Great specs but there probably will be significant thermal throttling in such a small package.

I have this but dislike it. It gets hot very easily on light tasks. And battery is pretty terrible. The screen is gorgeous though.

is yours the 2023 or the 2024 model? Supposedly there's a decent improvement between the 2 but it's also not obvious what the model year is from just the name

For those interested, Sam's Club has the same model on sale at the same price, but also includes an extra year of accidental damage protection.

Er, I think this only came out in 2024, I believe it was first shown off at this years CES and then launched in the spring. You might be thinking of a different model (normal Zenbook or the other Zenbook Duo which has the small pop-up display above the keyboard, maybe?) where the Lunar Lake SoC did indeed bring big improvements in battery life/efficiency. That doesn't pertain to this model (at least yet, but if they stay in the same class it likely isn't going to be as good since those chips didn't see as big of an improvement because they have more CPU cores and I believe lack the on package DRAM which seemed to help a lot with Lunar Lake).

Cant find a model number onbsams website but these are not the same. Costco has 32 gb of ram, sams 16. Plus sams clubs site says the resolution is 1920x1200, 60hz, Costco 3k@120hz.

Yep you're right. I went back and realized I'm confusing reddit reviews with the other dual screen one with a similar name

Ive had this laptop since release. I've had no issues with it. To me it's the perfect work laptop to travel with since I can get better production with two screens.
