This is the best computer that I personally have used. Granted I'm biased because my previous computer was very out of date, but this is still a very nice laptop. The display is great and I can run my games all on max or near max settings, something I've never been able to do previously. I also love the backlit keyboard as typing on a laptop in the dark has previously been difficult for me if I can't manage to find my starting position (never been a home-grown typer).
Of course it's not without problems but there's only a couple I've really come to be aware of. The laptop itself is an absolute fingerprint magnet. The smooth material used on the keyboard face of the laptop and the brushed metal lid need wiped down frequently.
Another problem I've experienced is the microphone cuts out periodically when I'm on a call in Discord while gaming with a buddy. This can be solved with a headset, which is generally preferable to any listening party over a laptop microphone anyway, but it's still a minor annoyance.
