A brightness of 500 cd/m2, or nits, is available in the screen.

There's an option of using the Type-C USB ports, with 2 x Thunderbolt 3 (Supports Power Delivery) 1 x USB 3.1 / USB 3.2 Gen 2 (Supports DisplayPort) ports being offered too, allowing both the use of almost any current peripheral, but also adaptors & dongles allowing use of additional ports for the laptop.

The option of the fingerprint reader gives you login & security flexibility, by allowing you to sign in to your laptop with just the tip of your finger.

Don't fret about your wired headphones though, the 3.5mm headphone jack will let you plug right in.
