Isn't that pretty much every brand? I have yet to see a brand that someone doesn't complain about. Dell, Lenovo, asus, hp, etc. Literally every single brand. I follow these laptop posts religiously.
Thanks OP. Btw it's also touchscreen!
I used the old SD moto...Buy now and think later. Since it's not even in stock yet, I will have time to do my research. Great price if it ships.

I have been following these laptop posts for months. I can't believe the one I pull the trigger on is not posted by Dr. Wajahat.
Got this over a month ago. Very nice laptop. Antiglare ads a bit of that fuzz, but colors are incredibly accurate. Works really well. Charges fast and holds a charge a long time. Very nice laptop.

It's plenty small and light and I'm OK with the "thin and light" descriptor. BUT yeah, it feels a tad more chunky than I expected

I'm not sure where those extra 80grams (heavier than spec) came from. Error in listing and maybe that's the OLED version? Does the touch screen actually weigh more than oled? Stickers? (lol, probably less than a gram). Ultimately the extra grams are something I'm willing to live with if tit means the hinges hold up and I can carry it with one hand without it going all broken solder joints on me 3 months down the road.
Traditionally, touchscreen versions of laptops are thicker and heavier than their non-touch counterpart (everything else equal). Also OLED screens can be made a tad thinner than led screens (just look at oled tv vs led TV's), but I think it's the touchscreen is the main culprit. I am fine with it too (although I don't have it yet).

Quote from starsd :
I asked the same question earlier, based on the feedback that I got, this deal seems to be better. As my order from Amazon has no shipping date yet, I am keeping the Lenovo from Costco in its shipping box for now.
Why would you not open up the Lenovo Thinkpad to try it out? The box doesn't need to remain sealed in order to return to Costco and you have 90 days from the purchase date to return. They may open up the box anyways to validate a return.

On paper, I think the Acer in this thread is the better value. But you may find that the Thinkpad is better for your use case as it is has the 2 in 1 form factor, the build quality is probably better and it has 2x storage. For most everyday tasks, the better CPU in the Acer wouldn't make much of a difference. And I've always liked the trackpoint stick on Thinkpads and wondered why more laptop makers don't include a similar pointing stick as there shouldn't be a patent concern anymore.

I would say that if you really find the 2 in 1 form factor to be useful, then you may want to keep the Thinkpad. On the other hand, the Acer in this thread is a really good value for the deal price so you may also want to keep it and gift it to someone else in your family/household. For me, I have no use for 2 in 1, was specifically looking for an above average 14" WUXGA screen and 512GB storage is good enough for me (can always add external storage) so these factors as well as the better CPU in the Acer was why the Acer was better for my use case.

There are a few reviews/comments out there that indicate that there is a second M.2 slot under the flat battery cable. Needs to be confirmed still.

Its from all the bloatware and unnecessary Windows 11 apps - debloat or do a clean install of windows and it will match the spec Big Grin

Seriously, I agree with you, the laptop feels more 'substantial' than it looks - more dense & packed, was a bit surprised when I picked it up the first time. Weighed mine after seeing your post - 2.896 lb (1.314 kg), so mine is 2.18 oz (62 gms) over spec. No biggie, if its under 3 lbs - it meets my needs.

Hi when you did your clean install did you have to dl a bunch of drivers? I clean installed 11 and it felt like winxp all over again. (No touchpad drivers, rst storage, etc) Also, curious if you noticed the ram frequency going up and down. I checked in CPU-Z and it seems to be fluctuating

Clean install of Win11 home x64 from Microsoft via a USB drive.

Seeing dram fluctuating down to 1197mhz and then up to the expected 2400 within CPU-Z on battery

I also updated my bios to the latest 1.07

Typing this from my new laptop- love it! If you search this laptop's processor on Amazon, all the laptops on the first page with the Intel i7 is over $700. This laptop was a steal at ~$450. Sweet!

My laptop should be here on Tuesday. It's going to be a graduation gift. Does anyone know of any deals on MS Office?

I can live with the increase in weight. It's the increase in thickness over spec that is disappointing. I still think it's a great deal even though I haven't had a chance to play with it yet.

Just some initial observations after unboxing.

This laptop does not have a privacy shutter for the webcam. I thought all modern midrange and higher laptops came with one these days.

The included laptop sleeve is a nice gesture. II's good quality and worth $10-$15. It's like a phone manufacturer including an OEM case with their phone.
