It consists of software "Adobe Premiere Pro" that supports editing etc. However, the license must be purchased separately.

There is a demand for editing 8K video on a large screen. We had envisioned an all-in-one system, but we developed an 8K video editing system because of the demand for carrying around and checking edited data.”

Also, he pointed out that ``mobile notebook PCs are suitable for carrying around, but their performance is not as good as desktop PCs.'' We do,” says Kumagai. The 8K video editing system has the role of complementing both of these shortcomings.

The base configuration of the dynabook Z95 is pre-installed with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit and equipped with a 10th Gen Intel Core i7 processor. The main memory is 32GB (16GB x 2), and the SSD is standardly equipped with 1TB (PCIe compatible). Supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax + a/b/g/n/ac compliant) and Bluetooth 5.0.

It weighs about 1.425kg and has a battery life of about 11 hours.

The GPU Box is equipped with a desktop graphics card "NVIDIA Quadro RTXTM 4000" that contributes to faster rendering for video editing. The interface is a Thunderbolt 3 port that supports Power Delivery up to 85W, PCI Express 3.0 (4 lanes) x4, PCIe slot (x16 mechanical). The size is about 35.7x13.5x26.6cm (width x depth x height), and the weight is about 4.0kg.
