's quite slim at 14.8mm and weighs only 1.24kg, comparable to the M2 MacBook Air but slightly thicker. The build quality is decent, although not on par with the MacBook Air. There's a bit of flex in the keyboard deck, but it still feels well-made.

The only gripes are the stiff lid hinge, making it tricky to open, and the lack of a proper cutout to grab the lid, so you'll need your nails or fingertips. Despite these quirks, it's a well-designed notebook, especially for the price.
