  Ryzen?

  Ryzen is non proven CPU / GPU in mobile environment - just because game lovers like it does not mean everyone should have it.

  HD panels should be banned at this stage in 2018.

  Why, so we can waste battery life and deal with Windows such fantastic handling of DPI scaling?

  HD!=FHD. HD = 1366x768, the battery gap between that and 1920x1080 is minimal these days. FHD vs 4k is still ugly on the battery front; for that and cost FHD is still a reasonable option IMO.
  
  Having a pair of 3k laptops for home/work and a 4k monitor on my desktop at home DPI scaling is mostly a non-issue at this point IMO for everyday usage. Browsers scale, the OS scales, video is almost always scaled anyway. Unless you're using an obsolete image editing tool or playing old games it's nothing worth worrying about anymore.

  I keep forgetting that "HD" somehow doesn't mean 1080p.
  
  We still have a decent amount of problems with scaling in our environment.

  Not every one needs higher than HD panels

  I'm more interested in AMD mobile ryzen than Intel for now. Especially after 'Meltdown'

  Thunderbolt 3? Thunderbolt 3 could make these killer notebooks with possibility to attach external GPU.
