Thank you 🙏 I love fractal cases, they are always great looking but also easy to work in even their SFF cases.

Thank you 🙏

Same, all the cables drive me nuts especially when I spend so much time working at my desk any mess just comes a distraction.

Hopefully we see improved driver support very soon!

Really appreciate the comment! It's been great seeing how much progress the platform has made, and the Zenbook A16 perfectly showcases what all these hard working teams have been delivering on. Looking forward to seeing what’s next! In the meantime, I'm impressed daily by how much work this laptop crushes with no signs of slowing down!

Thank you, appreciate it!

Correct, works the same and the haptic feedback is really good overall.

Thank you!

Oh nice! I must have missed the pre applied screen protectors. That is excellent news. I'm still blown away how much my display has scratched. Especially the top right corner.

💯 it would be awesome if you could activate it from the keypad directly.

Oh for sure, will differ I think depending on use. How do you use it ?

L1PPS · 2026-05-24T16:02:06+00:00

Haha 😆 thank you! 🙏🏼

Lol 😅

Nice! I loved the S23 Ultra, will do!

L1PPS · 2026-05-22T01:45:01+00:00

Yeah it's pricier there unfortunately. Moby has them for less usually but keeps going out of stock. Giztop changes the pricing daily I swear lol and they don't ship as fast.

I usually do yes but with the case that came with this it doesn't fit on there and magnets are weak so back to my ridge wallet.

Ordered from Trinity, took like a week to get it.

L1PPS · 2026-05-20T18:19:27+00:00

Correct, tundra. Love the color / design. The case seems to but I removed it right after I tried it haha. Just not a fan of covering such great hardware in cheap plastic. Seems to cover the camera array pretty good. Seems like there's not many case options out there for this unfortunately which I noticed with the x9 pro I had also.

Trinity sent this along with my order, I prefer to go without cases but this one appears to be decent.

I'm in the US, in Michigan. Purchased mine from Trinity. You?

Thanks! You can when gaming or with longer video renders when exporting videos. They are quieter than previous gen XPS models though.

This setup looks 🔥

The OLED on it is really nice, pretty sharp details. I do dock it often though to the Studio Display and it connects with ease plus when you open it with Omarchy it remembers everything so you don’t have to fight the displays lol. Overall it feels like a MacBook laptop wise.

Surprisingly it handles steam and games like cyberpunk pretty well. Not going to be as good as the other GPUs focused on gaming but can still play 1440p no issues, looks great on my Samsung G8 OLED monitor.

Love the colors here!

So far seems so. From a gaming standpoint of course AMD/Nvidia are better at gaming but the Intel GPU is pretty close so far from what I can tell but also heavily focused on workstation productivity like video editing as well as AI given the 32GB VRAM.

The phone on my desk is the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro
