And the soldered ram is lame. You can add more, but only 16gb will be dual(quad?) channel, but you can add a 32gb stick for 40gb max.
The ram is DDR5, so I believe each stick runs in dual channel already. The mismatching sticks might mean they won't run in quad channel which I think wouldn't be noticeable outside benchmarks? I could be wrong...but I feel this comes up all the time lol.
Either way, you are losing performance, BUT after watching some videos, it's not as extreme as ddr4 losses.
This is the cut down version of the M16. FHD instead of QHD, 3060 instead of 3070ti, 8GB ram instead of 16GB, etc.

Now my main complaint, and why I returned mine, is the FHD screen is kinda...lame. It doesn't look quite sharp and the colors seem a bit duller compared to the 1440p version of this laptop. Sooo yeah. Personally I'd opt for a 1440p 120hz+ and that's what I did.

it's still quite better than the latter.

Since you said "...will always look lame..." is their a technical reason for that?
