JacekJagosz pointed out in another thread that Chuwi actually teased a new version of the Minibook: > [@Minibook X hinge repair, thermal mod and other ideas megapost](https://forum.chuwi.com/t/minibook-x-hinge-repair-thermal-mod-and-other-ideas-megapost/36843/3): > > Did you see the new revision of Minibook X that is supposed to have better cooling? The fin density looks like if it had a fan, if it doesn’t that would be super weird.

I have encountered all the issues you have mentioned here. There’s an active cooling solution and a slightly smaller screen without the hole, but otherwise it’s not clear what else could change. I actually fixed my touchscreen so really the main thing I’d want to see is better battery life. Doesn’t seem likely if the space is used for the cooler though. A possible update could be the new processors that should be launched soon, maybe that’s why the laptop isn’t out yet: [Intel's N95 Processor Benchmark Leak: An Entry-Level 2023 CPU | Tom's Hardware](https://www.tomshardware.com/news/intels-n95-processor-benchmark-leak-an-entry-level-2023-cpu) It looks like the direct replacement for the N5100 could be the N95 which is almost 30% faster. The N305 would be a significant boost, an 8 core version would be great. Of course these are all questionable benchmarks. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.chuwi.com/t/minibook-x-and-minibook-8-discontinued/36745)._
