Good thing WIFI and NVMe remain upgradable, vendors really know no shame whent it comes to putting in the cheapest crap possible there.

I swapped my latest Mediatek after it delivered 40Mbytes/s in my WIFI6 setup vs. 180MByte/s on an AX100. What's the use of theoretical WIFI7 support when WIFI6 is already abysmal? And I'm not a fan of host-buffered QLC drives, which tend to deliver mid-range PCIe v3 speeds at peak on a PCIe v4 interface and are simply inappropriate at this price point.

They put less than €1000 of value in these things so there is no way I'm buying one until prices come in range. They are nice machines, but the price vs. performance deltas generation by generation are getting ridiculous.

2240x1400 is such a weird resolution...
What was so wrong with 2560x1600?
my only guess is they did it to match the pixel pitch of the digitizer so the screen wouldn't look grainy.

All that nice specs and no fullhd screen. What is that 4k on 13" laptop for? Just sacrificing the battery life for nothing...
