Oh, so does your PC fit in a backpack and can take it to classes at the university or in the airplanes? Does it work without being plugged to the wall too?
only 1 is soldered, and 16GB is good enough for 90% of the people. You can add another dimm to pair with the soldered one if you so wish.

Can you carry that with you and if you're going to say yes, where do you attach the monitor and power it?

I ordered a Asus VivoBook Pro 14x with i5-11300H, 14" 2.8K OLED 90hz 600nits screen, 16gb RAM, 512GB M.2 NVME, and RTX 3050 for $800. Would this deal have been a better one?
As with many things, it depends.

The screen on yours is nicer, but the processor and the GPU are significantly slower.

I just got mine from fedex and fired it up.
I am pretty happy with the little powerful machine. The display *may* not be as nice as the apple retina quality, but it is quite nice - fonts are crisp and colors are bright and sharp. the speakers sounds pretty full and rich. So don't be discouraged by the negative reviews or those who returned the product. Asus could have some quality control issues but just try it out and see how yours turns out.

Yeah, i guess it's all about whether its worth it to shell out extra $450 for 3060 and ryzen CPU and lose the OLED 2.8k screen

To everyone on the fence about 1080p vs QHD, QHD wins, trust me.. I've owned both, 1080p on QHD looks just as good as playing 1080p natively. You might lose some battery life but you gain better display in response time and color accuracy. Also QHD looks better on laptops for some reason. (Switching from 1080p 14inch previously)

Was supposed to be available for pickup yesterday. Now delayed. Chat said item unavailable. Due to high demand should be back in a week. I should have done shipping. Anyone else get theirs yet?

Mine was available for pick up on the 10th (even though it said the 11th originally), and I picked it up on the 11th.

​you can ask them to switch to shipping.
when i ordered, shipping was not available. pick up only. after placing the order, there was an option in order status to switch to shipping. but it is available only for a short period. you need to ask rep to switch if it is not available in order status.

Why would I do that when I clearly noted "I picked it up on the 11th"?

I ended up returning mine. While I like the form factor and features, I just didn't see a huge performance boost from my 2020 BF deal (Acer Nitro w/2060 for $699). Plus it ran a bit hot. Maybe I'll take a chance on the newer model when it comes down a bit in price.
