How did they manage this?  Well, they blatantly copied the Macbook in design.  It is effectively a Windows version of the Macbook and it handles all the basics you need.

New 8th Gen Processors, 3K display that is practically bezel-free, 15 hour maximum battery life, super portable at 2.9 lbs and super slim, better than Apple keyboard and all the other design elements that are copied from Apple.

Webcam though is sub-par, but most people put a sticker over those anyway.

Get the i7 model if you want performance, and some light gaming.  Both are great for general office, school, netflix, youtube.
