Still waiting for my amd framework Laptop. They said early Q3. It would be the perfect machine for some nice summer coding on my balcony :*)

For those unaware, this isn't AMDs top of the line laptop chip, but the top of the line ultra low power laptop chip.

It's meant for ~15W thin and light devices, not thick gaming laptops, AMD has 35W parts for those.

Idk if this is too OT but I wonder how it would fare with an ambient temp of 37°C (forecast for today).

Sadly no M2 comparisons (I know they are a Linux site)

So when are Lenovo Thinkpads with such chips coming out?

It's a pretty big difference! Often 20+% on the benchmarks. I have the previous gen CPU in my ThinkPad and it's the quietest, most pleasant laptop I have ever had. All Intel ones I dealt with are like old fridge in comparison (loud and hot outside).
