The ACEMAGIC S16 pairs a Ryzen 7 H 255 and Radeon 780M with 24GB of LPDDR5 memory, making it a strong value for gaming and on device inference. The dual channel 2x12GB setup matters for iGPU performance, and the CPU and graphics are described as roughly Z1 Extreme class. The price looks especially attractive against current DDR5 pricing. The main cautions are the unclear PCIe 3.0 limited 2280 slots, concerns about cheap internal parts, and the fact that S16 variants are not all equivalent.

Common Questions (5)

  • It is dual-channel, configured as 2x12GB rather than 1x24GB. That matters for iGPU performance and on-device inference, and it is also LPDDR5 rather than SODIMM slots.

  • The Ryzen 7 H 255 with Radeon 780M is described as a Z1 Extreme-class setup and can run a lot of games. The dual-channel memory configuration helps the integrated GPU perform properly.

  • At $579, the 24GB DDR5 memory alone is framed as unusually expensive, with 24GB sticks or equivalent memory pricing often cited above $300. The CPU and iGPU are also considered capable for the price.

  • The CPU and RAM are praised, but the internal components are flagged as potentially cheap, with reports of failures after 6 to 12 months, including battery degradation and motherboard issues. A separate long-term ownership report says an ACEMAGIC laptop can also last for years without problems.

  • No. The different S16 variants are not equivalent, so the exact RAM, storage, and component configuration should be checked before buying.

Seems like a decent deal considering the crazy high prices of RAM nowadays. 24GB of DDR5 ram would cost you over 300 bucks just by itself.

Yes sir.. Both the ROG Ally and the Ally X use the Ryzen Z1 Extreme APU, which use the Radeon 780M gpu.

To be clear, it's 2x12GB for the RAM. Dual Channel is needed for decent iGPU performance, so glad it's not 1x24GB as indicated.

This is LPDDR5, not 2x SODIMM slots.

Not bad for the price. The CPU / iGPU are still super capable. The weirdest thing which I'm hoping is a typo are the PCIe 3.0 limited 2280 slots.

Yes, not SODIMM. But it IS dual-channel, hence 2x12 and not 1x24. People who want expectations on performance, especially with the iGPU or on-device inference will appreciate the difference.

Can someone confirm if the memory is 12GBx2 or 24GBx1? On the photos it says 12GBx2 but the specs says 24GBx1

We live in strange times. A more common amount is 16gb and good luck finding that for even just $200. 24gb sticks on Amazon are over $300.

Good question. I'd like to know the answer too.

It's actually most likely 4 x 48Gb (6GB) packages, each mapping to one of the four 32-bit channels (4x32-bit on LPDDR5 vs. 2x64-bit on standard DDR5). Still running in dual channel, but pedantically unlikely to be the more expensive 2 x 96Gb (12GB) LPDDR5 BGA IC chips.
