While waiting for my Selenite still using my 4 years old Dell Inspiron 7000 2 in 1  biggrin.gif

Do a lot of photo editing, primary work with browsers/email/microsoft office, though my Inspiron 2 in 1 is build for ultra portable easy to carry around type of laptop with just 1.6kg but the performance is meh  sweat.gif  and the laptop casing quality is not good  rclxub.gif  it's due for change.

I have my company laptop Lenovo T430 for work, I don't use it for personal stuff mostly leave it in the office only bring back during business trip. The casing quality for T430 is good thumbsup.gif
My i7 desktop hardly use anymore I can't stay in the same place and work sometime i work in living room, on dining table, computer table in my bedroom keep moving around even in the house  tongue.gif

Hi Bro,

I just picked up my Selenite too last week.
Got similar on dota around 120++ fps.
The only thing i notice so far is the laptop speaker volume, it seems to be very soft even after increasing the volume to 80-90.
Noticed when playing youtube videos.
Not sure if you got the same issue or not.

Copy my reply from the other thread.

I'm just a occasionally gamer, spend most of my time with work and family, so far I did try league and legend and Dota 2 max out all the settings i can get 120++ fps for Dota 2 for LoL i post the screen shot below btw I never experience any throttling at least for this two game.

Actually in dota 2 video settings u can set fps higher under max fps allowed. Default is 120.
Maybe you try to increase and see.

one thing i will say why not usb port (non type c)  at the back?  so i can plug my mouse at the back of my laptop  tongue.gif 
although sometime you might want to plug into the left/right usb port for easy remover but in the situation where you have limited space or you just want the cable out of your sight usb at the back might be useful.
for the mechanical keyboard I hope the key cap can be more firmly attach to the keyboard less wobble and a little bit more resistance will be better, what you guy think?  rolleyes.gif

I dont really mind the usb port location as will be using wireless almost all the time smile.gif
As for the mech keyboard, it is one of the reasons i went with Selenite. The cap 3 brown switch is really awesome.
Though it does need some slight adjustment time to get used to.

As per liaising with our manufacturer, the refreshed interface is only compatible with the 9th Gen models at the moment as the GPU Boost feature is not available on the 8th Gen Selenites. Nevertheless, we shall officially announce once an interface revamping on the existing Command Center is released smile.gif

Planning to get the 3070 selenite pro, is it recomennded ?….anyone got issue so far wirh the unit ?

Really hard to recommend this as I had mine (2019 selenite with 8th gen processor and rtx 2060) and been having hardware probs almost every year.
2019 -> Mobo issue that took 3 months to repair
2020 -> SSD & Battery issue
2021 -> Camera issue

Its still a decent laptop if you look at the price range however with all the probs I've been having, ill definitely avoid it.
Anyways, this is just my experience of using the laptop.
