HP Pavilion Aero 13 is India’s lightest AMD-powered laptop

Thin and light laptops have come in vogue over the last year owing to the rise in remote working. Aiming to capitalise on that is the new HP Pavilion Aero 13 laptop — India’s lightest consumer notebook to be powered by AMD.

Weighing just around 970g, these are amongst the most portable machines available today. The overall accolade goes to the recently-unveiled Fujistu UH-X laptop at 878g. The HP Pavilion Aero 13 is also the first device in the series to have a screen-to-body ratio of 90%. The body is made out of magnesium-aluminium whereas the plastics are all post-consumer recycled and ocean-bound.
