this is becoming an insanely good deal. it was a good deal at 399, better at 349. and now 299? it's one of those slickdeals i'm tempted to buy even though i dont need it!
I am sure if you wait even more till 2021 or better 2022 BF, there will be even better electronics. 😛
Review for the laptop [notebookcheck.net]

Seems to be 2 M.2 slots and 1 DDR4.

But this laptop doesn't charge via USB-C does it?
I purchased one of the USB C power adapters linked in the wiki.

does anyone have a recommendation on a 65w+ usb C charger that also have a regular usb port? I need one to also charge my phone and BT headset so I don't have to carry two chargers

The one in this thread wiki only have usb C out.

How about this one? Sucks the cables are not included but it does have usb C and regular usb port:

https://www.amazon.com/AUKEY-Char...NrPXRydWU=
I haven't tried that Aukey, but I suspect it won't work because it'll probably drop the USB C port to 15V/3A (45w) when you have a phone plugged in.

You'll want to look for a 75 watt charger or higher

EDIT: I did try the ZeroLemon charger (https://www.amazon.com/ZEROLEMON-ZeroLemon-Portable-Power-Banks/dp/B0719DM4DT/), and can confirm that it will do 60w over USB C while using the USB A ports, but I got it when it was $30. It's also not super compact, but is cheaper than most others with the same capability.

Bricked after shoddy 1.06 update. It was running smooth while it lasted.
This is the first time I heard of a device being bricked by 1.06

I ordered the same charger just now. also got a 100W 20gbps usb C cable good for 5K video signal: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...UTF8&psc=1

These things are definitely not cheap...lol.. but at least now, I can carry one charger for everything.

I'm going to try to revive it with a BIOS programmer.

I just want to say, before people come in defense of Walmart saying that this isn't ethical, that Walmart has been destroying communities, particularly small businesses for decades, and many of their employees are on welfare. So exploit them as much as you can.

fark Walmart.

I agree that Walmart should stand behind the product, but what you call out Walmart on, has absolutely nothing to do with this particular device and experience. What you speak of is endemic in all large corporations these days, and gets into corporate governance changes that are very much needed.

To add some more data to your research:

The chassis for the Motile Ryzen 5 is the TONGFANG PF4 model.

There are 3 models that I have found so far using this chassis:

PF4WN2F - Intel Core I5/MX250 graphics
(https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/no...ionIII-14/)

PF4MN2F - Intel Core i7 8th/10th/MX250 graphics
https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/no...sionIV-14/

PF4PU1F - AMD Ryzen 5/Vega 8
(used by Motile - haven't confirmed if Ryzen 3 is same model number)

I have seen screenshots of the insides of the 14" Intel models and some have dual cooling fans.
I would love to get my hands on that and modify it for this AMD model Smilie

Our chassis also has a BIG brother 15" model (WITH A 91wh battery that I was hoping would fit the 14" chassis):
PF5WN2G - Intel Core i7 8th/MX250 graphics (Eluktronics sells this as the Mag-15u)
PF5MN2G - Intel Core i7 10th/MX250 graphics (Mag-15u, etc)
PF5CP5G - Intel Core i7 9th/GTX1650 graphics/4k (I want this one Smilie )

Mag-15u battery 91.24WH:
PFIDG-03-17-3S2P-0

Motile laptop battery 46.74WH:
PF4WN-00-13-3S1P-0


Anndddd I'm spent Smilie
I believe the 62whr (15.2v 4100maH) battery one can find if they search for GK5CN-00-13-4S1P-0 I'd the more viable upgrade. The 91whr seems a bit too long to fit the current Motile chassis.

That's a nice upgrade capacity but $80-90 for the battery ;(

Can someone please direct me to the user manual?

I checked the website listed on the quick start guide, but it just shows products. Looked on the product page, and didn't see it. I see in the wiki of this post - it says manual at bottom,... but I still don't see it. Thanks!

You have to switch to viewing the forum thread, then you'll be able to see the attachment at the bottom.

The user manual isn't particularly useful though.

FYI for those who game and have overheating issues: there's a space and mounting holes for the second fan, probably used in more powerful i7 or R7 models.
What fan would work?
