System76 Lemur Pro 2024: The Ultimate Linux Laptop?

nice review but I wouldn't be able to use this keyboard.

wtf were they thinking with this keyboard...

As a student and photographer, I was getting frustrated with my laptop having issues with Windows, and my friend installed Pop OS on it (I let him), and I absolutely love it! It just works, and is very buttery smooth. I am considering getting either the Lemur or Pangolin. Great review!

Thanks for this review! I'm surprised at how well it performed unplugged

Thanks for reviewing

Thanks! This certainly looks like it's worth my money. Massive improvements over the lemp9 I had, for sure.

Speedometer consistently uses less than 10% of desktop CPUs capacity for it's javascript tests so it's very weird seeing it used as a benchmark for anything but the barest minimum of a chromebook. Basically all decent keyboards are fully reprogrammable, especially on linux. Being impressed that HDMI works "out of the box" is also a very sad state of affairs, why wouldn't it?

Nice laptop but Is the bios fully featured as well? I hate it that most companies allow only very limited bios access.

I’m interested seeing the reprogrammable keyboard. And coreboot?? Looks great. I’d like to know if OpenBSD runs on it

Just found your channel so subbed now - good review, arrow keys don’t bother me but I can definitely see how that would get on a lot of people’s nerves… (I use Arch BTW 😉) 👍

As far as the arrow position you can adjust reassign it in the software to function the same as you would be used to.

I would have liked more performance tests, especially sustained loads and if it throttles and loses a lot of performance, mainly because: this is a U-series processor! It only comes with 2 Performance cores, 8 Efficiency cores (perform much less) and 2 ultra efficient cores for any low resource background tasks. This basically has no hyperthreading either with 14 threads (HT on P-cores). This is very different from the Core Ultra 7 155-H for example, which comes with 6 P-cores, 8 E-cores, 2-UE cores and I believe 22 threads instead. I am personally interested in this CPU since I believe it will deliver excellent battery life, but I wish we could see more performance tests.

Does the 76 system have software in pop os to configure the CPU, such as clock speed etc, because Linux was always hopeless in this respect and you had to install various software and learn how to use it, today it is a bit better. What I care most about is the ability to control the fan speed I practically turn off my fan on windows on the laptop while webrowsing, watch video/youtube, listen music etc. fans only run when I gaming.

Aren’t these still clevos rebranded? I have been wanting one of their laptops, i’d rather not pay the extra for a rebrand Chinese laptop, I liked their OS but I’m going to install a diff distro. The hardware is the main selling point for me with their order config

Might be able to use the arrow keys,, but I really do need a laptop with dedicated home/end/pgup/pgdown keys, as I also use my function keys and don't want to have to use the fn modififer key to get to them... Unless I'm using an external keyboard, but then the size and light weignt isn't as important Just want something slightly bigger without going up to something that can fit a full keyboard with numpad

The system76 logo peeled off on mine

2.2 lbs is equal to exactly 1KG.

I'd been looking for a review of the laptop since it came out. I'd love to see another one covering other things like battery life.

if only they swapped the keys... F for keyboard :( all in all very cool laptop!

Can you charge the laptop with the thunderbolt port?
