3 Comments on ASUS Also Announces ExpertBook BM1
We want the Specs. in clear easy to read detail in the OP, without having to click on things or skim through marketing B.S.
A Rembrandt rebrand in the Strix Point generation, and a bunch of enterprise/pro oriented features. So strictly on the specs side of things, a thoroughly unimpressive and exorbitantly expensive product to the ordinary consumer who isn't the intended audience.
It fails to state it is 3rd gen, or what graphics apart from the brand.
