Seems like a lot of hassle to me for not very much benefits. I mean I have never broken an inbuilt usb port, but connectics are quite often getting unreliable and glitchy, even sometimes inside a phone or laptop.

Thanks for the rundown though and it feels like a fun tinker laptop, cheers :-)

the way they market it is "most laptops these days have like 2 USBC ports on one side and that's it. it's has 4 ports, two on each side, that can be anything you want.

Stop beating a dead horse, I got the idea.

If you need X usb ports buy a laptop with X usb ports man or switch the ethernet port for one I guess. I just don't think the idea is appealing enough, for me it's like having inbuilt dongles with a point of failure each.

You like it? Go get one!
