Despite its light weight, Fujitsu emphasizes the reliability of the design and is proud that the device was assembled entirely in Japan. FMV Note U has been tested to meet the MIL-810H standard, which ensures its resistance to various external influences, including drops, vibrations, temperature and humidity changes.
Notably, the FMV Note U offers a wide range of ports, which is rare in ultra-thin laptops. On the left side there are two Thunderbolt 4 ports, USB-A, a 3.5 mm audio jack, as well as charging and activity indicators. On the right is a slot for microSD cards, another USB-A port, an HDMI connector, and even Ethernet. In addition, Wi-Fi 7 is supported, which adds even more versatility to the device.
The hardware is also impressive. Despite the fact that the maximum thickness of the laptop is only 17.3 mm, an Intel Lunar Lake processor, 16 or 32 GB of RAM, and SSD drives ranging from 256 GB to 2 TB are installed inside. The device can work up to 36 hours on a single charge and, in addition, the kit includes a compact Anker Nano II 65W charger weighing only 112 grams, emphasizing the lightness of the laptop itself.
Fujitsu is also highlighting the AI capabilities of the FMV Note U, powered by a 47 TOPS processor. The built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU) accelerates applications such as noise reduction, Live Captions, image generation, and Microsoft Recall. For now, the FMV Note U series is only available in Japan, with pricing and global sales information coming at a later date.
