Alpha 2
​-Great QLED Screen
-No USB Charging
-No Pen
-No 15" option
-2 in 1
-Heavier with great build quality
-Great value on sale
Pro 360
-SAMOLED - Touchscreen
-USB-C Charging
-Most feature packed
-2 in 1
-Included Pen
-Most Expensive
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.

Dang! Nothing "Pro" about 8gb ram… my Flex2 Alpha has 16gb ram… if it ever gets delivered. 😐

8gb ram?!

Is it upgradeable? Soldered? So hard to see stuff on their website…

Was deciding between this and the LG Gram 6 months ago. Ended up with the LG Gram.
So far it's a pretty solid and lightweight machine.

All hardware specs are great, but not being able to upgrade the RAM is a no go for me. You open 3 or 4 programs and you are out of RAM already Frown

Help me out here if u know... Is it worth to trade in my tab s7 towards this bundle? S7 is fairly new, 8gb ram, 512gb ssd... It knocks off 475, the price of the bundle comes down to about 250. I'm in need of a pc laptop for my school. Basically i have to pay extra for a slower machine plus the earbuds

If that is really your deciding factor then go ahead and cancel. Pro 100% is not touchscreen.

Quote from dirtbag88 :
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?
i7 is the better deal for $200 you get double the RAM, i7 has faster clocks and 50% more cache, and more GPU cores. RAM isnt user upgradable, so its better to get the 16GB now than wish you had it later

As for build quality, these rival $1000 laptops. Not the best but they are well above average.
