I’m incredibly excited to have this new machine. I’ve been waiting since I ordered on Dec.29th after returning several other computers due to compatibility issues. This laptop works like a dream.
Lemur Pro i7 1355U 40GB DDR5 1TB PCIE4 Pop!_OS 256GB PCIE3 Windows 11 1080p 60hz Display HDMI 2.1 Thunderbolt 4
It’s so light and sleek I love it! I can’t believe how thin and light this thing is. The case is simple and beautiful as well. Ports galore for an ultra portable. Pop!_OS was preinstalled, and installing Windows to the m.2 drive I threw in when I got it was a breeze. The drivers and full spec/repair database they provide is such a breath of fresh air from the horrible service you get from companies like Dell.
If I had to complain I wish they had used easy access bottom panel ports so you don’t have unscrew all 12 screws to access things like RAM and m2 slots. The “System 76” logo on the front is decal’d on instead of being a more seamless graphic like you’d find from major brands.
Minor gripes. I love this thing. It’s fast, light, quiet, and the battery life is nuts.
Very nice! I was just looking at reviews on this. Really nice machine in every way, except maybe for the camera, and minor points off for the display being “only” 1080p. I have a lovely framework 13", but am jealous of the Lemur’s battery life.
I prefer 1080p 60hz laptop displays. Much lighter on the battery. I plug it into an external 120hz HDR 4k display when I need the crispiness or extra workflow.
Very interesting. Do you have any more info about the relationship between 1080p/60hz and battery? It sounds intuitively true, I’d just like to learn more.
I’m not the guy, and this is not really an information source, but Android seems to agree that higher resolution and higher refresh rate uses more power, which seems intuitive to me as well.

Higher resolution and refresh rates use more battery. You can search around if you want specifics.
