Compare conventional office, convertible touch and large-screen references. Select a form factor, then validate the exact build with your applications and peripherals.
Direct answer
Start with how the device will be used. M156FB provides a 15.6-inch Core i5 reference for conventional office briefs. J1 and R2 add touch and 360° positions in different display formats. P1 provides a conventional large-screen workspace; the current Core i3 reference is 17.5 inches and non-touch. These are platform directions, so approve the actual CPU, memory, storage, connections and software image before placing an order.
Platform shortlist
Evaluate for: Office and channel briefs that require a Core i5 reference. Validate the actual software image, workload and peripherals.
View M156FB specifications →
Evaluate for: Training, demonstrations and workflows that need touch and laptop, stand, tent or tablet positions.
View J1 specifications →
Evaluate for: Convertible requirements in a 15.6-inch format. Check the touch application, USB connections and charging package.
View R2 specifications →
Evaluate for: Desk-based documents and spreadsheets with a 16:10 workspace. P1 does not support 360° conversion.
View P1 specifications →Reference builds are starting points, not a live stock offer. CPU, RAM, storage, panel, ports and power must be confirmed for the selected version. S18D is currently bulk-only with no evaluation samples. For other conventional office references, review M156FH or S15.
Decision comparison
| Platform | Workspace / format | Reference starting point | Approval priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| M156FB | 15.6-inch 1920 × 1080 IPS; conventional notebook | Core i5-6200U / i5-6300U; 8GB / 16GB RAM; SSD by build | Actual office workload, storage and external connections |
| J1 | 16-inch 1920 × 1200 touch; 360° | Ryzen 3 3300U / 16GB DDR4 / 512GB SATA SSD reference | Touch application, working modes, board-specific ports and power |
| R2 | 15.6-inch 1920 × 1080 touch; 360° | Core i3-10100Y / 16GB DDR3 / 256GB SSD reference | Display size, hinge use, supplied charger and peripherals |
| P1 | Current Core i3: 17.5-inch 1920 × 1200; non-touch clamshell | Core i3-10100Y / 16GB DDR3 / 256GB SATA SSD reference | Desk space, final weight, monitor needs and keyboard layout |
Before approval
Use the same real tasks to compare shortlisted builds. Record the configuration and acceptance criteria so repeat orders have a clear baseline.
OEM & project options
Submit the target quantity, keyboard language, logo artwork and packaging scope with your hardware brief. Feasibility and MOQ depend on the selected platform and materials; the approved specification defines the order.
Buyer questions
Start with the M156FB Core i5 references, then review M156FH or S15 if their documented baseline fits your workload and capacity needs. Test the actual business applications, video calls and peripherals; a processor family or memory figure alone does not establish suitability.
J1 has a 16-inch 1920 × 1200 IPS touch reference; R2 has a 15.6-inch 1920 × 1080 IPS touch reference. Both support 360° positions. Compare the proposed CPU, ports, power package, weight and application behaviour for the exact builds.
P1 is a conventional clamshell and does not support 360-degree conversion. The current Core i3 reference has a 17.5-inch 1920 × 1200 non-touch display. Other P1 marketing uses the 17.6-inch class, so confirm the panel for the selected version.
Ask us to check availability for the chosen model and configuration. Selected available builds may be supplied for evaluation, with cost, preparation and delivery confirmed in the quotation. S18D is currently bulk-only and has no evaluation samples.
Logo, boot presentation, packaging and keyboard language can be evaluated against quantity and platform feasibility. Confirm the artwork, character layout, backlighting if required, licensed OS image and destination plug before approval.
Repeat-order continuity is reviewed against motherboard and component availability. Keep an approved specification and change-control baseline; any proposed configuration change is confirmed before supply.
Document availability depends on the exact platform, configuration and destination. Ask for the applicable model-specific documents before order confirmation; one model’s document set does not automatically cover another build.
The standard ODM/OEM laptop policy is a 12-month limited warranty from shipment for confirmed manufacturing defects. Start with remote diagnosis and obtain RMA authorisation before return. Freight responsibilities, coverage and any chargeable work are confirmed before dispatch or repair.
Include the business applications, device count, display and touch needs, monitors or docks, destination, keyboard language, branding and required date.
