The genCART Laptop Air is the result of engineering everything as one. M-class silicon delivers desktop-grade performance, the edge-to-edge OLED display reproduces 100% of DCI-P3, and the 22-hour battery means you leave the charger at home. Over three weeks of rigorous daily usage, we found it completely silent under load, with keyboard ergonomics that surpass its closest competitors.
