Customer Ratings & Reviews

This laptop is a great buy if you're looking for a light, portable machine that has powerful capabilities. If you are always on the move but still need some power in your workstation, then this is definitely a buy. The one downside is that there is no webcam, but if you're ok with that, then I'd highly recommend.

Great value for money. The processor is insanely fast. The graphics card isn't half bad either. Keep in mind this thing gets stupid hot, I would recommend having a cooling pad underneath it. It's easy to setup and use. There isn't a bunch of annoying garbage software preinstalled on it either. Highly recommended for both casual and gaming use.

I can't really say anything negative about this laptop. It preforms amazingly well given it's compact size, the cooling is phenomenal and the keyboard is excellent to type on. I would say the only issue that really bugs me is the barrel style connector on the side.

This has been a solid gaming laptop for a first time gamer. I'm able to run most programs at High with little to no issues and pop in / maintain Ultra for picture taking opportunities while in there. The only thing I would change is to splurge for the 32GB Ram on my next purchase.

I had gotten this as ay a major discount and was sad that when I initially got it, it was not functional upon receiving it. The WiFi was not recognizing so I had to bypass Windows setup and found out there were more issues. I returned it to the store and was able to get a replacement that was brand new for the same price and it has been rock solid for just over a year now. A very powerful computer for it's size. Highly recommend looking into it. Sure there can be some minor things like I had initially encountered but for sub $1000 that I bought it, I couldn't be happier. Pro: Small, light weight for the given hardware, great battery life when you disable the Rtx3060gpu and make some minor tweaks in the settings for around 5-7 hours watching videos. Just under 2 when light gaming. Cons: can get hot when gaming or doing intense work, but to be expected for something this small and powerful on Windows.

Excellent performance in a comfortable size. I was happy to be able to find this laptop online and purchase it with store pickup the same day. The laptop performs well without getting hot and low fan noise. My only negative comment is the keyboard/lighting not being ideal to read the keys easily.

I have used this laptop as my daily driver for the past month and it has worked great. I was pleasantly surprised by how good the key actuation on the keyboard is though I will say the key layout did take a little bit of getting used to. I also like how this laptop has all of the gaming performance but doesn't have any of the RGB lighting stuff the keyboard just has simple white backlighting which is the way I like it. The screen has also been excellent. I think this one having the 1080p screen is the perfect match for the 3060 because in games like Battlefield I am able to keep the frame rate up between 105-115 with the graphics mostly cranked. Over all this laptop is great for somebody that wants a laptop that can game, but doesn't want everybody around them to know it. Also just a FYI it doesn't have a web cam which can be a positive or a negative based on your needs.

Very good laptop, very powerful, runs silent most of the time if you’re just browsing the web or keeping things to productivity focus. Runs games far better than I thought it would while not being as loud as I expected. It still makes noise for sure, but it’s acceptable for the size and level of performance. Downsides would be the keyboard back lighting being worse than just leaving it off during the day due to poor contrast on the keys and bad isolation of the led backlight. There is some lcd light bleed in the screen as well, and the trackpad is a diving board design which is a personal gripe but ultimately it’s a fine trackpad. For the price though, I’m happy with it, performance is solid, upgradability is a possibility due to a single DIMM slot and M.2 drive that can be replaced but not added to, and solid build quality.

You can run any game, even the most wanting, on 144fps (low graphics). This laptop is amazing. Battery time is great. The white finish looks nice but doesn't mesh with the white backlit keyboard. Overall a really good laptop for around 1.5k.

Does run a bit hot while gaming and the build quality could be better. Had this for a couple years now without major issues.

This is a pretty good laptop. It has a great gpu and is very quiet during gaming, but there are some minor gripes. The white color is not for everyone as it gets dirty pretty easy but that’s as expected. VR doesn’t work very well with it either (from my experience) as it keeps wanting to use the igpu for vr and not the dedicated graphics no matter what I do. The screen is also not flush at the bottom of the chassis when closed so it feels wrong to carry from the bottom as it bends the screen. If you don’t plan on using an external display and love white then this is an amazing laptop, worth every penny. If you love black, stick with that and find a different option like the G15 (which also has a better gpu). The battery life on this laptop is also AMAZING when using the igpu.

Great laptop so far. I have only had it for a few days but it has been running great attached to a 3440x1440p Ultrawide monitor. CPU temps can be a little warm when left stock, but you can limit the TDP or limit boost speed with negligible effect to gaming performance. No throttling below non boost clocks either way. Some pros and cons: Pros Fans actually stop in silent by default. Nice magnesium construction, strong and light. 144hz monitor response time is way better than the last model Keyboard backlight is more uniform Higher USB C PD charging Cons Mostly just needed to make the slight adjustment to the CPU to get temps more under control. And this is just personal preference, it is not a necessary step.

I’ve had this laptop for about two years now. I use it mainly for college but game with it as well on the road. I’ve never had any problems. Runs all games really well. Gives off a whistling noise which is about the only complaint I have but not a big deal at all. Overall, love it

Even though it doesn't have a built in webcam I'm still giving this 5 stars. Loads super fast. Puts my desktop gaming pc to shame speed and graphics wise. Battery life has always lasted long enough for anything I have done. Don't regret buy this instead of just upgrading my old pc.

This is a great gaming laptop in a small package, but don’t let the looks deceive you. When I was scoping it with the attendant even he was taken aback by the Ryzen 9, and the graphics card. As a gift for my son I wanted something that was compact, versatile yet powerful. According to him it is all of that, and more. There’s no lag or buffering even in high-consumption games (HALO, Assassins Creed, Forza to name a few). It’s also doubles well for schoolwork as he runs all the MS software without any issues. I bought a cooling pad to go with it, but for the first week he sued it without one and there weren’t issues, but I’d still get one for good measure. The last thing I like is that the screen is definitely amazing. It’s crystal clear, sharp and brings to life what you’re gaming. All in all, and excellent buy for the price and I highly recommend.

This is a pretty powerful machine that could game and replace a desktop. Unbelievable quality in a tiny package. The cooling system is great but if you're a hard core gamer sit it on a laptop cooler for longevity.

I had a G14 2020, and I loved it, despite it's numerous issues... 1. It would get frequently hot uncomfortably hot, sometimes even while idle. 2.It would run out of battery very quickly because of some mysterious process using the gpu that I couldn't ever quite track down. 3. There was a constant fear that the computer would become bricked if I was ever to accidentally plug in usb-c charging and the 180w brick charger at the same time. This version? It has none of those issues, and it's surprisingly fast. I mean, most people probably won't be able to tell on the surface that it's faster, but I am a developer so I frequently need to test things / compile things that end up taking up significant cpu resources. This computer can handle it all and get things done about 30% faster than the last generation. That's not to say the 2020 version is a push over.. Not at all.. It's fast as heck, just not quite as fast as the 2021 refresh. 11/10

Probably the best laptop I've ever own to be honest. The battery life, size and weight are all awesome especially for college, and the gaming capabilities are pretty sick too. An all around swiss army knife of a machine that allows me to due whatever my heart desires.

All the hype was probably not for this model. I’m not all geeked out on gaming PC and specs but for me this is decent, just decent. -It’s a hot body. It gets pretty hot pretty fast. Just browsing the internet 30 minutes in and it can get up to 42-49 Celsius. I’m not sure if that’s normal but it’s scary to the touch. And when it does the fan noise kicks in. It’s high, as in loud. Considering that it’s a 14” and pretty thin, the fan being that high is necessary. -I run a pretty old game which I don’t think is that graphic intense. I can only get a little over 3hours in at full battery. Which is fine for me but if you’re looking for more without putting the plug in, you’ll be disappointed. -I believe I bought mine new. But it does this thing every now and then where I’ll turn it on from a shut down and the screen just stays black, but it’s on. So I would have to do a hard shut down and turn it on again. I don’t know how healthy that is in the long run but it has happened three times now since I got in July. Besides all that though it does run games pretty smoothly at 60fps. The color accuracy is close enough for what want to do although it does need a little tweeking at first and that can be done without an external device.

Amazingly good computer. Bought it to do programming work and gaming. Have had it for a couple years now and it still runs like a dream
