Mine seems to struggle massively when switching between intel to amd gpu. Whenever I open a program that automatically enables the amd gpu, the screen shuts off completely for about 5 seconds or so, before flickering back on. Other issues I've stumbled on are kernel panics (this mostly seems to happen when i leave the machine to do nothing for a minute or 5) and issues with icloud (missing documents/problems with syncing).
I've tried resetting the ram and whatnot, but it did not seem to solve any issues.

On the bright side: Battery life is even better than what it was before. :)

If my 16" goes to sleep for more than an hour or so, it won't turn back on. It takes about 5-10 minutes of the screen flashing on and off and then I'll get a Kernel Panic and the entire computer will restart. It's very frustrating.

I have the same issue with a 16 after going to sleep for over an hour, takes many tries to get the computer to power up properly, also see random times where my MacBook will just crash and shut down while using it.
Have submitted feedback, hoping next beta fixes this.
