It actually weighs the same as the first one, 4.8 pounds,
or about 2.13 kg. Not bad, if you don't have to carry it around airports. :)

My present laptop is heavier, so 2.2 Kg is an upgrade. :) But the power brick is no doubt going to be bigger and heavier, since my current lappy doesn't use that much current. The new one has a 45 watt TPD CPU and 95 watt Nvidia 1050 Ti GPU that will be turned off when I'm compiling. I hope the turbo extra super-duper fan speed button works on the new one in Linux if I see it getting too hot; if I'm lucky, it's done in acpi and Linux will just work with it, as well as the rest of the function hot keys.

Looking forward to reading the reports in the forums.
It looks like a great machine.
