Parts of this look neat... why do they refer to the memory as a fixed factor, though? Is this really a single-SKU product without configuration options?

Also, 16GB is not a lot of headroom for VM's etc... on a dev laptop.

Cursor arrow key layout fail.

Devs use cursor keys more than anyone and they didn't prioritise a layout you can easily hit with muscle memory. I know because my current laptop has a layout like this machine and it sucks

16GB RAM? Is it upgradable or can it be configured higher? If not, why in god's name would you have 16GB RAM as a selling point?

FHD at 14"? That's more than usable sure, but I'd prefer at least 2560x1440, preferably 2560x1600; A 16:9 aspect ratio is a pain in the ass.

4 years ago, these specs (if you can even call it that, we've been given almost no information) would have been decent. Now? This just seems desperate.

EDIT: I know this is quite critical. I like that there is a laptop out there from a traditional OEM, that is being supplied with Pop! OS. I just wish it was a better laptop, because the person looking for a laptop with Pop! OS is more than likely going to be looking for one with decent specs and may have enough additional income to spend on those specs. Other than the 1TB drive (I'm happy with 256GB in a lot of cases thanks to my NAS and streaming), this feels like the bare minimum specs for a laptop in 2022.

To be brutally honest, this looks like a very lame laptop.
