Just an FYI the chip came out last year. Even if the pics say "copilot key", that just means the keyboard has a dedicated key for copilot shortcuts, not that can take full advantage of the ai enhanced suite of copilot tools like the snapdragon elite.
Specs wise the ram is a bit on the low side or at best imbalanced considering all the processor cores this chip has (6+8+2) and as far as I can see on the asus' site and other 3rd party sites, the max memory is 16GB, which means it is soldered on with no expansion slots. as far as I know LPDDR5(x) memory must be soldered on and do not come in traditional sodimms

Uh you mean like its not as good as 780M in Ryzen 7 8840HS? (Which is also a better processor, and cheaper?)
The Arc Graphics is comparable to the 780M now, beating it in some benchmarks while losing in some other, that too by a small margin.
Maybe try watching some videos and having some actual knowledge. Here are some videos:

It's a good deal for less graphic-intense tasks, but not a great deal for video editing or playing graphic-intense games. IMO
No one would intend on playing graphic-intense games with an iGPU. You're contradicting your own comment about the 780M, that can't play graphic-intense games either.

If their apps crash on Arc GPU, sounds more like an Adobe problem not fixing their apps. Arc is a mainstream modern GPU.
