A:AnswerTo get the price point down BB often gets manufacturers to trim costs - easiest is to put a cheaper screen in - without changing the model name - hence the confusion. it's usually a $150 - $250 uplift to upgrade if you went in and configured a system from scratch on some sites - so BB looks like you are getting a huge deal, when you are just getting a good deal.
so gaming on this model will be VERY different than on a real G731GU
A:AnswerDepending on usage, you can expect 3-5 hours of battery life. You can add a 7mm thick 2.5" HDD or SSD. You can upgrade the RAM to a maximum of 2 x 16GB DDR4 2666MHz SODIMM.

A:AnswerThis is going to a real backlash with returns of these laptops...

A:AnswerYes - depending on the monitor and connection method. For example: Some monitors will have a 144hz display but offer it only through a VGA connection, while limiting HDMI connections to 60hz. Also make sure the laptop is not mirroring the screen and the laptop is set to "second screen only" while connected to the monitor.
