Pleasant impression and feeling of quality
Borrowed from a friend for a while, just to get familiar with the system, having used only Windows/Linux systems for over 20 years. The first thing that stands out is the quality of materials and assembly, simply top-notch, nothing creaks or feels loose. Next, an excellent IPS screen with high resolution and 100% sRGB. My eyes, sensitive to "PWM," felt rested and enjoyed this display. Another very pleasant aspect for me is the AMAZING sound, especially for such a small body where you wouldn't expect it. For the first time in my life, I didn't feel like using headphones while watching a movie—the sound is rich, expansive, with pronounced mids and highs, and at maximum volume, it fills the entire room like a speaker. Moving on to the touchpad—it's a masterpiece, my Asus, which costs no less, isn't even close to matching the quality, positioning accuracy, and simply the tactile feel of using it; I had no desire to take out a mouse. The keyboard is also decent—everything is of high quality. As for the system—at times it's a "dark forest," but that is all resolved with experience. Overall, everything is very fast, predictable, no glitches or freezes. Meanwhile, the version I had was the basic 8/256 one, and I didn't feel even a hint that it lacked anything: Telegram, Safari, Chrome with 10+ tabs, GIMP, several folders with photos all open—everything runs smoothly and lasts about 12 hours on battery, with passive cooling and absolutely no noise.

Also pleasantly surprised by the small 30 W charger, very compact, but fully handles its job.
Would like at least one USB-A port, thinner display bezels, and charging like in previous or next generations - magnetic, because when one of the two ports is occupied, it's not ideal, especially if you want to connect a hub and it just doesn't fit.

A very well-balanced machine with a wide range of positive qualities.

A masterpiece of industrial design. Very lightweight, thin, and compact. Splendid screen, maybe a higher refresh rate would be nice, but for content creation and consumption, it provides very rich display. The M series processors have resulted in a wonderful combination of power, speed, and battery life, which in turn are efficient on hardware and heat management. 10-15 hours of active, silent operation - in a compact case, it's really good.
+ Design, ergonomics, lightness, performance, and autonomy, fingerprint scanner
- 60 Hz, not enough ports, additional dock with connectors or adapters may be needed
Slightly overpriced, but justified - not just because of the brand
