Most vendors will likely wait for the Zen 2 mobile offerings before choosing to offer AMD lineups. There are some right now using Picasso (Lenovo has several), but it’s a smarter play to wait for the better chips that more closely compare to consumer expectations for mobile devices next year. I believe it’ll be worth the wait.

I’m personally hoping/waiting for a Zen 2 system with full fledged USB 4 support. If newer Bluetooth and WiFi can be included, that would be awesome. Maybe a Radeon dGPU, too.
