    That would make more sense if you couldn’t set the old LCD panel to 45 already. There’s still an advantage to doubling each frame, especially in reducing latency on frame drops, but I don’t think there are any refresh targets under 60 the old panel couldn’t match after they introduced the manual refresh control feature.

    The battery life seems much, much better, though. There are already some preview benchmarks that say at minimum TDP you can get to double digit hours on this thing. That’s nuts for a x64 handheld device.
