Very happy to see a 4K display. Framework take note!
that's actually one thing I don't like but they're essentially forcing you to go 4k for the 10khz pwm. otherwise, why would you want a resolution you're going to scale to 150% or even 200% anyway just to be able to read it anywhere outside? ... and eating into your battery
They aren’t US based right? Does that mean tariffs for US shipping? Are these a good pick for a non-programmer who is interested in Linux but intimidated by it?
Looks generic, and has the stereotypical abysmal keyboard and trackpad as any laptop made in the past 10+ years. Put this in a room with a few other laptops and it'd be hard to pick it out from the crowd. The only thing it has going for it are the raw specs, but it's eventually marred by the price for what is a poor typing and trackpad experience.

Would you like to have a version with a TrackPoint even if you have managed to live without it? With all these boutique laptop brands, I hope that one of them will eventually produce a pointing stick keyboard offer a route off Lenovo.
I feared that I would miss it too much, but after a week I stopped reaching for it with my finger.

Lol these are the most refined Linux flagship hardware manufacturers in the world. No clone.
If your definition of refinement is "looks like a Macbook", sure. Personally, if I wanted a laptop that looks like a Macbook, I'd buy a Macbook.

This is satire, right?
No, AI capabilities of some sort are obviously important. But I know a lot of people don't appreciate that. But you aren't seriously suggesting that graphics hardware is irrelevant are you?

Except that if you want to save on RAM you'll also have to pick the lower resolution screen and lower rated CPU. These aren't easy upgrades later on.
Still better than no upgrades at all like on Apple land, back to the 8 and 16 home computer days, only external upgrades and cable salad.
I’m unable to order this laptop without a charging brick which is now illegal in the EU. Same goes for the standard one year warranty. Should be two at minimum. I had my country configured to Belgium while testing this.
