Okay, technically there is one; the Asus Zenbook. But aside from that, nothing IIRC. Even the Chinese Mini-PC makers who are traditionally the first to jump on new AMD products have nothing. Why is this?

Are you new to the AMD mobile space in general? Vendors are always extremely slow on the uptake with new AMD mobile launches. This has been the case since forever. And Kraken Point is a lower tier offering with no glory to be had with attention-grabbing flagship launches, so even more so.

The last time I bought a laptop was in 2020 with Renoir, and I recall manufacturers being much faster through 2021. That explains a lot though, thanks.
