Neat. I wonder if the S Keys are touchbar-style or if they're physical, tactile buttons. The latter would make them nicer to use in my view.
Also the screen may have a huge chin, but I'd call it acceptable here because it's in *addition* to a 16:10 panel, instead of taking the place of one as is the case with so many of the new MSI and Clevo laptops.
No numpad again...
Does it have an original chassis or is it just another CLEVO/Intel build?
Quoteoriginal chassis or (...) CLEVO
I'd be interested in knowing this as well.
If it's Clevo, this is at least one positive sign of re-emerging relevance for them. All the newest Clevo models, at least the ones sold by Sager that I've found on their website, still use 16:9 panels. It's a practicality problem in and of itself, as well as a deeper reflection into their stagnation in today's market. If this model is indeed a Clevo, I'm hoping that's a sign this is finally changing, and that this isn't just a one-off.
