I am here to just report that i don’t have this problem yet but i get afraid that one day i will have. I got a battery problem having less then specified on the website and they refund me some money but they couldn’t send a battery to replace it.
When i saw Chris review and the comments behind this laptop i went bananas and bought it, but ofc there isn’t a perfect device out there and Chris also warned about the finicky of the power button.
About the Function keys not being able to alternate with action keys which i also want specially for games i found a way to address it but it’s not perfect.
I use SharpKeys and currently this is my setup. Cant use f2(despite setting it up) f6 and f7 (cant find the correct mapkey) and f1 only works or some games but doesn’t work on windows. Also when you bind them, they also stop working as action keys.
