Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the impressive performance and graphics capabilities of the m18 R2 18" 165Hz Gaming Laptop, frequently praising its large screen size ideal for gaming and work. However, some users noted the laptop's considerable weight and relatively short battery life as drawbacks. The large screen, while appreciated by many, also necessitates a larger carrying case.

    Awesome machine. Needed the large screen so went for the 18". It's almost like having a desktop. I gave it 5 stars because I don't really use it as a portable. For those that need to be "un-plugged" please be aware that the battery pretty much sucks. To be expected running this setup.
