Anyone trying out the gen 16 outdoors? Seemed like from the specs it would be one of the better options (matte + high NITs), but curious if anyone has an anecdote? Usable? Usable in the shade?

I understand you might be looking for community user opinions, but if you haven’t seen it yet, NotebookCheck.net has a couple pictures under their testing’s display section. Outdoors under sunlight and outdoors under shade.
Their site is also good if you want to compare to other laptops you might have. They have a size comparator, among other things.

I was using it a while ago, playing Helldivers 2 on my balcony.
When the sun was shining brightly, I had to put up a parasol and turn up the brightness in the game, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to see enough. That was in the dark scenes of the game though.
For text editing and normal browsing it was just bright enough for me.
My verdict: Usable in the shade.
