MBP claims 1000nits fullscreen brightness. HP already has a bunch of laptops that do 800+. This to me is one of the best & easiest ways for this laptop to win.

MBP claims 1000nits fullscreen brightness. HP already has a bunch of laptops that do 800+. This to me is one of the best & easiest ways for this laptop to win. A beefy Ryzen is available on dozens & dozens of laptops now, cheap. Having a really versatile display is a killer upgrade. I live in the console: font size 8 or 9 gets me the high density content, while being at a power conserving 1080p. But being able to see that display clearly in all conditions: that governs what font size Ill be able to effectively use. Great move, sensible, not even costly. Most people just charge way more because they think they can.
