I bought mine in September. Overall, a big disappointment, the battery is less than mediocre (under linux). Unfortunately I missed the refund window.
I bought it after using a mac m1, so i was somehow under impression that i am buying a laptop to be used during a train ride, or watching a movie in a bed. It's none of that, i bought another "movable desktop pc".
What battery life are you getting? It's not up to Macbook Air standards but I'd say with Fedora and actually using it, it's similar to what I was getting on the MacBook Pro. 6-7 hours or so. This is helped by the fact I can have the brightness down on the screen more than the MacBook for equivalent brightness.
It does, but barely, and it's not like I am planning "okey I am gonna watch movie in 2 hours, let's plug that thing right now". It's either I was using it, so it's not full 100%, or I wasn't, and it's 0%

Everything else is OK.

The battery doesn't last the length of a movie? Are you getting hardware decoding of the video?
