    CPU performance is as expected but runs hot even when performing ‘normal’ tasks such as web browsing or writing documents. Battery life was lower than expected but it is my first gaming laptop so perhaps around an hour is normal.

    I bought this laptop for my nephew. It did not boot up as fast I expected for Windows 10. The touchpad did not work after installation. After reading the issue on the Internet, we have to enable touchpad manually. Not sure whether this was disabled for any reason. Overall, it is a decent laptop for his school work and light gaming activities.
