Pressure applied to one spot on the display back is passed on very quickly to the screen.

It is almost impossible to twist, probably thanks to the metal wrist rest. The wrist rest can hardly be dented except in the center using stronger pressure. The base unit's underside dents only in the DVD drive area, which is a common weak point that should not cause many problems during everyday use. Otherwise, the casing's build is impeccable. There are no conspicuous gaps or sharp edges.

They allow opening with one hand, but also have a bit of play so that the display wobbles slightly in shaky environments (for example on the train).
