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. [https://twitter.com/chuwidotcom/status/1581090257193213953](https://twitter.com/chuwidotcom/status/1581090257193213953)  
Still, a screen downgrade doesn’t sound the best, so I hope there is a way to get rid of some of the bugs in the first revision.  
Also, a gread writeup! I have encountered all the issues you have mentioned here.
