Deal Details
Back down to the original launch price.

I've been using this as my main work laptop since April. No issues with any software so far including more niche stuff like Tableau Desktop, Checkpoint VPN, Insta360 Studio. Only incompatibility has been the PCI-E pass-through 2.5Gbe Ethernet driver on my HP G4 Thunderbolt 4 Dock because HP doesn't have a driver for this platform.

Very fast, super quiet, huge RAM etc. etc. that you can see reviews for. This model has on-die RAM (SiP memory) like Apple M chips; lower X2 SKUs are not on-die

Probably one of the best deals in a laptop given the 48GB RAM and the Snapdragon Elite X2 seems to be killing it in reviews. From what I've read, this is one of the faster laptops you can buy and at $1600 (while everyone else is well north of $2K or $3K) it's a great deal!

I've been eyeing open box to see if the price goes down further but now @ $1599 for a brand new one, I might just have to try it out!

Generally against plans but the Best Buy $30 plan may be worth the 60 day extended return period

Someone just posted the ASUS S16 with Ryzen 465 and 32GB for $1,550. Heavier and worse "benchmark" performance. Definitely the ARM / compatibility question is something you gotta weigh especially if its your only device, but if it works it is really good IMHO

From the reviews I've read, the Elite X2 series has stepped up compatibility over the original series CPU. Printer drivers might still be an issue for some printers, but applications are supposed to be MUCH better.

I'm a full-fledged Total member so I already enjoy that perk plus 2-year warranty (although with ASUS, 2nd year has a deductible).
