Like OOP, I would've preferred a Framework, but since they didn't have an AMD option at the time, I chose this. In fact, it was the ONLY laptop in the entire market at the time which met my criteria.
I've been using it for over 10 months now and it's held up pretty well. Running Nobara (Fedora-based gaming distro) and it runs incredibly well, everything worked out-of-the-box, including all the Fn keys and suspend/resume.
I used to get around 40-45 FPS playing Diablo 4 under Proton-GE, and it was more than playable (I don't play it anymore btw). The games that I do play currently are a bit more old-school, like Project Diablo 2, Age of Empires 2, Skyrim etc and some retro gaming on emulators, all of which it handles like a champ.
I'm glad this is getting some attention now. We need more AMD-based and Linux-friendly laptops and end Intel's monopoly in this space.
