It's 15.6 inches, and it's 2.6cm thick, at a total weight of 2.2kg. The chassis is super rigid without any hint of deck flex. You can of course open up the device very easily with a few screws, and upgrade the RAM and the storage. The display is a 1440p screen, at 2560 by 1440, with a 16:9 ratio. It's a 240hz refresh rate panel, anti-reflective, at 350 nits, and supports 95% of SRGB. On top of the display, you get a decent webcam, a 1080p one. The microphone is decent. On to the keyboard. It's the best keyboard I ever used on a laptop. The touchpad is nice, if not incredible. It's smooth, and feels good for gestures, but it's a bit small for this size of laptop. On to the speakers, and they're decent. Finally, the I/O. On the left side, you get a full size USB 3.2 Gen 2 port, a mic jack and an audio jack, plus that kensington lock. On the right, you have a full size SD card reader, and 2x USB-A 3.2 Gen1. Finally, on the back, you have a thunderbolt 4 port, an HDMI 2.1 port, a gigabit ethernet jack, and the barrel charger. The i7 12700H is a monster. It's a 14 core, 20 threads CPU, which goes up to 4.68ghz. On Geekbench 5, it scores 1815 in single core, and 11588 in multi core. It's the most powerful CPU I own, out of all my devices, including my desktop ryzen 7 5800H. In terms of battery life, of course, it will depend on what you do. Using only the intel graphics card, with a typical workload for me of writing on Nextcloud notes inside of Firefox, listening to music, with wifi on, bluetooth on for my mouse, headphones, and mid brightness, the laptop got up to 7h of use, thanks to the 93 Wh battery. When using the nvidia dGPU for gaming, though, if you let it run as fast as it can, you can expect something more along the lines of 3 to 4 hours. Video editing lasted about 4 and a half hours for me. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eRsbv-rsU8

elementary OS has released a bunch of updates in October, and I think they're worth a look, so here is what has changed, and there are some big changes! Support the channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thelinuxexperiment Follow me on Twitter : http://twitter.com/thelinuxEXP What I use to make my videos: Microphone: https://amzn.to/2PsNWXl GPU: https://amzn.to/2LHZ5o5 Motherboard: https://amzn.to/2KZt63t CPU: https://amzn.to/2IFjKrw elementary OS blog post: https://blog.elementary.io/updates-for-october-2019/ AppCenter The AppCenter has received a lot of love this month. First of all, it's now up to 10 times faster to load the recommended suggestions and the homepage, which is always welcome. The speed improvement is really noticeable ! But the main feature is still flatpak support: that's right, elementary's AppCenter has added the first brick to support this more recent format. It doesn't ship with flathub by default, but if you add a flatpak to your system, and it adds its own remote, you'll be able to select, directly in the AppCenter, which app you want to install: the one from the repos, or the one from flatpak. TO add these individual flatpak files, you now have the sideload app, which is not installed by default, but you can install it with sudo apt install io.elementary.sideload It allows you to open individual flatpakref files and install the app and their remote server to keep them up to date through the AppCenter. They'll warn you that the app is not curated by the elementary OS team, and this warning is now displayed on all apps coming from the standard Ubuntu repos as well. Finally, you can also browse and remove apps while offline. These changes make elementary OS a lot more flexible if you want to use flatpak apps, and since these correct the fact that elementary is based on an LTS version of Ubuntu, without the latest versions of popular apps, it really makes a huge difference. **Other changes** Apart from the AppCenter, a lot of other nice design touches have been implemented: First, the date and time indicator is now split in two, one for the calendar, and the other for the appointments you have for the selected day. It's a handy little change that will save some time when you need to see what's ahead on your schedule. In the settings, the Housekeeping tab has been redesigned to better match the welcome screen, with a nicer layout. The pairing agent for Bluetooth devices has been reworked as well, and now display pairing codes for peripherals that need them, so elementary should now support a wider range of devices by default. The new beautiful greeter, and the panel have received bugfixes and polish, and drop shadows and the general theme have been modified to look more consistent, especially with older GTK2 a ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNy3Ay2yDUU
