You are a very underrated tech YouTuber, you deserve much more man!

I love it when people actually use the hardware int their daily workflow instead of just running some benchmarks. This was a fantastic review very well done, you should have more subscribers!!!! You earned a Sub from me.

This is the most detailed and realistic review I’ve seen on this laptop.

[drixxonk]

Thank you so so much for actually being truthful when going over the battery life. I was lucky enough to get a 3.5K OLED XPS 15 & a 4K Lenovo Yoga C940, and despite being phenomenal devices capable of handling most tasks, battery life on the XPS is like 2 hours max.

(historically the yoga was ~90 minutes max, but recently it's been doing relatively well, like ~3 hours so idk)

Regardless, good battery life on ultrabooks with great displays is near impossible in my findings, so it's nice to know what i'd be getting into, especially since the Studio 2 is "only" a 1440p display, you'd think the battery would be closer to outstanding.

This review is exactly what I was looking for. I've never seen your videos before, and I can't believe I havent (I watch all the tech channels)... anyway I'm definitely going to subscribe!

theres something with battery life on win 11. idk what it is but my laptop's battery was getting to end of its life and I made the switch from win 11 to ubuntu and oh my god the same battery that was dying in an hour of sleep turned into lasting 2-3 days on sleep mode. its not just the sleep mode everything got improved but the sleep mode difference is incredible

Thanks for Review. The issue I think with battery is using Intel Chips. Both Intel and Microsoft are hanger for data collected.

@shotech - great review. Does it overheat ? I’m planning this for work related stuff. Figma. Excel. PowerPoint etc.

[aftabahmed]

Great review! What do you think compared to other 2 in 1 laptops like Dell or HP? Is this a better alternative?

[anivmusic]

Great review! Didn’t hear about the ports much. But how’s the Thunderbolt 4 ports? Have you tried to use them with external tech? Interfaces, hard drives, etc? Do they do a goodjob? Thanks!

Good review bruh I was thinking about switching from MacBook and iPad combo to this for photo editing.

I have the i7 1T model and it only lasts MAX 2-2.5 hrs from only using OneNote, whiteboard, and little Google searching. Should I send it for exchange and repair (keeping in note that they will likely send me a refurbished device)

[tjcarlover]

I’m going to college in a year and started looking into laptops, and want something multi-role with high power with the ability to run moderate performance games. Would you recommend this?

[Shadow]

I was so ready to get this, even in spite of the price, but the battery life really deters me

[JSevillejo_ph]

Loved this. Have you tried reporting the battery life to Windows? I'm curious to know if they have recommendations or instructions for that.

[VincentGrillo-np]

Awesome review. On the fence about making the plunge and getting this or sticking to the surface laptop 7

[NickChurick]

Thanks so much for the review! I'm considering this laptop for myself. Could you clarify one question for me, please? Does it heat up heavily? And does it blow so much hot air from the grill that it's uncomfortable to operate a mouse next to it? @ShoAndTech

Amazing review, well done keep up the great work

I've got a RTX 4050 model. Overall I love it but for gaming, the screen response time is very low. Playing a game like Destiny 2 looks like a blurry mess at times as the screen can't keep up with the video card. No issue when hooked up to an external monitor. I was surprised by the poor response time paired with a 120hz refresh rate.
