First impression was superlight, but keyboard look is not sexy, like I used HP 14-S.
I connected SSD from HP-14S via SSD Casing, it was asking BitLocker key in all partitions. It was easy to find out by a simple Google search. Visit: https://account.microsoft.com/devices/recoverykey for more details.

Installed CCleaner and found a startup VBmigrate.vbs.Ink

However I deleted it from main source and startups. Though it's a fresh copy of Win11, I doubt it's a malware related stuff.
Background of buying new laptop:
My old lappy from HP got hit by water damage and I needed a fast replacement till it has been repaired in a trusted shop. So I started looking for a new laptop at budget of Rs 60,000 with good specs from September 2024.
First of all I found out that Xiaomi exited laptop business in India in 02/2024. I checked first at Mi Store app, there is no laptop listed. Then I googled to find out Xiaomi left laptop biz in India.
Even Nokia and realme also no longer bring new models since their entry in 2022.
In 2022 Intel had 12th gen chipsets, and 2023 got 13th gen chipsets from Intel - for every ranges like i3 to i9. But in 2024 Intel has 2 variant of 14th gen chipsets - Raptor Lake (includes 13th and 14th processors both) and Meteor Lake (1st gen of Intel Ultra Core mobile processors).
- Raptor Lake 14th gen processors have similar naming system - Intel Core iX 14XXXXX .
- Intel Ultra Core processors will have a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) and will have Intel Arc Graphics on-board. These laptops are now tagged as AI-PC or AI-laptops.
These days 'CoPilot+ PC's are the in-thing. If you are truly ignorant about this, let me tell you that Copilot is an AI based application that's introduced by Microsoft from Windows 11. It helps to enhance productivity. Microsoft's latest Surface and Pro siblings are probably the first line up of CoPilot+ PC.
And there are AI PCs - I guess these are interesting ones as they have NPU (neural processing units). These are powered by Intel Core Ultra Processors - most of them are costing more than 80k in India. And we got Laptops from Qualcomm - Snapdragon X Elite or X Plus powered devices cost Rs 1L minimum. Snapdragon X2 may also be for desktops too.
