I have a Ser8 with the 8845hs chip. While the HX370 is superior, the 8845hs is the best value. In my Ser8 from Beelink, I have 96 GB of RAM and 4 TB 990pro from Samsung. GREAT performance but the BT sucks because of the aluminum case.

Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 > Ryzen 9 8945HS >= Ryzen 8845HS. I still like the Ryzen 8845HS for mini-PCs. Great value packed in a small package.

8745H/HS is an even better deal (practically the same performance as 8845HS and only 7% slower than 8945HS)

AI 9 HX 370 laptops are unreasonably expensive and overvalued but nevertheless better than the Snapdragon X Elite. The 8845HS is the real deal 8945hs = 🀑 intel = crap
