I have this laptop and I was also the OP for the previous front page deal. I am using it for about 2 months now, and I plan to leverage/exploit (if you want to put it that way) full 90 days Costco return policy and then return it on 90th day (may be few days sooner).

The reason I am so upset to teach them a lesson is they have 2 different BIOS in this laptop. And at least on mine, I got unlucky. No key combination activates advanced BIOS settings (tried all and even posted on reddit laptop subreddit, and people confirmed). This is ridiculous. I cannot install any other OS as Linux Grub won't work. It literally jumps into Windows 11. I am very pissed. I know 99% of people won't need to install Ubuntu/Linux. I still won't recommend them personally.

EDIT: Few more pet peeves:

1. This laptop has ridiculously low volume. Even at max, I struggle to hear if the room is not completely silent.
2. The display is very dim. It is supposed to be 350 nits. May be I am spoiled with all the other laptops in our family (high end office MacBook, ~$2000 DELL XPX). But even when considering really cheap Samsung Flex 2 Alpha that I bought for my twins last year, Flex 2 Alpha has a brighter display.
3. Battery life is good but could have been better. Getting around 7 to 8 hours I believe. The Lenovo Yoga 7i 16" with Intel discrete graphics (i.e., 100w battery version) is much heavier but gets 10+ hours battery life. That's what I am waiting to buy.

I also have this laptop from the previous deal and I really like it and while I don't disagree with the previous poster, screen has been plenty bright and audio fine for my uses. I won't pretend those are perfect, but it's fine. I've found it to be light, great battery life, and the touchscreen works very well - which i use often for projects. If I didn't need the touchscreen, I'd definitely go for the 17", which is all around a better computer, but for specific use cases like mine, I'm really liking it.


I'm a big fan of the Gram lineup and this is my 4th one. They have proven durable machines that do what I need them to do: be light, fast and have good battery life. If you need top tier specs, look elsewhere. For ultralight business travel, nothing else competes except the xps line.

Why are so many of these laptops touch screen?
