Still waiting for the 16" in July! At least give us a price estimate! There have been some compromises in my 13" bought in 2022: the speakers are way too quiet, I have the option to replace them with speakers that are 80dB (louder) but have less fidelity. Both speaker types are $20 and it shows. ;( Have bluetooth speakers around for watching any video. The 3:2 aspect ratio screen can be awkward, I have to adjust screen settings to use dnfdragora on Fedora (which is admittedly terrible, anyways). Also the "expansion cards", having a USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface: they seem to hold a death grip. Perhaps I'm missing a magic technique, but I fear they can ever be removed without damaging something, either the card or the laptop. I'd suggest not counting on removing them on the fly. Now, everything else is great, and I'm definitely going to buy another.
