An amazing machine! And by buying one of their laptops, you're also *supporting* a great company which respects your privacy. The only issue I have is that pesky right arrow on the keyboard overlapping with the Numpad. It just flares up my OCD lol.
Bro don't believe on that chat it's totally fake they're trying to snatch your money
Is this gnu compliant?
I use an MSI laptop and it has the same right arrow placement lol
what about battery life? I mean using it, not idle
FINALLY!!!!! A thorough review of a System76 laptop! Great job! I've been waiting to see a review like this before purchasing. I can finally purchase it! THANK YOU!
Glad to see this finally! And when you were teasing this on twitter I knew it was a system76 product. Thanks for the video Brandon
I just ordered the Lemur Pro just the other day. Looking forward to it coming in!
Great review and definitely and big contender for my next laptop purchase.
This was a *sick* review 💪😁 Quick Recovery!
You're a strong guy to do a video when sick like that. We appreciate you, sir!
Would be great to add some comments about battery life, both for the "video playback" case that seems to have become the standard as well as for running some workload. I tend to use laptops as laptops, not just mobile desktops, so knowing how much time and how much performance I can get when not tethered to the wall is always useful =)
Oh! I'm so glad they have a 4k now! I actually considered a system76 laptop not too long ago because I really like them as a company, but a 4k display is a non-negotiable for the work I do, and they had none at the time.
@Sony Alpha Adventure honestly, having to read/write text for 10+ hours a day is made *much better* having a crisp, nice 4k display. I'm a minimalist in many ways when it comes to my setup, but 4k screens are second only to the jump from HD to SSD in the quality-of-life improvement in a laptop.
You DO NOT want Linux on a 4k display, it's just not there yet. Linux battery life is abysmal on 1080p, imagine how useless it will be on 4k.
@Sony Alpha Adventure Video Editing, Photo Editing, Graphics Design and Photography
@Sony Alpha Adventure Alright then...🤷🏽♂
@@MrGamelover23 I've actually been using Linux on a 3k laptop + external 4k monitors for years with lowly Intel integrated graphics and it works just fine. Of course the battery life isn't great but I'm always plugged when I'm using the monitor anyway. It's honestly not that bad.
very cool laptop ( i wish can get a system76 laptop but they are very expensive ) , good video and i hope you feel better . Have a good day😀
This for sure is something I want to buy. Imagine that with Gentoo!
If it's like the Lemur Pro, it is not a plastic case - it is magnesium (which also does love to show off fingerprints).
Could you make a comparison video of the best laptops that are supporting linux out out of the box like the system 76 laptops and hp dev, etc.? Also take care man if you are sick maybe you should take rest.
Definitely my next laptop. Go Eagles!
does it have any build ion feature for maintaining the oled screen in good health? e.g. preventing burn in?
i have an asus vivobook and considering installing pop os into it
but my main concerns are 1.oled burn in 2.how to secure boot enable 3.battery management
any thoughts/recommendations?
Welcome to the mixed resolutions nightmare, buddy! I have a main 4K monitor and two extra 1080p ones. I'm one of those crazy people who likes 100% scaling on 4K, even on my 32''display. A nice tip is using the large text option in GNOME's accessibility settings, that is the sweet spot for me, without changing scaling at all. And as far as the 1080p monitors go, the scale won't match but you get used to it very quickly
@@gghost-2323 There’s just bad workarounds, it’s the definition of a workaround
Anyone else who has these issues, try unplugging the HDMI and restart. Plug it back in after it boots to home screen. Then change the settings in display.
Just switched my Mac over to Linux mint , so far everything has been great.
Looking into purchasing a system 76 laptop in the near future.
Dell,Lenovo and hp need to start offering mint and pop os !
importing system76 laptops into the eu is a gigantic pain in the neck, i think ill have to take a look into tuxedo computers instead as they're based in Germany
I'd love to have a nice aluminum shell, unfortunately the manufacturing isn't quite there yet to make that cheaply. Most will take a solid block and mill it, which is hyper expensive. A piece of sheet metal stamped into shape would be far easier and cheaper, but you'd have tiny little lips here and there that couldn't exist and allow for extra mount points and whatnot. So it's kind of a tradeoff unless they use steel, which has all sorts of problems too, but it would make welding easier so it could be more than just a stamping. Not that they can't weld aluminum, just that steel is easier.
how good is the cooling though... what temps is the CPU and GPU hitting when pushing it to the max? Some gaming laptops can do that like 80C, while others with same specs have worse cooling and hit like 100C and start throttling. Thats more what I would want to know if I got one for gaming.
But 4k (which eats the battery, causes scaling issues and makes no difference unless you stick your nose on the screen) is the most important, who cares about actual performance 😁
How can you get that pc with that screen resolution? System76’s web all the laptops only have the fhd option. I’m pretty interested in buy a laptop from this company but the resolution of the screens is the only barrier to me for buy it. Can you help me out?
i have that one ,but the 1080 screen instead and they didnt offer the 4k on their site at the time
In excess of $2000 for this laptop configuration? Kind of an understatement, since I priced it out at over $2600. Too rich for me. I'll stick with used business-class laptops off lease and sold on ebay or at local e-waste recyclers.
Could you compare something with a 4070 with a M2 MacBook pro 16 (or anything with an M2 pro chip)?
I’m a fan of System76. I love their products. As a Mac user, I’m finding hard to make a switch. I know you own a Mac as well. How hard is to ignore the eco system that Apple provides. As my Mac don’t get updates anymore, I’m still confused whether to switch to System76 or not.
I went from Mac to Pop with no problem... But I'm in IT. If you're in a creative profession, you'll probably run into problems.
if your mac is no longer getting updates then at some point you'll need to upgrade. What I did was upgrade to a m1 mac and then turn my old mac into a linux machine. Its awesome
Hey there! I'm sorry to have to ask you this but can you do a video on Grub theming on Fedora? I've looked at tons of different tutorials online but I can't change the resolution no matter what.
Did you try grub customiser program?
your beard grew in 1 second :D
How’s video editing on the oryx pro?
How is the sound on this laptop?
Is there a way to swap Ctrl and Alt?
I prefer macOS style shortcuts. It was my main pain on Pop_OS!, i ended up compiling few projects from sources and then lost about 4 hours trying to config em and still failed. Despite I'm a programmer myself. One little thing that is in macOS system settings is seems to be impossible to achieve on a *customisable* linux.
Yes, you can customize all the keyboard shortcuts, that being said ymmv with specific apps as to whether you can customize their shortcuts
@@iaphlnt I want to customize my keyboard, not shortcuts in every single app I use.
For example, i want copy/paste anything with Alt+C/Alt+V by swapping Alt and Ctrl on a low level, so for the system and apps it’s still Ctrl+C/V
@@epicmapuse sxhkd. It's a bit confusing to set it up so it swaps keys but once you do it works great
Thor makes a great review.
for java full stack this laptop is perfect or not ?
I really need oled on my laptop but oh well at least it won't get burnin
How does it behave with 27" 5K display?
Also, does System75 disable Intel Management Engine in all their systems?
I don't think you can disable the Intel engine on modern cpus. The last cpu where you can try disable it is the dual core duo
I hope they will add OLED quirks to their new COSMIC desktop. After all, they make this stuff for their hardware, right?
o ubuntu vanilla ta quase pronto vai roda de boa
Bro don't belive on that comment they're totally scammers they're just trying to snatch money
@@spidysensesyouyt5783 They follow me everywhere I can't count the number of reports I did any more, looks like it's still here
👍Nice!
What do people use these laptops for? I've always wondered, you sit in cafe's and try to get windows programs to work on Linux or something?
I really dont understand why linux community does not prioritize the scaling issues, they are a bummer for everybody who want to use such devices, I mean how I am supposed to buy such machine when it will make my work horrible with my external monitors. Sure you can use just the laptop, but I personally think this laptop is by default meant to be paired with external monitors considering the power it can utilize. Until we have this annoying issue fixed alongside battery issues we will never be able to cross that line where people buy linux machines.
Nice
$239 for the upgrade to 1TB Gen 4 is robbery lol. Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus 1TB is constantly on sale on Amazon for $100-120. For $239 you can easily get 2TB.
Yea it's kinda like phones with the easy profit, but on laptops you can easily upgrade the storage yourself. That's why when I buy a laptop I always choose the bare minimum spec in terms of storage and ram and upgrade it myself when it arrives.
If the battery life is so short it's better to just get a desktop at this point.
Jellyfin wont install on latest pop os, can someone help with that? :/
Oh no, you shaved that majestic beard.
ON NOVEMBER!!! What heresy is this?!!!!
Holy crap! Did you run Cities Skylines on this laptop?
"I need something with very little wobble" he says with a glass of wine next to his laptop 😂
@TEXT ON TELLEGRAM 👉 Official_TechHut SCAM!
left out battery review... which is the biggest pain on linux laptops, on purpose?
Even though you are unwell you sound like someone who has been taking ashwagandha since 4 weeks and got a deep voice cause of high T lol
I just wish they sold laptops with other keyboard layouts(Specifically, I'm looking for Finnish/Nordic), that's one of the only things keeping me from getting this laptop
True, the same with their keyboards i think. I really wish they offered products with the nordic layout.
@@habboelites5212 I think I read that it's possible to replace the keyboard (I can't just use stickers, the shape of some keys is different) but that is a tad bit more tinkering than I'd like when it's a 3,000€ laptop that's at stake
what a beard-change :D
Only complaint is pop os is a train wreck, thankfully you can just pull the pop shell
in what sense is pop os a train wreck? mind elaborating
how the hell you upgraded ddr4 to ddr5 (2:45)???!!!!
5:33 -- Kensington lock :-\ And that was miniDispayPort :-\
Awesome machine, but there's something so special about running a lightweight distro on garbage hardware. I don't know if I'm ready to give that up.
Upgrading from DDR4 SODIMM to DDR5 is possible? how? or am I getting it wrong?
It depends on the motherboard / cpu. Latest Intel chips support running both ddr4 and ddr5. Latest amd chips only support ddr5 on the other hand
*Mini-DP (Display Port).. Not Mini HDMI.
@TechHut what systems can you edit on it? I’m an avid editor. Would love to use something like that. My 2017 iMac Pro is a piece offucking shit.
Cheers
I bought one of these. I installed Win 10 but I'm having trouble finding windows 10 drivers for the H.I.D, (trackpad). Does anyone one know where these maybe obtained?
Does windows update not auto install them / detect them?
Would system76 be mad if I bought their laptop and then purged the disk and installed arch on it
Nah, they actually makes it easier to install any OS
You should have never shaved man.
Every time I look at a machine like this, it makes me realise that MacBooks are not overpriced like many people say. I'd happily pay a bit more for a machine where I have really good software support and I don't have to find workarounds for basic things. Also after moving to an M1 system, I never want to use x86 again.
Mac took a huge L when they took away the removable/upgradable memory and Drives. Wish they had never done that.
@@Wilsonandcars I just spec'd mine with 32GB memory and 1TB storage. With the unified memory architecture, upgradable memory probably wouldn't work. Also considering how fast the thunderbolt transfer is, working with an external drive when required isn't noticeable.
Unfortunately, you need to spend the money upfront instead of having the choice to make changes later, but moving from x86-64 to M1 has literally changed my workflows and I have never been more productive. I definitely wouldn't say Apple took an L.
@@nitesh-maharaj Why are you defending a company for its anti-consumer behavior? You're the consumer, you're supposed to hate things that take away options from you, and that's exactly what apple loves doing on a regular basis. I understand you like your new M1 and apple did get many things right with it, but that shouldn't excuse their anti-consumer behavior or any things that they got wrong with it, because that's what they want - people to just accept anything they do as okay. It's not okay, and you shouldn't be okay with this. Those are your options that are being limited by a tech giant. By saying that's okay you're screwing over all the people for whom that's not okay. Why should apple say if I can or can't upgrade my storage or RAM on the hardware that I bought and own?
@@bloodraven2537 Hey dude, you’re entitled to your viewpoint on upgradable parts. Maybe you shouldn’t support any smartphone manufacturer, because they won’t let you upgrade memory or storage.
For me it’s a tool that I use to do my work and Macs are solid and reliable tools. I’m not going to subject myself to a crappy user experience to make some sort of point that nobody will hear.
If you want to upgrade your machine, then buy an upgradable machine, but trying to get others to fall inline with your view is like trying to convert people to your religion.
I don’t care about Apple. If a company like System76 built machines that functioned better, I’d happily buy the better machine. I have zero loyalty to Apple, but right now they have the best machines for me.
@@nitesh-maharaj I am not trying to get you to buy upgradable things. It's okay to buy and like Apple products. There is a lot to like about them. But there are also issues like upgradability. And you CAN do things about it - write Apple a lovely email with your thoughts on their stance on repairability and upgradability or go support the right to repair movement. Be vocal about these issues on social media. That is way better than just not buying their products.
About smartphones, it's sadly already the norm to have parts not be upgradable or even easily replacable, but also the argument could be made that they solder things and make the phone un-openable to save space and make the phone slimmer. The same can't be said about Apple that literally makes their devices not works with 3rd party standard parts like SSDs and require hacky workarounds. That's what you shouldn't be okay with, because it's deducting from the overall quality and ease of use of the product.
I'm not trying to be a linux zealot here. I'm just trying to make a point that the less vocal people are about tech giants trying to limit their choices and control over the devices they buy and own, the more the companies are going to do it, because people are okay with it. That's why you shouldn't be okay with it.
what is the battery life like? i can't see it in the youtube sections
You can mix screen dpi with fractional scaling on Ubuntu using xorg, POP OS is a big let down I personally removed it.
ubuntu vanilla ta quase pronto tem novidade no gerenciador de pacotes
I just don’t understand why the AMD options are so few and all the “performant” laptops come with an NVIDIA GPU.
If I was going to be using Windows, sure, RTX 40 series all the way.
I do not want to deal with the headache that is NVIDIA/Linux driver compatibility.
I already deal with enough weird issues dual booting my desktop and just want something that works.
Thing is, I’m not even an AMD guy. Every computer I’ve ever owned or built has had Intel and NVIDIA hardware.
Still, for Linux and open source, AMD wins everyday. And when I finally go to spend money on AMD, their offerings are meager. Between Purism and System76, there’s like 3 to choose from that don’t have 40 series cards and all come with iGPU. And underwhelming parts for things like screens.
Le sigh, concessions must be made I suppose..
Amazing machine
Mid distro.
Feel free to disagree
Yo where beard
Yeah nvidia is just still trash with wayland. With my AMD GPU I feel like I run into a lot less issues with wayland but on my nvidia desktop its just a horrible expirience. Xorg just feels outdated, I mostly notice that on laptops with like multigesture touchpads, multiple monitors, touchscreen and so on.
Fk no, no pardon for the voice, straight to jail with this one.
from what I know windows is much better with mixed resolutions
Is 4K really necessary? IMO, no. 1440p is more than good enough for a 15" screen, beyond which you're just actively killing the battery, which is stupid to me. I hope Linux does DPI scaling better soon.
4k on anything less than 17” is pointless. 2k 120Hz is the sweet spot.
Amazing but 2k dollars
Yet another linux laptop review with no compiling test, or running mutiple virtual machines, and running 3 or more monitors at once.
Please find a way to stop saying 'go ahead' so much.
Can you give me this laptop 💻
Why is there not a clear discussion of price and a comparison to similar laptops for a similar price…. Poor review…
miss the beard, now all linux authority lacks true neckbeard credibility! /s
Only Intel on all System76 laptops... Laaaaaame
Glossy screen bleh
OMG... stop playing the games and start writing them... that's what these things are for.
Everything its ok but this nvidia inside? JUST NO!!!
Make it 2K and I'm sold. There is no difference of 2k and 4k in laptop.
and still 16:9 in 2022. wtf are they thinking?
16:9 display in 2023 wtf
