My favorite type of reviews, straight to the point and realistic.
Wow, seems like a great deal! Thanks for filling us on on these - I had no idea about the ZenBook 14X, and now this!
Having dedicated Home, End, PgUp, PgDn keys for any kind of heavy typing and text edition is a must feature. Period.
i still remember that sony vaio duo 11 i had, which had a super-handy second fn button right next to the arrow keys, making home-end-pgup-pgdown one-handable. I think it's better than weirdly laid out dedicated keys on the hp. No other laptop has this second fn, sadly...
Great video! It's crazy how much more efficient AMD mobile chips are right now, not to mention the great integrated graphics. It should be interesting to see how the new Meteor Lake laptops from Intel preform. Hopefully, we can see some competition between them.
while you at it, maybe you should wait for the new ARM from AMD, Invidia, as the new snapdragon x elite has shown promising performance and my money is on the next generation.
@@nakedeye44 Qualcomm has a chance to give AMD & Intel a serious headache over the next few years.
We havent really seen real world tests though. Im excited for x elite too but we should all stay skeptical and wait for good reviewers to get units. @@nakedeye44
Really loving the reviews of these new units featuring zen 4
Well done video. Thank you for including things like screen flicker, keyboard feel, and track pad. This was basically perfect for what I needed.
Thanks! Nice Review.
Thanks, Josh 😊💻👌🏽 I'm tempted to purchase this, but I'm wanting a larger screen size, plus the 10 key. What are your thoughts on the HP Pavilion Plus 16 inch? I also work from home, so I'm needing something that would be great for running multiple programs.
Do a Video comparison for HP Pavilion 14 and Lenovo Yoga 7i and please conclude on which is best
Thanks Josh. Great video as usual. You are right...This is an amazing deal for this price range. Glad to see HP pushing the price to value envelope. Definitely a buy.
How do you like this one vs the 16" version on huge sale?
How about this one vs the zenbook 14x?
I love that home pgup, pgdn end column. Used them all the time, and happy that HP maybe the only one that still including them
Hi Josh, Do you know if this laptop speaker got upgraded compare to last year’s model?
This Vs the Zenbook 14x is tough.
Nice that good laptops are getting cheaper though
which is better from these two? My college days are going to start so i need a good laptop, and have zenbook 14x in mind. Also does hp have software issues?
@@sreyassreenivas1223 depending on your country you might wanna get a 2024 model instead.
Also might possibly find some 2023 models on a big discount.
If one is significantly cheaper, then go for that.
This might be the perfect laptop for me. 14" form factor, efficient Ryzen 7 with the newer RDNA GPU, decent build quality, 16gb DDR5, good inputs (with full size HDMI) - all at a good price.
This configuration currently appears to be priced at $769.99. With the upcoming holiday sales, would you recommend waiting until closer to Black Friday sales for someone who is trying to get every penny of value out of their purchase?
Is the GPU enough, why no Nvidia ?
most people buy crab, not knowing what it is.
@lucasrem I ended up going with a dedicated nvidia GPU. I still the integrated Ryzen graphics would be a good choice for some users, though.
They no long offer the larger battery, is it still worth a look?
Awesome review as always Josh!!! I got one of these from the Costco deal.
You have mentioned about PWM flickering, hence I wanted to know how I can test my laptop for sure to see if it has the issue & how do I know if it will affect me?
FYI: I haven't used an OLED screen for computers/laptops before.
I got it from costco too, do u think Asus 14x is better or this hpp+? Asus doesn't have GPU but has Dolby Atmos and Thunderbolt
Josh's review of this laptop is spot on. I also compared this to the Asus Zenbook 14x & found that Asus has better fell & built quality. The speakers and touchpad on Asus are better. I did not do any stress test or played games, but the HP seems to run cool & quiet compared to the intel chips of Asus.@@asv227
I'm curios if it is better than Dell Inspiron 14 Plus 13th Gen with RTX 4050 (not the 2in1), 32 gb RAM.
I'm planning to buy it but there are no reviews about it yet.
Thanks Josh, I've find myself upgrading from one mid-range value pick to another every 3-4 years, so this kind of video is really helpful. Have been tempted by the battery life of Apple silicon, but looks like I'll stick with AMD.
Apple have priced themselves out of the market
@@JustJoshTech True, but Apple's most valuable asset (by far) is their brand, so regardless of the value of their products they will still fly off the shelves because they're shiny & trendy. Laptops like the HP P+ have to earn their place in the market, & this laptops looks to be an absolute price to performance monster. MB Airs will still sell 20x as many, regardless of the value the consumer is getting with the HP P+.
For me the dedicated page keys especially home and end are a must. Just bought a new lenovo laptop and its going back because I constantly hit the metal rim
Man I recently bought a ZenBook 14x w/i7 13700H for 700$ with 60$ tax. Waiting for it to be delivered to my country. Seeing that battery efficiency is shocking to me. But I have no regrets. Battery is something that is negligible for me
great review 😀😀 for a budget laptop
Josh this is a great video and I am considering this for a lightweight laptop.
Wait till our update Best Laptop of 2023 video comes out. It has alot of these. Either next Friday or Monday
@@JustJoshTech Thanks for the advice. I have a MacBook Pro 16 but I am traveling for work and want a small personal laptop that is light to carry. I have to bring my work laptop.
Thanks for mentioning PWM in the review. I'm sensitive to flicker and it makes lots of devices virtually unusable for me (especially phones, which all seem to have OLED screens nowadays, except for some ultra-budget models)
There is an anti-glare IPS with very similar resolution to the OLED option. I believe you have to build it to order though.
This price is fantastic. Unfortunately the new one isn't available in my country.
And Zenbooks are much more expensive here in Europe.
Which one would you choose when you look for the quietest 14 inch laptop? Pavilion Plus, Zenbook 14 or Yoga Slim Pro 7?
I have the intel version and it is good too (only difference being the battery life). The keyboard (love the sound of typing on it) and touchpad are pretty good, certainly better than lenovo ideapad pro range. The speakers are pretty good for downfiring ones and I have yet to hear the fans during browsing/normal use.
Got the HP Pavilion Plus 16 with the 13th Gen Intel i-7H, Intel’s Iris Xe graphics, 16GB of blazing DDR5 RAM (soldered), 512GB SSD, B&O sound and an awesome 16” 400 nit display just before christmas during a 12-hour online blitz sale from HP USA - for $770 with free shipping. Plus at the same sale I got my partner a (customised) HP Pavilion 15 with the 13th Gen Intel i-5U, Intel’s Iris Xe graphics, 16GB of pretty decent DDR4 RAM, 512GB SSD, B&O sound and a quite decent 15.6” 250 nit display + a cute HP mouse for $509 with free shipping. Backlit keyboards on both machines, and both are silver coloured. We’ve both used Dell laptops for the last decade and I’ve had a couple of IBM Lenovos, IBM Thinkpads and an Acer. All good laptops, but what HP has offered its customers these last few weeks is unbelievably good - so we made the switch!
Which is better bet. The 2 sir ?
Thank you for this video! I'm coming off a Surface Book 2 and I wanted to find a good working laptop that was in my price range, and actually found this laptop today on HP's website for a one day sale of $499.00! I went with this, and its my third "work/school laptop," first one being the Dell Inspiron. Think it will be a great upgrade. You're very informative and make researching laptops easy! Subscibed!
Great review, Josh! I am checking the link now to check it out before I buy; however it is not working…?
Was thinking of getting this but ended up getting the yoga 7 pro 14 with the 7735hs and 3050. It was mainly due to the fact that even with a black friday and student discount it came out to £900 whereas the yoga was only £650
I have been considering the same laptop, but I was worried about its battery life and thermals due to the 3050. Have these been an issue for you?
@@thotslayerk7022 I was thinking the same thing but for the price point I absolutely had to try it. I only bought it last weekend and only was told it was shipped yesterday so Im still waiting for it. Good thing is i have until 31st of January to test it for my needs.
I would however expect the hp to have better battery and thermals compared to the yoga though imo due to that more efficient processor, but I still need to see by how much
I think the highest you can get from pavillion 14 plus was rtx 2050, and it using intel u series processor
@@taupangnang1245 that was another option i saw, for me its priced the same as this 7840u model
@@thotslayerk7022some laptops can disable the dgpu to use the igpu to save power and reduce thermals. Im not sure about other laptops but thats what mine does
Looking cheap isn’t a bad thing in my use case, where theft is a real concern
Great video Josh. Did you ever get around to considering a review for the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11? It's been released for some time but I recall a Gen 9 review and you spoke quite highly of it.
Yes, I have it and I like it. This year's is actually much improved. Keyboard feels noticeably better than prior years. Trackpad also improved. .... but i'm waiting for my 2nd one to come in before doing the review. I have the FHD+ U series one. But i want to try the OLED model with P series first. I think i should have it out in about 2 weeks.
@@JustJoshTech Sounds good thanks!
I like the dedicated up and down keys....
Josh .do a review of the new pavilion 16 plus if you can get it, please
Hi Josh, great review. I have a question. I don't have an issue at all using my phone that has an OLED screen. How similar are the screens between laptop and phone OLEDs? I shouldn't have an issue with the flickering of the OLED screen of the Pavilion Plus 14 right?
I dunno if I can resolve your query but they have similar OLED display like we have on our phone.
You won't notice any flickering at all. It shows flickering whenever you see the screen through camera. Pwm dimming is a good feature which maintains colour accuracy.
I’m late but what do you think about getting this laptop at a similar price but with an Intel i5 13500H processor instead along with a 51 Wh battery and Intel Iris Xe Graphics? Is it worth it?
Hi Josh. What are your thoughts about "ASUS - Zenbook 14" 120Hz OLED Touch Laptop - EVO Intel 13 Gen Core i9 with 32GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForece RTX 3050 - 1TB"? Is it worth it?
I will appreciate if you would be able to recommend similar laptop or the same but with discrete graphics card which is required by software used daily by me. Great video!
Is this exact model available in the UK?
Yo, Costco has the 1TB/Wifi6E model of this on sale for $600 today.
Yup! Scooped it out of pure luck
AMDs naming scheme is a mess. But I think it’s very important that you also mention not only is the 7730U running Zen3 and not Zen4 it has an ancient Vega iGPU compared to the RDNA iGPU on the 7840U.
The difference between Zen3 and Zen4 is noticeable but the difference between Vega and RDNA is massive when it comes to light gaming and graphical applications.
LOL I just checked…the 7730U doesn’t even support AV1 decoding it’s so old…🤦🏻♂️
How is it a mess? Each number has a specific meaning and all the cpu names make sure to honor that rule. What's missing?
@@skeptykajust don't rename your old stuff to fool unbeknownst people into paying more for it thinking it's new? I don't see a problem in leaving a 6800U as a 6800U. But calling it a 7735U? No. It's too confusing and way too similar to the 7840U
@@skeptyka just bc something is systematic does not mean it’s user friendly. Just read the ingredients list on your packaged food. I have PhD in Pharmacology those words make perfect sense and their chemical naming is very systematic, does that help a lay person understand what they are, not at all…
@@skeptyka also what part of the naming scheme tells you what the iGPU is?
Will you review some laptops with Intel 13th series? Like e.g. 1335U?
I can't find the ryzen version anywhere in the UK
can you make a video how to enable cuda for machine learning/deep learning for windows
Hello Josh, I am a technology student and looking for a latop for college and work purposes. But my affordability is 500 to 600 CAD. Please suggest
Waiting for the best 16 inch laptop comparison.
There's also lenovo thinkbook 14+, which is basically the same hardware-wise, but with a bit worse battery and display, but better build quality.
You didn't mention it has no touch screen. That's a big deal to me after having used one for so long.
This is what I call "The One". I give one laptop this title every year (well actually I skip years if nothing meets the standard). The only person that should avoid this laptop is someone who intends to plug in an external GPU or use USB4. This laptop, outside of the C ports, has very up to date I/O, which is hilariously rare at this price point - and even the price point above it. HDMI 2.1 while well under $1000. Who would have thought?
Yea i think this is fair. I picked up this laptop from Josh's recommendation and this all holds true. Im kind of astonished to be honest.
My only prayer is that this model sold well and HP continues it. It does so much right!
If I had to start a wishlist I would ask for more ran SD card USB for support. Even then what we have now is a remarkable offering and again all under $1000!
absolutely amazing video 😍
I have been using hp laptop provided by my company since last 10 years........and i absolutely love the dedicated up and down keys.....!!!
Thanks Josh. What are your thoughts on the Lenovo Yoga Slim (Pro) 7 or 7i compared to this laptop?
Next couple of videos should answer that or I can cover it in the live stream today
The 48Hz mode sounds like it's made for watching movies which are typically shot at 24 fps.
Would it make sense to buy the basic configuration with Ryzen 5 and IPS display? I use the laptop only at home so 300 nits should be enough. And the PWM flickering will be gone right?
no way. OLED and the ryzen 7's GPU performance are much better
Great review. Does the laptop slow down after extended use? I think another reviewer indicated HP is conservative with managing processor temperature and as a result clock speeds are reduced. Two points that would prevent me from seriously considering this laptop: 1) the lack of a 32GB memory option and 2) USB 4. At this point in time USB 4/TB 4 should be the standard for USB-C. And memory can be a huge bottleneck - 16GB may not be sufficient in a couple of years. 32GBs gives you the piece of mind to avoid memory bottlenecks and know the laptop will be relevant in a couple of years.
16 def aint bad though which is why apple charges a fortune for that upgrade
Complete agree with the memory limitation being the biggest shortcoming for this package. Integrated graphics that don’t suck can soak up a ton of memory, which bottlenecks your nice 7840
@@chuboasshippo218116gb is great, right up till it isn’t and then your computers performance is cut in half of what I could be. You have a point but let’s not let manufacturers shove this early end of life BS down our throats. Apple leads the way on marketing this garbage limitation on product life in order to force upgrades
I really really hope more laptops start using these efficient processors. Having an actually acceptable battery life is the reason Apple is dominating the whole industry at the moment.
AMD laptops have had great efficiency for years, but Windows laptops aren't trendy so they don't get the attention MacBooks do.
@@Lee.S321 more importantly AMD wont guarantee a reliable supply of the newest node CPUs to any OEM so they barely produce any flagship AMD designs every year. AMD's PC/laptop revenue decreased 51% YoY from its already tiny amount
@@chuboasshippo2181 They focus on their server chips, when they could be dominating the laptop market (even if it isn't as profitable, you'd think increasing their brand recognition would be a marketing goldmine for them).
Indeed
I had some bad experiences with HP laptops many years ago which really soured my opinion of them. However, it appears that they've really upped their game.
not to defend HP but ive heard people say this about every single windows OEM. my least favorite is probably asus so far
@@chuboasshippo2181 Have to agree. Funny thing, ASUS is one of my favorites these days. Obviously it all depends on your personal experience with a manufacturer.
👋what do you think about HP Pavilion x360 2-in-1 Laptop?
which one should i buy if im a student whos going to study software engineer for 3 years, hp pavilion plus 14, asus zenbook 14 or asus zenbook 14x??? Also please give the reason why you would choose it.
its quite good but i would consider the lenovo slim 5 as its keyboard is black color...
does this have two ssd slots?
Can you please tell me if I should buy this or the Canadian available version of zenbook 14x. I got the zenbook 14x earlier but I had overheating issues and some bugs so I had to return it. Do you think I should get it again or?
Btw I need the laptop for programming and the available version that looks the us one has a p processor
a game I play lists the requirements as: [Support Shader Model 5.0 (Intel HD4000 Integrated, Geforce 400 Series, Radeon HD2000 Series)] and recommends: [AMD 290x or nVidia 970GTX or Better] for graphics and processor requirement: [Dual core] recommends: [Recent Intel i5/i7 or AMD 6 core or better] should it be able to run it well? my current laptop has gen 10 i7 and Intel Iris Plus graphics and it keeps freezing during loading screens and crashing sometimes in the middle of the game. I don't need a gaming laptop and that one is the only game I play on my laptop I have a ps4 for gaming
Yea the integrated gpu will support shader model 5 and performance should be decent
Doesn't seem available in Denmark yet.
bro when are you reviewing the new Microsoft surface studio ?
By the way have you ever considered doing shorts to shout out great deals on laptops. Sometimes they pop up quickly and then they are gone within a week. For example, Lenovo had some fantastic deals on some of their laptops. A quick YT short about a sale would be a nice high value add on for your viewers...especially around the holidays and drive more views. Production value wouldn't need to be high at all...could be done via your phone. Just an idea I thought I'd share.
Hi Jet, we've talked about this extensively here actually. Do you think people would prefer this or a regular live stream before key sales periods Black Friday, Christmas, Back to School?
@@JustJoshTech I think both would be useful...here is why...many of these sales just popup and don't last terribly long so timing is critical. If you wait to release a video that's meant to incorporate seasonal sales you'll likely miss out on many short term incredible one time sales. For example, I recently purchase the Lenovo 11th Gen X1 Carbon for with 32GB ram for ~$1,200. That sale was out of cycle with the normal seasonal sales (early October) but it was a fantastic sale. Occasionally I happen to stumble on these deals by chance and I'm sure there are many that I just don't see. It would be nice if someone was watching for these "pop-up" sales and letting us know with just a quick short (15 seconds). This could be just another value your channel could provide. Also It would be awesome if someone kept a spreadsheet with the best known sales prices so that you could "qualify the sale" and let us know whether the sale is truly a great sale compared to other sales prices throughout the year...sort if like camelcamelcamel but focused on laptops. Just my thoughts.
It apears the oled screen is only available with the Ryzen 7
Need a 16 inch 16:10 at least 1600p value laptop for coding. Budget is 1200€ and should have a decent keyboard. Any ideas?
Legion Slim 7 AMD
were can we buy this laptop in Europe?
Thank you.
Is there any Windows laptop that doesnt have an air intake at the bottom?
Good for gaming, coding and editing?
Great review as usual, and great laptop for the price! I live in France and this laptop is not commercialised (yet?) I contacted HP France and the answer was : "We do not yet have exact information of the release of this model on our site." 😢
Now it's available on the french HP website !
Sadly this laptop is not available in my country :( I live in Spain so it's not really that far away...
Macbook air 2020 is now £720. Still a very good buy.
In India it's going for about 1129usd (converted from inr). IMO that's way above the price of zenbooks with similar specs
Yeah absolutely doesn't make sense for us. The Zenbooks are priced really well
Is the RAM upgradeable?
Hello, appreciate the video! I have been eying this laptop for some time, but two things has made me tip toe before actually making the purchase... If anyone can help me answering some of my questions, I'll shower them with gold.
First dilema is the screen, every review talks exclusively about the OLED display and dismisses the other options, specifically the IPS display. My problem is, that I expect to use this display pretty much exclusively for VS Code (for many hours every day), no gaming or watching content. I'm worried about the OLED burn-in, and I know that the new screens are better in preventing that, but from my understanding, it is still a factor and an issue from the long term point of view. My question is, won't the bigger resolution IPS display be better for my use case? I don't know if this laptop would still be considered "good buy" even with the IPS display. Like I said, I don't care about the colors or the blacks, when all I'll be looking at is the VS Code.
Second question would be in regard to the connectivity. Since this is AMD laptop, it doesn't have Thunderbolt (nor USB4, as someone in the comments said). Is it realistic to have a USB C hub, which would support two external Full HD 60hz monitors plus ethernet connector? Or is it physically impossible, or maybe the USB C speeds are not enough for that? I could get away with connecting one monitor throught the HDMI, but since i have to have a cable internet connection, I'm missing one port. I need to have a power connection, two external monitors, and a ethernet connection. HP is selling one USB C hub, which would work just fine with it's connectivity, but I don't know, if the USB C ports can handle all the "traffic", for the lack of the better word.
I apologize for bothering anybody with this, but I have failed at using Google, so I don't have a better alternative then to start asking people. I'll be extremely grateful to anyone who can direct me anywhere close to getting my answers. Cheers and I hope you have a nice day!
Again, you haven’t reviewed the E14 Thinkpad AMD series
We enjoy the dedicated column of Navigation keys other than the arrow keys: (Long-Range Navigation keys:- Home, End, PgUp, PgDn).
But HP's design department is so bad as they were with their keyboard keys colour.
The End key should be below👇 the "Home" key so as to arrange the Home & End key close together. And PgUp, PgDn keys should be below them. This also makes the PgDn& PgUp keys easily approachable to the users' hands while they are browsing, reading Books, Code Editors.
HP lags always behind lenovo & Asus in designing. (No innovation in laptop design by HP😬)
*(Short-range/Precision Navigation keys:- Arrow Keys)
*(Long-range Navigation keys:- already mentioned above)
This spec in Australia is over $2000 aud
Appears to be one available in the US...
This thing is really, really good value in the US
Thanks!!!!
So from your video "Best Laptop for Programming in 2023 ULTIMATE GUIDE" would this fill in the check marks?
Software Development, Data Science, or Data Analyst?
Hi sir can you please do a 13 inch laptops comparison plsss
glad to see oled going down in ranges. ive been wanting to replace my laptop but i find windows laptops to have either horrible screens or having to pay a fortune for professional laptops with niche features i dont need. i just wanna watch videos and check emails, but i dont want to fatigue my eyes. i dont need a killer gaming laptop, i want something average but with a gorgeous screen i can look at for 10 hours. it's already in the mail, let's hope it's the one ive been looking for!
It's a great machine. I love mine and it's the best productivity laptop I've ever bought. It genuinely feels like using a MacBook 🎉at times.
Battery life for all tasks is crazy good. No battery anxiety? And on a windows 11 machine?? I think you'll enjoy it
@jeevejavari8461 i concur! got it two evenings ago, not even 48 hours with it yet but so far i like everything about it. it was also on sale $300 off so that's nice too! i only wish the ports were on the left side. i come from a macbok and a lenovo from work so im always trying to plug it it on the wrong side lol. ill get used to it. and yeah, the feeling is to mac similar, especially since i have one and im switching between both the time i transfer my files in the hp right now. i regret buying the mac, it was twice the price for equal performance and i slowly got locked into the apple ecosystem. i'm tired of being stuck there, i'm selling everything i have from Apple, even to ill lose some money, and going back to windows/android! still i'm happy i tried it for a a year tho lol 😅 but i hope this Pavilion will last me for at least 6 years. the specs are way above what i need for now.
Recommend it?
Why is the frameworks 7840u so much more powerful than the HPs? Feeding it more power? Memory speed?
Likely wattage fed to it
If that Zenbook 14X only has an AMD chip, it would be perfect. I find myself charging too often with the i7-13700H.
GPU it needs, most people don't know what it is.
apple i use the most over Windows, the better system.
there is option to choose the bigger battery at the page link you provided in the description
When you click the link, upgrade to the Ryzen 7 78740U version. That has the larger battery. You can confirm this by looking on the right side where they list out the parts. - Hope that helps!
@@JustJoshTech Oh, thank you. )
@@JustJoshTechis the smaller battery fine or is bigger one have better battery life ?
I will wait for the Zenbook 14X to come out with Ryzen 7 7840U cpu, probably next year. That will be the best of every worlds for me.
That would be the best thing since sliced bread!
do you have an idea which month Asus releases their laptops like the Zenbook 14X?
It is a really good laptop and I had my eyes on it the moment I saw it on HP Website of my region. But now I think I will stick with my HP Omen 15 inch 2021 model with 16 GB, 1TB, R7 5800H, RTX3060, FHD anti glare 300 Nits 100% SRGB and lots of ports, fast charging, Intel WiFI card, great keyboard and great upgradability. The Disadvantages are 3 hours of battery life instead of 6 on this one and 1 kg more weight, and even more with that power brick. Nonetheless, the screen is sharp, flicker and reflection free, and performance is superior, like a Desktop. I don't play games but RTX 3060 will help with GPU intensive tasks like screenshot recording among other things. Really, if you are not a student or a teacher who has to carry his or her device and needs computing on the go then I believe HP Omen are better than these, the much higher performance is great and so are things like reparability, upgradability, and is good in everything else too except weight and battery life.
So I believe I won't buy these thin and light ones. But I still have my judgement reserved on much anticipated Windows on ARM.
Would you recommend this over the M1 MacBook Air (for $749) ?
I'd get the Zenbook 14 from 2023 personally
thanks to video I'm able came final some conclusion.
No mention of weight?
I love this one, but should i go with the i7-1355U for $1600 AUD, rather than the Ryzen 7 7840U at $2200 AUD (all specs the same)? What would i be missing out on
The AMD variant has more performance per watt, meaning that it will be performant and have better battery life and cooler thermals. Also, the integrated GPU (Radeon 780M) is comparable with some old dedicated GPUs such as the 1650. Intel Iris Xe is just in need of a dire upgrade at this moment.
@sirsean what did you end up getting? I hope the 7840, it crushes the 1355
You can now order it for $1,379 AUD from HP
Is the base config also good value if you don't care about display? $529
Very
Amen to the request not to have light colored keys on a backlit keyboard. What were they thinking?
Does anyone know if the USB C port can support a portable monitor with power and video over a single USB C cable? Or does that take thunderbolt/usb 4?
It can. I use a portable folding dual monitor setup and one cable powers both screens and video works just fine. Great laptop all around. Sucks not usb 4 but still not bad
@@jeevejavari8461 perfect thank you! I think my use case it would be great. Wish it were a bit lighter, thinner and had usb4, but that this price it's tough to beat
