With that said, if this was $500 without the 3050, it'd be very tempting. The integrated 680m graphics on the 6800H is pretty darn good on its own!
Try to read some reviews instead of doing your guess work. I think you're just assuming all U series are low powered and all H series are power hungry, irrespective of the Processor brand, architecture or generation....I can understand bad effect of having a Laptop with Intel 12th Gen Power hungry monster. For Ryzen it is not true. Companies have released small 14" Ultrabooks with H series Ryzen 4000, 5000 and now 6000 H series Processors and pretty small battery compared to Intel laptops and they still do fine and better.

EDIT should mention that he just started his PhD, so raw power and low weight dragging it to and from class/lab/TAing every day far outweigh the display or GPU. BUT he wants bigger than a 14".

<p>What is your budget?</p>
Tho he is looking into his dept footing the bill, since he'd presumably be carrying it to conferences. He said that something about bringing his tech up to date was mentioned in his interviews/recruitment.
He ordered a pretty nice laptop from AWD during the recent 20% off promo, but as he's futzing with it, he says that out of the blue he lost bluetooth and device manager now can't even see a BT, so possibly getting RMA'd back to AWD.
