I hope they continue the Motile line. If they review our posts Gen 2 should be be a better system.
despite that, i was able to get to the RAM and successfully installed 16 GB RAM. this is what i installed...

laptop recognizes it.."Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 16.0 GB"
is there anything i should set different to get optimal performance?
i also got a wifi card to swap out, but there appears to be a screw i need to loosen that holds it in place. i'm tempted to try to get to it...gonna hold off until i can completely remove the bottom panel.

What various issues are you getting. Please describe as it will be useful for us to know too. thanks.
I have personally tested two different R5 ones. I am running clean installed w10 with latest amd chipset and graphic drivers from amd site.
Two issues i have and they were both on the two R5 i tested
1. Once a while, selecting restart in windows will place it in a hang state where after it shows the blue screen saying restarting then it goes to the black screen after that but will not go to the boot screen. So it basically stop continuing on the restart sequence after that. Then i have to press the power button and hold it down to shut off to turn on.
2. HDMI output is very temperatmental. with ext monitor blanking out intermittently. Sometimes happened when playing video with chrome, other time it just happened without chrome. Sometimes it works perfectly and sometimes it doesn't.
ditto. This thing is limited to single channel ram as well as 2400 so you are not gonna be able to get the best speed out of vega or improve it by adding more ram (unless your applications really need more ram).. also i tested using 2133 vs 2666 ram with userbenchmark. nothing really changed under the cpu and gpu marks. memory bench does obviously shows some difference. Summary: using 2133 vs 2400 vs 2666 memory on this thing won't make any real world difference.

I think i agree the QC on this leaves much to be desired. It seems not so much on the construction itself as i haven't heard anyone says theirs comes undone. I think a lot of the bad stuffs comes in the form of the compnonents being suboptimal. no matter how well it's put together, if the components are craps to start with, thing won't run well.
black ryzen 5 model.
screen is good, keyboard is good, mouse good, back-light good, performance is good.
laptop is light and feels great.
for $300; I doubt there is a better value.
