Now this one seems closer to reality, still expensive.

$1000 gets you a well-built thin and light, also Evo Edition. Weirdly the manufacturer claims 12.5H battery life when Evo Ed. requires almost that in wifi surfing. Also weirdly, it has "Arc integrated graphics" which I never heard of.

It's new for the meteor lake generation based on the discrete graphics cards recently released. Reviews are not out yet, but this is the first chiplet release for Intel. Seems like IPC is not improved, but the overall package may be.
