This is a machine directly aimed at people who value lightweight, portable and reasonably long lasting machines and it is at least on paper perfect for that. Its only competition in terms of weight are LG gram and Samsung Books and this should have miles better screen than LG and much better cpu for it's use case than the Intel in Samsung's. Is it the fastest machine in the world? No, but most laptops with faster CPUs weigh twice as much and if they are gaming capable 3 times as much.
On the other hand, this is one of the best APUs you can get so some casual gaming should be fine. Also you can get an external GPU which you can sell and upgrade and use when you are plugged in rather than it adding weight and power consumption whenever you are taking it around. I mean sure you can also build a 30L desktop for half as much if direct performance is what you primarily value and blow this out of the water but have fun lugging that around. This sounds like an amazing machine for what 90% of the people primarily use laptops for.
This is a zen 4 8core/16thread cpu with the fastest igpu on the market, which is more than capable of running AAA titles @ 1080p low/medium settings 60fps.
Its efficiency based for battery and portability. and paired to an 120hz OLED screen.
It is not a "gaming laptop" that requires a dedicated gpu.
They had a version of this last year, with the Ryzen 6800u chipset. The reviews were that the keyboard was awful. I type all day, so I didn't bother. Reviews of this current model stated that the key travel had been increased, and they added a 10-key. I went ahead and purchased when it was on sale in July for $1,100.
There aren't a ton of products available with this Ryzen 7840u chipset. I've been using for about a month now, and I've generally enjoyed the computer.

No discrete GPU
My laptop needs: 120hz 16 inch oled screen. Extreme light weight.

But I compared it to the LG Grams, which I'd been using for several years. The closest alternative product is probably the LG Gram Style 16, but it costs about $600 or $700 more. In short, there's no way that I think the Gram Style is worth the price disparity.
If you want a large form factor, light weight, and OLED screen, this is the way to go. My caveat is that I am NOT a gamer. I use this for casually browsing the internet and working in Office. And for those purposes, it's been great. Definitely quieter and cooler than the 12th gen Intel chipset, which is what I had been using (LG Gram 16).
That said, I do prefer the LG keyboard as it still travels a bit more. This one is not horrible though.
Good luck.
Yes for Roblox and Minecraft

Not the most ringing endorsement, what are your issues?
Ahem, you are getting a QHD 120Hz OLED screen (pretty much the sweet spot between picture quality and efficiency), the newest Ryzen mobile CPU which is also the most efficient and reasonably fast CPU you can get other than paying double for an M1/2 Mac (which even in the air edition doesn't compare with the portability).
