This laptop is pretty versatile. I'm constantly working on the go, and feel like this laptop is a good option if you like to travel like myself too. The battery life is pretty decent and I haven't had any problems with charging it quickly. It's sleek and professional looking, so you can bring it to work without it sticking out like some of the other gamer laptops (for example - Alienware has this distinctive chunky look to it and it's really heavy, so I never felt like I could bring it with me to my classes or meetings). The build for the frame is really solid, but it's still light without weighing me down when I have to carry it in my purse while walking on my commute. The screen is clear even on a bright day so you can bring it pretty much anywhere. I live in sunny SoCal too, but the screen isn't glossy so it won't have that annoying glare if you want to study outside. Other pluses are that it comes with 32GB RAM and a 2070 graphics card for playing games. The specs are also good enough to use for VR gaming which makes it convenient to bring around to different areas of the home or office. The HDMI/ethernet ports and power plug are in the back so it's got a clean look from the front & sides. I'd recommend this to some of my friends, and even my coworkers who are currently looking for a good computer while working from home.

A very capable gaming laptop that is discreet in its styling so as not to attract too much attention to itself that most gaming laptops normally do with their over-the-top cosmetics. Besides the specs, This is one of the main reasons I chose this laptop over others. The performance is what you would expect given the specs so I'm not going to bore you with those details. Instead I'll briefly go over what might be different compared to other gaming laptops with similar specs. The display is decent and bright enough. Not the best, not the worse but does the job. No complaints. The speakers are something to be desired. Very tinny sounding and on the softer side. Not a problem if you plan on using a headset. I haven't used the webcam but it is 720p. Some competitors are 1080p. Under load, the laptop's fans kick in and can be pretty loud. Again, not a problem if you plan on using a headset. XPG's software allows you to set the fan speed to regular when in performance mode and that'll reduce the noise. I would refrain from doing that as it's better to keep your laptop as cool as possible to extend its longevity. The keyboard is a high point and better than most. The keys have good travel for a laptop and the RGB lighting is per key instead of per zone like others. This was another reason for choosing this laptop over others because I plan to do a lot of typing on it. A big disappointment for me is the Thunderbolt port and the lack of being able to charge the laptop on it. Adata's product brochure mentions that you can do charging through this port but I have been unable to do so. I wanted to charge the laptop through this port instead of using the included laptop charger because that brick is huge and heavy. The wireless connections, both the bluetooth and internet, have locked up on me or disconnected every now and then. A bit of a nuisance but solved by removing and re-adding the bluetooth device and disabling and re-enabling the network adapter. These things are basically what I wanted to focus on in this quick review. Hope it helps your decision making!

Excellent laptop! I've been using it for years and only just retired it. Not because anything is wrong with it, but because I finally have a proper gaming PC. 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD made this thing an absolute MONSTER. It's put up with a lot from me and probably needs a new battery nowadays, but it has worked flawlessly for me for several years. I even streamed games on Twitch with just this laptop and it did excellent.
