Thing is I don't see a webcam on this thing, and there's no word on whether it matches the MAG's thermal performance....And it has zoning backlighting but hey that's not that bad....

We just have to wait and see, it looks good though (like a blade 15 tbh).

Yeah, the omission of the webcam in the marketing imagery is odd. It does have one though.

Unsure about thermal performance, but I imagine it would be comparable to the MAG 15 as it uses the same chassis and components.

XMG FUSION 15 will have the same webcam and the same mechanical per-key backlight keyboard that you can expect from this Intel reference design. The chassis and the thermal components will ensure stellar thermal capacity. Although our performance profiles (Silent, Balanced, Enthusiast) will be even further refinded and will go beyond Intel's reference. For more information and discussion, feel free to use this thread.

I am fairly certain their representative answering questions on their reddit thread said the keyboard has per-key RGB lighting

As I can't post links, search for:

[XMG Community]

per-key RGB is correct.

So basically this is the overpriced EU version of the EXACT same laptop that Eluktronics offers... If you configure the XMG to be the same config as a standard preconfigured MAG 15, the XMG is 1809,99 EURO. The mag is 1499,99 USD => approx. 1370 EURO.

This has to be a bad joke right ?

You might have forgotten to compare VAT, components, warranty and other details. We have discussed this at length in this thread.
