    You don’t think with the proper specs that it could behave much more akin to a modern laptop? Not to overhype or anything, but it feels like people have been waiting on something like this for a long time.

      Absolutely but even their high end model has just a RK3588S 8-core 64-bit with a Mali-G610 MP4 … and that’s not exactly a powerhouse if you check benchmark with like an i7 which would already be several years old, not even high end.

      This is not a “fair” comparison and yet, in practice if you sit down with that setup and you start to use Blender and Firefox with a tutorial running in the background, it’s going to feel sluggish quickly IMHO.

        I suppose those are some valid reservations. I just think they’d be for different use cases anyway.

        What would make you excited for something like this?
