Notebook reviews with Samsung SSD 980 Pro 250GB MZ-V8P250BW

Wow! A gaming laptop with Alder Lake-H, a brand-new Geforce RTX 3080 Ti, and DDR5 RAM. As if that weren't enough, Schenker has installed a water-cooling port on the new Neo 15. The company sent us a pre-production sample of the Neo 15 along with a pre-production model of its XMG Oasis external water-cooling system. We test what they have to offer.
