I upgraded the wi-fi/bluetooth chip to an Intel ax200 (~$15 on ebay) and stuck 16GB of RAM in it. Overall, I couldn't be more pleased with the Motile. I haven't messed with any BIOS updates because everything is functioning well. I will eventually add another SSD if/when I need more space. The major selling point for me was ~2.5lbs, 6.5-8hr battery, very thin/portable, price, and quite powerful if you're not expecting to do any gaming. The big question mark is support of the unit, but I guess I'm a bit of a gambler as the alternative isn't that appealing either (trying to compel a 'name brand' mfg to honor their 1 or 2 year warranty).
I will try to update if I encounter any issues.
no point trying bios update. that's asking for trouble if everything working good.
It;s actually my go to laptop now.
Price has now gone up to $420 for M142 and only rose gold color remains. Is this coming to an end?
For example: the AMD software let me define a 16:10 2560x1600 60Hz 8-bit resolution via HDMI that's the native resolution for my 30" Dell U3011 monitor: before I could only get 1920x1200 max.
Note that the software looks like it allows you to overclock your CPU and GPU and really screw things up if you don't know what you're doing so use at your own risk.
To get the software go to https://www.amd.com/en/support/
From the pull-down menus select:
"Processors with graphics" > "AMD Ryzen™ Processors" > "AMD Ryzen™ (3 or 5) Mobile Processors with Radeon™ Vega Graphics" > (Your Processor)
Download and run the installation file ("win10-radeon-software-adrenalin-2020-edition-20.2.2-mar5.exe" - I think it's the same software for both Motile laptops but not 100% sure.)
Install and enjoy.

The first thing i did with mine was uninstalling the default amd drivers and install both the latest chipset and video drivers from amd. then i did windows update.
If you just run your motile with only the default drivers out of the box, it WILL crash and lock up.
And if you already using the latest drivers and it's still crash, most likely a defective product and should be returned. bios updates likely won't fix it.
Too bad the new $420 price is not as nice! ;(

most likely returns? YMMV. hopefullly they are just returns with no significant problem or maybe they are? lol.. cheap price though
Not sure if this is the best place for this question, but I couldn't find a Motile tech support site.
Thank you.

The support site is listed in the wiki, you might also try Reddit too.

keys might not work well if you got stuffs getting underneath the key which seems easy on the motile?
Perhaps Windows is waking up to do updates or something.
Maybe this will help:
"Turn off Wake timers. To do that, open Settings > System > Power & Sleep > Additional Power Settings > Change Plan Settings > Change Advanced Power Settings. Under Allow Wake Timers, select Important Wake Timers Only."

question for all:
why does my computer freeze when watching youtube on edge on battery? I think it is only when on battery. It froze during the movie two times today when being cooled and connected via hdmi to a tv. like total windows lockup only restart will fix.
also noticed thislaptop can freeze or shut off if u move it or place it too fast.
hey at least im playing apex legends on it at 30 fps.

If that doesn't fix it then your computer is probably defective.
