Thanks to Community Member Suryasis for sharing this deal.
I purchase this laptop about a month ago and at the same time purchased a 2TB Samsung 990 Pro to replace the stock 1TB. I couldn't get the Samsung cloning software to work until I turned off bitlocker. Because this laptop comes with Windows 11 Pro bitlocker is enabled by default. Not sure if you purchase an SSD from another brand if it will have the same issue so just be aware if you plan on installing a larger SSD.
I'd normally complain about soldered RAM, but not at 64GB. And it's LPDDR5X, BTW.
RAM is super high quality, runs at CL18. For reference, this is about half the latency of normal DDR5.
Screen is very nice, it's actually a 90Hz panel that they crippled to 60Hz with software. You need to use Custom Resolution Utility CRU to actually run it at 90Hz.
Battery life is mediocre though. Requires significant tweaking to make it decent. Probably around 6 hours before tweaks.
Overall it's a solid setup as long as ultra long battery life isn't your #1 priority.

To limit the power to 5W normally and 10W boost when unplugged.
Won't make a difference unless you're doing video editing or something else super demanding, in which case you'd need to plug it in anyway.
How did you do this? When I am in UXTU there are APU power tuning settings as follows: STAPM Power Limit (W), Slow Power Limit (W), and Fast Power Limit (W). Thank you
Edit: n/m found the setting under automations (can choose diff custom preset when plugged in)
