I really want to like system76 laptops, but I can't help but feel they are literally straight out of a prefab China warehouse, same old crummy quality plastic c

  Build quality is surprisingly good to my experience (just received a Lemur Pro), as also confirmed by a couple of reviewers of that model.

    How is the audio quality on that lemur pro. I have tinnitus and headphones make it worse. So far I have not been able to find a linux laptop with good speakers.

      The built-in speakers are the weak point of the hardware config. They are at most of mediocre quality. Maybe they are replaceable with little effort? You could send an email to System76, they have excellent customer support.

  They're Clevo systems, a reputable Taiwanese ODM that supplies many brands. Made in China but to good standards. https://clevo-computer.com/en/ https://clevo-computer.com/en/

  I switched from being a long time mac user (macbook pro) to System76 and you'll never get Apple's build quality. I find the build quality disappointing compared to apple, but otherwise decent. Personally I'm happy with the purchase as, performance wise, it's really good and I <3 Linux (but I use Arch not PopOS). Something they really have got right is that everything is just super well supported and compatible. I never have any weird hardware issues.
