A few notes that may or may not matter to people:
* great res/aspect ratio, but claimed 300 nits, which is good enough for most indoor usage, but not in brighter environments) - that being said, Notebookcheck tested theirs at 350 nits
* RAM is soldered so you're locked into 16GB (M.2 wifi and 2280 SSD can be replaced)
* no USB-A ports
Overall though it's a pretty great laptop, can't wait to see how the Ryzen 6000 version performs (and if it had a 32GB version would be high on my personal shopping list).

- geokon 4y ago* no USB-A ports I'm not sure what you mean. It's got two on the right side. And two USB-C on the left (though one will typically be used by your charger) - which seems to be unusual still.. 16GB hasn't been an issue so far - but it's def my number 1 concern. But for under $1k I can't really expect more
- lhl 4y agoAh, you're right, I had a different Huawei laptop page open for the spec sheet. having 2 x USB-A ports is great (personally, I usually have a wireless keyboard and mouse dongle, so it's something I'm still concerned about). If 16GB is enough then that's great. Sadly, I will usually end up hitting swap even with 32GB, so getting to at least 40GB (8GB+ soldered, 1 SODIMM), but preferably 2xSODIMMs for 64GB ends up thinning out my options considerably.
