4200Euros with a weak CPU (not even the hexacore 10710u) and only a 1TB SSD  >:( :(

Hopefully thunderbolt, finally.

this so called i7 is a direct competitor to ryzen 3500/3700u.

Damn, no Ryzen 4XXX here neither. Would have been perfect with 4900U / 4800U / or even 4900HS / 4800HS, just perfect! But they had to ruin them with outdated Intel's crap.

4400u/4500u/4600u/4700u/4800u we can make the best lineup from any of these imho :) just take 3 of 5 and done.

The prices are extortionate, this is bad even by MS standards. The "demo" prices seem reasonable though.

In another news Microsoft Product Pricing staff seem to have been deeply effected by Coronavirus!

With a top Ryzen 4xxx could have been a perfect workstation on the go. I bet those Intel CPUs will throttle a LOT on that slim chassis. Probably people will buy it just for the high numbers on the stickers!

Seems like a pretty lame upgrade with these specs. Same old 14nm++++++ reheated leftovers from Intel. The price seems astronomical too.
Ryzen 4800U 8 core 15W and 2060gtx would have been a very enticing upgrade to rival the Macbook pro. With these specs the only thing that rivals the MB16 is the price

I wholly agree with this. AMD's nailed it this gen, likely retaining the lead until at least Zen 4.

Microsoft and Intel are both heavily influenced by Israel. Microsoft will always prefer Intel over AMD. Even at the expense of consumer benefits and true performance. This is sadly how it works and consumers suffer low value stuff sold at sky rocket prices.

That's a curious way to see this.
