    I received mine yesterday..

    Definitely have video pass through as it comes with a USB-C to HDMI adapter. Works on a 4K 60hz screen.

    Though at the moment it’s not really working with a Lenovo Thunderbolt 4 dock. Only passing a 4K 30hz signal .

    OLED Screen is excellent. It is glossy though. No touch screen.

    Fan turns on most of the time when not at complete idle.

    Mine came with Hynix SSD.

      how is the screen reflectivity? I have read that its super reflective

      • 

        Thrawn on 09/12/2021 - 14:46

        It’s quite reflective…. That’s true

          @Thrawn: Thanks. Have you used a Macbook before? If so is it similar? I hate surface laptops because of glossiness. Surface laptops got to be the worlds most glossiest laptops

      Mine arrived a couple of weeks ago. WD SN730 SSD, so there's an SSD lottery of sorts.

      Generally happy, though the keyboard backlighting is pretty awful, if you're at more than say, 45 degrees to the keyboard the lighting mostly just bleeds through under the keys instead of through them, and blinds you.

      EDIT: It certainly is the most reflective laptop I've owned, but then I come from a line of matter ThinkPads (which don't come in mainstream OLED variants hence the switch). But I do have a Surface Pro (not by choice, I hate it but it's my work-supplied WFH machine). Side-by-side I reckon the Surface is more reflective but it's not something I'd ever notice in day-to-day use.

      @Thrawn is the fan noisy ?

        You can hear it.. but I wouldn’t call it noisy

          @Thrawn: Can you switch to Battery Saving mode and check if it still keeps running ?

      It won't have thunderbolt by virtue of its AMD architecture.

      • 

        tchcrat on 13/12/2021 - 12:49

        True. Thunderbolt is nice to have, but haven't used the feature in the last 5 years in any of the intel laptops owned.

        Any kurrent killer feature that is not possible with type-C 3.2 gen 2?

          JownehFixIT on 13/12/2021 - 18:40

          @tchcrat: No idea, I've never owned a thunderbolt device myself. Just pointing it out in response to Thrawn in terms of having issues with a thunderbolt dock. ⚡

        Yeah I know.. but my expectation is that it'll use DP 1.4, which in theory should do dual 4K 60hz. There's some kind of compatibility issue my guess.

        The TB4 dock can drive single screen 4K 60hz on both an HP EliteBook 840 G6 and Yoga 720 13" (both has TB3 but probably cut-down in terms of usable lanes)

  So OLED burn in isn't a thing any more?

    A thing or not once you see one you don't want to look at any other screen tech again. So don't try it if you not gonna buy it. :)

      dealsforlife on 09/12/2021 - 23:23

      Haha true. I've got an LG OLED TV but yeah was just curious with laptops and OLED with the whole burn in rigmarole.

  It's weird that laptops are still being pushed with glossy screens when they're more likely to be used outdoors, whereas monitors are all matte sans totl apple and LG monitors.
