I bought this last time it was posted here and I've had it for a couple weeks now. The device arrived in new condition, I suspect a lot of people are returning them because the black metal finish attracts fingerprint smudges. The price is amazing (nearly half what any other Ryzen AI 365 system sells for), the screen is incredible, the CPU/GPU are very fast, and the 75Wh battery is huge for a laptop this size.

Because the CPU/GPU are so new I had to replace my graphics drivers and kernel in Ubuntu 24.04 to get hardware acceleration working correctly. But after I did it's smooth even in power saving mode. When it's plugged in it's near the fastest laptop you can get without a dedicated GPU.

It draws about 9-10W watching YouTube on lowish brightness so it can last about 7 hours doing that. For normal desktop work in power saving mode with medium brightness it draws around 4-7W so it can last over 10 hours, I've never actually depleted the battery because it lasts longer than a work day.

I assume if you use Windows it already comes with the proper drivers set up but I don't have a Microsoft account to log in with so I never made it to the desktop. The Linux drivers from AMD are still a work in progress so I wouldn't be surprised if Windows is even more power efficient.

There are still simple ways to skip the MS account, use a local account, during setup.

Best thing to do is wipe and install a fresh copy of Windows. I don't want to name names, but Google "Windows LTSC Download 26100.1742" and read through the website of the first result. Using LTSC is optional but AFAIK Windows 10 will not run on hardware this new so you will need to stick with Windows 11.

TL;DR:
Launch Win11 installer while disconnected from internet
When the installer is ready for you to click to proceed, push Shift+F10 to bring up the Command Prompt
Type oobe\bypassnro, hit Enter

The installer should reload and you'll have a No Internet option to create a local account.
