    Terrible laptop

    Slow, overheats, can't play games even when the minimum specs are below what this laptop has. The fan is incredibly loud. I had to return the first laptop and get a second one, which was a little better, but not much. So many technical errors, HD just randomly disconnects or stops working. And, unplugged, you get about 4 hours battery life *if* you aren't using it. If you are using it, that's closer to 15 minutes. This is the worst laptop I've ever owned!!

    The worker told me it would last 5 years with no problems at 144 FPS on games. Barely 1 and a half years go bye and I have replaced the battery gotten a new screen and now it can only run games at 18 FPS

    I got it to try flight simulators in VR with windows mixed reality using a LEVONO head set. IL-2 Battle of Stalingrad: Runs great up to good video settings it gives you around 55 frames per second. In excellent video setting it is not smooth looks great but not playable. I recommend to wait for the price to be around a thousand and not 15 hundred.
