OK for gaming but poor quality
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The laptop is OK for gaming, but iutsude if that the price for this is not worth it. After a few months if purchase, the keyboard stopped working and hasn't worked since. There are also a few keys on the keyboard that have stopped working/stopped responding. I would definitely invest in a better laptop because this one is cheaply made and im not the only one who has had these issues with this specific laptop model.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Awesome economy streaming laptop
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, this laptop is perfect for handling console game streaming to various platforms, including FB, Twitch, and YouTube. The USB hubs work well with capture cards and webcams at the same time, which isn't always possible with some older laptops. All in all, great value for the price.
I would recommend this to a friendExcellent laptop
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop is quiet, fast, and has great graphics capabilities. Main uses so far have been Minecraft (on all the highest graphic settings), web browsing, etc. It’s still new, but seems to have a decent battery life. Also, the color changing keyboard is a nice touch :)

Fantastic laptop, but needs more RAM
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So, I bought this knowing that it was underpowered in terms of memory. However, it is eminently upgradeable. So, for roughly $200 give or take a few bucks, you can drop in 32 gb of ddr4 and a second solid state drive. This machine is a beast, and well worth the money.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Performance
Works Great Until It Doesnt
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Working great, good performance in most games but after less than 1 year the fan has started to crap out and now I need to get it replaced.
I would recommend this to a friend Doesn’t get much better for the money
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Boot time is incredible. I purchased specifically to render 4k video and it does that seamlessly. Also started pc gaming on it some reliving some of my favorite console games thanks to steam and it’s like playing a whole new game again. Highly recommend this laptop.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat size and look.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked the size and look of the laptop but there was a dent on the top and it was missing accessories that were supposed to be included with it. I had to call Best Buy Corporate CS to exchange it.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Fan noise, Keyboard
Buggy Keyboad, Noisy Fan
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a recommended laptop for games. Keyboard gets stuck in between and doesn't work at all when you try to login after hibernate. Fan is too noisy even for this lower end gaming machine. Only positive about this laptop is display even though its not 144hz as Asus website mention but for the price, display is good.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.only thing I have noticed in 2 weeks of using the laptop is when you boot screen goes black a couple times. Sometimes only once. Not sure why yet but as of now thats my only concern.
