Lowest price for lunar lake.

Decent build quality, but no touchscreen, and FHD+ which some people don't like on their OLED screen (including myself).

Are you complaining about it being a 16:10 screen ratio? If so, it's a computer not a TV.

They're complaining about the resolution being too low leading to text looking fuzzy on oled screens. I have a 15.6 inch vivobook with FHD resolution and never had an issue but I've seen several other people express their issues with it.

No, I love 16:10 screens, I refuse to buy a 16:9 screen on laptops.

I am also fine with FHD+ on IPS screens, but on OLED the text is fuzzy. Some people claim it is only on touchscreens, but I have seen it on non touchscreens. I don't see it on 3k screens (touch or non-touch). Otherwise I am not a resolution snob like some people.

Go check it out for yourself and you decide.

Great device. My only complaint is it's very very hard to swap the SSD out. I put a larger SSD in and now I'm dual booting with Linux( use a rolling release).

I agree. I bought a samsung 15.6 oled laptop with 1080p resolution and don't like the fuzzy text.

I bought this from the previous deal. It actually plays Cyberpunk 2077 at 38 FPS at medium preset, so I'm pretty impressed a thin and light laptop, that can charge from a USB-C battery pack, with integrated graphics can pull this off.

My only compaint with this is it attracts finger prints like crazy. Other than that it's solid for 600. Battery goes well beyond 12h for coding and web browsing. Fans barely turn on and very silent. Does not get hot at all. If you are fine with the screen and less than ideal build quality it packs a great cpu underneath.

Agree. All things considered, this is still one heck of a deal for Lunar Lake laptop.

I've checked out both this and the Zenbook that was on sale for $700 with Meteor Lake. They are basically identical in build quality. The Zenbooks with "Ceraluminum" might have a more premium feel but those are more expensive.
