I got my AMD 13 two days ago. Using Fedora 39. The most disappointing things for me so far are the touchpad (it's nowhere near the macbook ones) and the battery life. I would absolutely pay for a higher capacity battery. On the other hand, FW is light and maybe it's time for me to invest in a powerbank.

 

AMD 13. When the lid is closed, is there a way to see if the laptop is off or suspended? When I manually suspend the laptop, the power button starts pulsating slowly, but it is visible only when the lid is open. Is there a way to distinguish the suspended state with the closed lid? The charge indicator seems to be unaffected by suspended state and stays off.

Same here. Got billed today, no shipping yet. US.

Congrats! Can't wait to get billed too.

 

Sorry for the stupid anxious post. AMD 13 batch 5, has anyone in the US got charged yet? Or maybe got the laptop shipped?

 

I'm a long time Thinkpad user waiting for the AMD 13 in the batch 5. I'm going to use FW with Linux, specifically Fedora. One thing I'm very used to in Thinkpads is the 3 dedicated buttons above the touchpad, especially the middle button for pasting selected text and closing tabs in Chrome. I'd like to know how the middle button click is performed on the touchpad. Do I just click with 3 fingers?

Is 2x32GB the maximum that FW AMD 13 supports?

I have been using Arch as the main OS for about 15 years since around 2006, for me it was i3 and then sway. But I was primarily doing web development, so needed nothing too fancy, just the console, the browser, and the IDE.
