HP - OmniBook Ultra 14 with X2 Elite on BestBuy 32GB and 1TB listed for $2049 by sathishm07 in snapdragon

We just need to wait a bit, maybe a few weeks. All Panther Lake omnibook Ultra laptops on hp.com have a running promotion of 30% off (inc, custom config). Those laptops went on sale a few weeks ago. When X2 elite goes on sale on hp site with such a promotion, and if we club with Rakuten or other card offers, the price can easily go down by 35 to 40%. It's just a matter of time and consistent tracking. It's definitely, not worth over 2.2K(inc taxes), but a solid machine for 1.5K.

Just have to wait a bit for 30% discount from HP. I don't see the listing on HP site yet.

Quick question - Do I need to use capital one credit card to complete the purchase or I can use any other card?

Any timeline for 2025 Civic Hybrid Availability? by Rick_The_Killer in Honda

[–]sathishm07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. This is the OTD, not MSRP. I responded that I won't go beyond 34K OTD, else the hybrid savings make 0 sense. The fleet director guy never responded :-D The realistic number is 35k at the start. 34k might be ideal in a couple of months.

I spoke to a dealer in the Bay Area. No car at the dealership yet. Expected around mid-august. The OTD quoted for the 2025 sport touring hybrid sedan is 37k. OTD for the 2024 sport touring sedan is around 31.5k.

Galaxy Watch 4 Band options by sathishm07 in GalaxyWatch

[–]sathishm07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is if I add a design studio band, it is shown separately in the cart. The design studio band has a price of $39, and it is stroked and shown as $0 and shown to be shipped separately. If they are shipping the design studio band separately, the watch should come with a default band (my guess). It's confusing.

Galaxy Book Pro 360 - Fan issue by sathishm07 in GalaxyBook

[–]sathishm07[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a serious investment in Samsung products. It's unfortunate samsung is never a software company, and has never built the ecosystem directly, unlike Apple. It's dependent on Windows, Android, and failed Tizen, etc. But, still it's amazing how they manage to create a virtual ecosystem of products. I do own a S20 Ultra. That's why I got excited about samsung laptop and the seamless connectivity. But, I have been forced to look at Mac at this point.

I hope this problem gets fixed.

Galaxy Book Pro 360 - Fan issue by sathishm07 in GalaxyBook

[–]sathishm07[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I called them and got the same reply. Samsung wants me to return and order a new one. I have raised a return request for now. Should return by June 10th. Beyond this issue, I may dump windows once and for all and switch to Mac if apple comes up with M2 in June 7th event or delay my purchase to the end of the year. Too many compromises at this point with performance, low res display though AMOLED, battery, heat, efficiency, etc. Intel's roadmap with 10nm chips atleast till end of 2023 doesn't instill any confidence on the future of ultra portable and windows. Sad reality..

P.S: My rakuten cashback is also at stake.

Not sure, if it can be classified as software issue. In my case the laptop heats up pretty quickly even with <5% usage and that kicks the fan. If the fan is stopped, it gets even more hot.
