        A pleasant experience with incredible performance.

        This laptop has been my daily driver from a month. Monitor is 240hz with a 3ms response time. A magnet of finger stains. While I would have loved an AMD variant, this is by no means a hinder. Minecraft with shaders runs at the limited 240 fps. Cyberpunk at highest, no problem. Performance goes beyond my desktop 3070 can perform. That is impressive. Now, the build is some smooth plastic. Not the cheap plastic kind but it's not your razer unibody-aluminum build. The AniMe vision gimmick certainly is an eye turner, it's nice you can customize the pixels to show any image as long as it's properly scaled. I have no rgb turn on due to preference. Battery life have last me about 5 hours-ish browsing the internet. I have not done a proper test for the battery but having the option of charging just with the usb C option, is a life savior. I love this laptop and recommend it for the current laptop landscape.

        Performance

        The laptop is very unique. When it comes to gaming? It’s already got great graphics. The LED lights are so fun and customizable. The Ani-vision on the back is so cool too. It runs programs Like Aoto-Cad- if you know what that is( it’s a program to make blueprints. The charger must stay with it at all times though. The battery can not last more than a hour and a half I think, understandable when it’s running off very high GPU. But it’s very nice

        Portable Gaming Rig

        The laptop works great. Runs hot and CPU can get throttled at times. The battery lasts maybe two hours with light use. The screen is VERY bright. Mini-LED does show some blooming, but it is much better than standard LED on HDR content. Thunderbolt 5 is great to use with an eGPU if wanting to do so. The quick-release for the bottom cover to upgrade SSDs and RAM is a nice touch. The only one thing is that it is all plastic, and the palm rest does get very oily looking very fast and is kind of a pain to keep clean. So, I got a sticker cover for it, and IMHO it looks much better.
