You mean the ethernet port that will break off and the power button that is not recessed so it does not power on in your bag. Great. Who puts a power button on the side of a laptop?

I have a GS63 from MSI which has the power button on the side. It can't be activated while the lid is closed, to prevent just that.

Hopefully these guys have done the same thing...

Yea... I have lenovo laptops that use a similar connector. In the short term they're all right but a failure on there makes the port useless.

Seems to be common on flip-style convertibles, because both tablet and tent configurations make keyboard-face access inconvenient.
