Could this be your next laptop purchase? Sure does look and sound great.
Some you may have missed, popular articles from the last month:
Quoting: cameronboschFwpud also worked well on my unit. I did the recent BIOS update through the command-line with no issues.
So, the latest firmware fixed something noticeable for me.
The original firmware, if I plugged the laptop into my phone charger (a 20W usb-c thing), or the steam deck charger, it would just say the charger isn't powerful enough and not charge AT ALL.
Now, it charges happily from the phone charger.
Very happy about that.
Also received a firmware update for the fingerprint reader that fixes a local-access security flaw. Had to re-enroll my fingerprints to get it to work again.
I also recently got Cyberpunk2077 and playing it on an external 4k monitor. It basically never drops below 30fps, so feels very smooth, even though its consistently below 60fps. Regardless of that, the game is very enjoyable.
