Ok so I have some feedback that is about a week out of date now, but may be of use.
I had it connected to a monitor, and there was no blinking on the display. There is some latency, but it was not unusable. Not gaming ready, but I could easily work on tickets or communicate with text based messaging easily enough. I used a USB-C dock with it and had no discernible battery drain, and I think it was able to charge even. Using a Microsoft Display Adapter, the previous version to the existing one, with not fully updated firmware.
