it's edge 50 ultra

it's hilarious how this was considered by "youtubers" an outdated model when I was buying it.

It's because the 8sg3 is a terribly botched chip, to the point where it requires comically overengineered cooling to function properly.

Yeah... and it's still a great cpu. What are consequences to the user? I failed to find a use case where it makes a sweat. It's insanely good price to value ratio.

Once again: are there any known problems that are not theoretical? I'm having 1,5 days+ with screen on time that I feel ashamed to admit, plus as I wrote before, never had it overheat despite gaming on external devices etc.

It is. I only wish it wasn't curved screen. It's a gimmick with no benefits and several negatives.
