According to Mynavi (originally reported in Japanese), the device has a 12.4-inch LCD display with an aspect ratio of 3: 2 and a resolution of 1920 x 1280 pixels.
The screen opens up to 180 degrees without touching the surface underneath, helped by a hinge design that keeps it somewhat raised.

Available in calm gray and black, the SC is powered by Intel‘S Core Ultra Series 2 processors, or the Ultra 7 255H or Ultra 5 255U, depending on the configuration.

The battery performance is rated up to 12.7 hours of video play and approximately 34.6 hours inactivity, according to Jeita 3.0 standards. When using Real-World, a load of 50% was left behind after 90+ minutes of light use and a video call of 30 minutes.

Most ports, including USB Type-A, Double Thunderbolt 4-compatible USB Type-C and HDMI, are now positioned on the left, which reduces cable drum when using a mouse.
The starting price is approximately 295,000 yen (around $ 1,880), with the general turnover expected on 20 June.
