​-Great QLED Screen

-Heavier with great build quality
-Great value on sale
Pro 360
-SAMOLED - Touchscreen

Pro
-AMOLED - NO Touchscreen
-USB-C Charging
-Clamshell
-Lightest, relatively speaking
-Great value if you need USB-C Charging

For me, the Pro is the best option with USB C charging (charge and send signal to monitor at the same time) that isn't more expensive because it is clamshell only. For me, I don't need another tablet / stylus device. The biggest downsides of the Pro seem to be poor audio and a chassis that flexes on the 15" model. I've heard the 13" seems more firm.

I believe I saw on another thread that it is soldered. Was hoping for upgradeable like the Galaxy Book Ion 15" from last year.

I have no idea whether this computer is that great. From what I can tell, not much difference between i5 and i7. Also seems like some goofy build-quality issues. Out of the Alpha2, the Pro, and the Pro 360 which is the one to get?

very light weighted. i am not sure AMOLED is a plus or not as my eye is sensitive to low pwm flickering.
