Display was beautiful. Finger print scanner worked great. And I loved the chassis; it felt solid and very high quality.
It did feel sluggish when opening new programs, like it was running strictly on e-cores and took maybe 2 seconds to get the p-cores running. That explanation sounds kind of ridiculous even to me though, so I'm not sure what the deal was. After a couple seconds the new application seemed to run beautifully. This persisted even after a clean OS install and updating all of the drivers/firmware.
Gaming on this laptop blew my mind. I can't believe how far iGPUs have come in the past 2 years. Obviously not as good as a dGPU, but for a 3lb laptop it's pretty amazing how far they've come. I'm playing legit modern 3D games on a non-gaming computer.
It's also worth noting that this laptop has a second m.2 slot on the motherboard, so you can add more storage without needing to reinstall the OS.
RAM is soldered though since nobody has mentioned that yet (we should really just assumed it's soldered on any ultrabook at this point).
In the end I returned it because I realized I needed 32GB of RAM. I also liked the 8845HS chip that my new laptop has better than the 155H.
