I bought this last time it was posted here and I've had it for a couple weeks now. The device arrived in new condition, I suspect a lot of people are returning them because the black metal finish attracts fingerprint smudges. The price is amazing (nearly half what any other Ryzen AI 365 system sells for), the screen is incredible, the CPU/GPU are very fast, and the 75Wh battery is huge for a laptop this size.

Because the CPU/GPU are so new I had to replace my graphics drivers and kernel in Ubuntu 24.04 to get hardware acceleration working correctly. But after I did it's smooth even in power saving mode. When it's plugged in it's near the fastest laptop you can get without a dedicated GPU.

It draws about 9-10W watching YouTube on lowish brightness so it can last about 7 hours doing that. For normal desktop work in power saving mode with medium brightness it draws around 4-7W so it can last for at least 10 hours, usually more. I've never actually depleted the battery because it lasts longer than a work day.

I assume if you use Windows it already comes with the proper drivers set up but I don't have a Microsoft account to log in with so I never made it to the desktop. The Linux drivers from AMD are still a work in progress so I wouldn't be surprised if Windows is even more power efficient for the next few months.
Type start ms-cxh:localonly instead the old way oobe\, it will work like a charm to skip the M$ account.

This guy test those mobile cpus for gaming. it's a mini pc and not a laptop but this will give you a good idea.

the 370 is way more powerful than the 365 for gaming because it has a better igpu. but this one is ok for aaa games at low to medium settings (1080p and activate FSR). YMMV based on the game as usual.

Does fairly well considering. Will play really any game . Most recent games will need frame gen and play on low -med settings .

It feels pretty good, the key travel is short but the resistance is fine. There's also an RGB backlight with 3 brightness settings. The trackpad is large too

Can anyone confirm that the RAM is NOT upgradeable? I don't think it is but wanted to be sure.

In for one. Wanted the Best Buy deal but this seems to be good to go. Hopefully don't receive a dud.

Is this a workhorse? Looking for a laptop can stand multiple tabs of chrome, edge, and Microsoft teams and zoom and rdp session all at once. Will this hold up? Smilie
