    Check all boxes as far as nice screen, games play in ultra mode with high FPS and does not get too hot on keyboard. Hardware: good typing experience with quality build and hinge. Good management software that's bug free unlike Alienware's.

    Love this computer. It is a big one, and the charger is a deadly weapon. But it gets everything done, and looks good doing it. Gaming, work, photo editing. The charge without being plugged in is sad, the fan is kind of loud (but works well), and the sound quality is awful with default settings. You can definitely improve it, look it up on Youtube. These are the kinds of things to know before buying but they weren't a dealbreaker for me. For the price on sale, it was definitely a good decision.

    Great internals, mid everything else, loud fans

    The actual internals of this laptop are great and for the price can’t be beat. Everything outside the internals is mid at best. Display is meh, it’s not terrible but not good. The shell is plastic and lcd, felt well built and not too flimsy. The problem is the fans sound like a jet taking off next to ear. They are LOUD with all caps and eleventy exclamation points. Even at mid settings the thing sounds like a drone about to take off. If you game with noise cancelling headphones and want something cheap this is your laptop, but do it in a private office or everyone will hate you. If you need something that won’t make everyone in a 1000ft radius turn their head thinking a harrier jet is landing nearby, give this one a pass.

    If you just look at its configuration,It's a great product with a perfect balance between performance and price。But I don’t really like the keyboard light, startup sound, and light bar that activate when it is turned on. I tried various methods, turned off the startup sound, and removed the light bar, but the keyboard light could not be completely turned off during startup.I'm considering whether I should destroy the light cables.

    Overall great laptop. Hardware meets my needs and the powerful cooling system keeps the laptop from ever getting hot. Yes the fans are noisy, but I'll take it because I don't have to worry about the device overheating. I love that it has two M.2 slots and wish it also allowed for a 2.5 HDD. The customization options for the accessory lighting is awesome. I cannot comment on battery life because I only use it plugged in. For the price, this laptop meets my expectations in functionality and performance.
