Graphics are handled by integrated Intel® Arc™ Graphics 140V, providing significantly stronger graphics capabilities than traditional integrated business graphics. It is well suited to accelerated professional applications, multimedia, content creation, high-resolution external displays and light creative workloads.
The notebook features 32GB LPDDR5X-8533 dual-channel memory, integrated directly into the system. This high-speed memory provides excellent bandwidth for intensive multitasking and AI workloads, although it is soldered and cannot be upgraded.
Storage is provided by a spacious 1TB M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe Opal 2.0 SSD, delivering fast boot times, responsive application loading and generous capacity for professional files. The platform provides one M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot and supports SSD capacities of up to 2TB.
One of the standout features is its premium 14-inch WUXGA (1920 × 1200) OLED display. The non-touch panel delivers 400-nit brightness, 100% DCI-P3 colour coverage and a 60Hz refresh rate while supporting DisplayHDR™ True Black 500 and Dolby Vision®. This makes the X9 particularly attractive to professionals who value exceptional contrast, accurate colour reproduction and premium image quality.
Wireless connectivity includes Intel® Wi-Fi 7 BE201 802.11be 2×2 and Bluetooth® 5.4. Physical connectivity is streamlined around two Thunderbolt™ 4 / USB4 40Gbps ports with USB Power Delivery and DisplayPort™ 2.1, together with HDMI 2.1 and a 3.5mm audio combination jack.

The WUXGA configuration also incorporates ultrasonic human-presence detection.
The Aura Edition places particular emphasis on premium mobility. Its aluminium top and bottom construction measures just 311.8 × 212.3mm, with a profile ranging from 6.7mm to 17.18mm, while starting at only 1.21kg. A 55Wh battery is paired with a compact 65W USB-C Slim GaN power adapter.
