The potential for hinge problems down the line is really the only thing holding back a purchase for me.
Folks have said they've had problems with other Dells using the same hinge design.
Yes, by that means its quite similar to these graphic cards? I dont have much idea about gaming laptops, just looking to buy a decent laptop under 800-900$
Thoughts on this laptop as a productivity laptop only? I don't game. At all. Am I wasting my money by getting it? I just want a fast PC.
if you don't game dont get this laptop. only because the battery life will suck. unless you leave it plugged in all the time. doesn't even mention screen refresh rate so maybe 60hz?

Thanks, but won't I be able to play games like GTA V and far cry 4 in flex 5 even after connecting with external cooling fan or so?
You should be able to do both, 1080p 60-80 FPS https://youtu.be/5y1tI8fm6OI
Note that recording gameplay drops FPS about 10/15%, so what you see should be higher during actual gameplay

About the same, not sure if the Ryzen 5 would bottleneck it tho. But for 100 more I'd get a MSI w 2060 and 120Hz screen

There's no official benchmarks out yet but the rumor is that it's close 2060 max-q.
