Disappointed with speakers
The sound quality from the speakers is very weak and tinny. Using headphones is essential for any media consumption.
AMD Ryzen 7 7735HS. 16" 2.5K IPS. 2x USB4. Decent value.

Upgraded from an older model and the difference is huge. The boot-up time and app loading are incredibly fast.
The processing power is great for my coding projects, and the screen is beautiful. However, the fan gets quite loud under even moderate load, which can be distracting during work calls. Wish it had better thermal management.
The 2.5K IPS screen is fantastic for watching videos and working on documents. However, only having two USB-A ports means always carrying a dongle for my peripherals, which is inconvenient for a 16-inch laptop.
It's a very capable machine; battery lasts most of my workday.
