i swear being able to open with one hand is so useless and a lot of the time means looser hinges. Im happy when you can't open it with one hand lol

It just depends on your lifestyle. Most student probably going to hold something in their other hand so opening a laptop with one hand is really useful. A good laptop can make a hinges that last for ages even if you can open it one hand or two hand.

AMD is just a little behind the X Elite in performance and battery life despite the hype, and pricing is similar. Factor in that next month, we will see a new Strix, and consumers should be wary of the billion-dollar marketing push by Qualcomm and MS. The 14-inch is £900 in the UK for 1TB/16GB with the same display (no other display option or 16-inch). If you mainly use an external display at home or work, then this seems to be of excellent value.

Because it's a fresh entry in the market. Intel and AMD have a long history in PCs, unlike Qualcomm Snapdragon. Over time they will get more accessible

[@hilmyakatsuki1665]

@@zUltra3D the problem is they never released any cheap CPU for the gen one. Maybe with gen 2 or 3? So can't blame the laptop OEMs on this. I hope AMD comes up with something cheaper yet better battery backup and better performance like Ryzen AI 300 but for budget/mid range laptops.

Been waiting for a review of this laptop, do you recon the 14" version will perform similarly? I've been eyeing the 14" OLED model for a while now. Even though it's not a gaming laptop I'd have loved to see more gaming benchmarks of games that people are playing on mobile devices, maybe take a look at the "Most played on steam deck" page. Love your reviews, just some thoughts I had watching this!

[@zeiadabdelrahman5924]

Everywhere I look it's the normal IPS be it the 14 or 16", where does one even find that OLED model? The IPS has 45% NTSC which I feel isn't the best for drawing and such

[@martinytcz1762]

I own the 14' OLED model and the display is absolutely gorgeous, 100% DCI-P3 coverage and the laptop itself weighs less than the IPS version. The iGPU is comparable to a Max-Q 1050Ti perf-wise, so operate on that assumption and you'll be fine.
