Nice!.. Those specs are COOL!! Price isn't (too) high, it seems like desirable hardware, awesome!

47 whr battery is small considering its larger than the xps15

Hmm.... sounds pretty well outfitted for a laptop. The only thing I am concerned about is that thin laptops with NVidia graphics cards have a history of having overheating problems in them from what I have read on various gamer forums.
Have they fixed those issues? If so, this will be a very good investment for anyone.

Can it flip it around, or lay it flat?

There's one other detail worth mentioning, although it could just be my experience.

Several years ago, when the Zen line was introduced, I got one. I've since either personally bought or had close friends get a total of 8 Zen laptops.

My original model, as well as the 3 others purchased in that time frame all still work. In addition, the 2 bought within 2 years of those also still work.

However, both of the laptops purchased in the last two years have broken, one within 9 months of purchase (the earlier purchase), and the other 4 weeks after the purchase (the later purchase, broke before the other failed laptop).

Asus seems to have some pretty serious quality control issues these days.

CPU is overkill. The Dell with the GTX1050 is a lot cheaper with a decent quad core cpu
