16GB is a little low to be honest.

It's $398 more for the version with 32GB but it also includes the i9 which is not necessary in this chassis as there really is not enough thermal headroom in these types of machines for an i9 to show any benefit.

The 32gb i9 version also has 3k resolution instead of 1200p.

I wish they had a i7 version with 32gb and 1200p display. That would give the best battery life.

60hz is ridiculous for such a high end.

The Lunar Lake version of this thing is going to be awesome. I can't wait for it to (first come out and then) go on sale during Black Friday 2025.
If's you're ok with the poor (now we need to call it poor after Snapdragon X and Lunar Lake came out) battery life, and want dual screens now, this is the best dual screen laptop on the market currently. I'll wait a 13 months, but if I needed it now, I'd jump on it and upgrade next year.

Found someone selling the i9 version locally for this price. I really like this form factor, it feels like all laptops should be made this way, where you can use it as a normal laptop, but have the versatility and productivity of dual displays while retaining a limited footprint. That being said, even though this feels like a quality machine, I do think it could be improved. Definitely not for everyone, and I think putting the processor with the keyboard as a block would make more sense, where you could then make a single bendable/foldable display that could be oriented vertically or horizontally, would be better. I think HP has one like that, but its quite a bit more expensive and is likely more fragile). Lenovo has a similar machine, worse specs for the price, but its hinge offers full 360 movement I believe (this one doesn't, at best its a skewed 180; I think they did it to make it feel better as a laptop and it likely is better to keep the upper display from just bending over the back when propped up).

I think they'd do better if they put the normal Lunar Lake chips (instead of the higher spec ones that this model has) in for the 2nd gen. Performance would be good enough plus it'll help battery life (probably good thing for dual OLED display), while keeping heat and power use lower. Would let them also possibly increase the battery size, or go with thinner battery to make it thinner (it is a bit chonky, feels like a late 2000s/ early 2010s laptop). If they put the CPU in the upper display to balance things (its pretty asymmetrical, where the upper display is quite thin, arguably a bit flimsy, and then the lower is in the main body and so quite a bit thicker), could increase the battery even more (plus move the heat off the lap, should make it easier to dissipate the heat too). Possibly even could allow them to do a dGPU.

GPD has a dual display laptop thing that is also interesting, and while there are things it has that I like (Oculink, Ethernet, 2nd display has input so can operate as a normal external display from another device), it is less versatile and I believe even chonkier (this feels like a late 2000s laptop, the GPD looks like late 90s or early 2000s laptop in chonkiness). Its also even more expensive ($2K I believe).

Even though I wouldn't want to see the price, I'd love to see Apple make one of these and I think they'd be very popular with Mac users, especially graphic artists and the like. Dual displays is an actual Pro feature, and this is a smart way to integrate it, and if it brought Pencil support to Mac it'd be pretty huge. Supposedly there's a larger (20") foldable iPad Pro that might show up in like 2027.

Oh as for uses, I've gotten so used to dual displays that I find normal laptops cramped. But I tend to watch YouTube or something while doing other things (photo editing, browsing the web). This let's me sketch on the bottom display while having something play on the top display (ADHD) instead of how I've been operating (watching YouTube on my phone while sketching on tablet, or watching on tablet while browsing web on my phone). This increased the capability/usability while keeping the overall size svelte and portable enough. It would be really good even not portable (for that reason I wish they'd have drilled VESA holes into the kickstand piece so could mount it and let you rotate it more easily, plus with the way the keyboard splits off means you could have that flat on your desktop). This also replaced my current desktop (which was very old, think about a decade for CPU/GPU), giving me a single computing device (pros and cons, it works better for me though).

Isn't this the "Lunar Lake version"? I thought the 'Intel Core Ultra 7' was a Lunar Lake? Sorry, I'm not very up to date on processor naming convention. anyone know?

It is, they probably meant Raptor Lake, the new one

No, this is the meteor lake version. Lunar lake starts with the number 2 and ends with a V, like 256V or 258V.

AI disagrees with you. it says "According to current information, Lunar Lake is a newer processor than Raptor Lake; Lunar Lake is considered the next generation of Intel processors following Raptor Lake, primarily designed for mobile devices and featuring significant advancements in AI capabilities and integrated graphics"

So we still don't have a reliable answer then...

It's not like i9 is the full blow high performance variant to begin also there is plenty of thermal headroom even running it full tilt (source: I've been using it as my daily since it was released)

This is by far my favorite laptop to daily (and yes i have a MBP at home). It goes with me everywhere.
I have the i9 version and can't wait for 2nd gen version of it
There are few quirks with like occasional brightness difference between top and bottom screen. It could be the charger but it sometimes doesn't like generic USB-C charger with high power delivery and constantly flips back and fourth between power delivery mode. Also wouldn't mind a little bit more oomph from the cpu along with little bit more battery efficiency considering the dual screen
