The current X1E uses dolby atmos speakers6) dolby atmos speakers
- 1) anyone know what kind of improvements we can expect from e.g. i7-9750H over i7-8750H?
- 2) do you know if it should be possible to later update wifi m.2 card in gen 1 to support wifi 6 (802.11ax)?
- 3) does gen 1 allow manually upgrading FHD screen to 4K?
- 4) Are both m.2 slots NVMe in gen1? or one is SATA?
- 5) does gen1 have hardware raid controller or have to use soft raid?
- 6) Based on history: Is new gen 2 base models expected to be more expensive than current prices? media mentions starting price of $1500 so should be cheaper than current starting prices $1650?
- 7) Based on history:Is lenovo running some inventory sales before launching new laptop generations?
1) From what I've read, not a huge difference in performance.
2) I think its too soon, but if I was a betting man, I'd say no.
3) Yes, you can replace the screen yourself. I believe @c0ppo did that.
4) Both memory slots are NVMe
5) No idea
6) I think you may see less discounts/promotions early on which has a indirect impact of making it pricier. Likewise we may see more aggressive discounts on the Gen1 to move inventory.
7) I don't know about prior history, but as I said in bullet six, I think that may be the case.
