Interesting that the FW13 is the least efficient Ryzen laptop (by far) in terms of power consumption. The Acer Swift wins hands down in terms of efficiency, but clearly suffers on the performance front. The P14s, however, has a lower peak wattage despite being on par, performance-wise, with the FW13.
I wouldn’t be surprised that an integrated and optimized system is more efficient than a modular setup is. I feel most people understood there were going to be some trade offs going to a modular system like this. The important thing is that in a few years, you can just drop in a new main board with better processor, something you won’t be able to do with the other laptops
