    it is very very good, only issue is that it over heats very quickly. Other than that, it is a top tier laptop. Would definitely recommend to people.

    What I liked This laptop's battery life actually lasts 5 to 7 hours when working on Word, Google Docs, chrome, and having some meetings in Google Meet. From my experience with gaming laptops, it's unbelievable. When gaming it lasts up to 2 hours with Red Dead Redemption 2 in performance mode. No glitches or delays. And you can charge it in approx. 45-50 minutes to its 80% of battery. I like to leave it at that as I understand is a good measure to keep the battery working long term. What I disliked The camera is very poor. Everything always looks overexposed. And as I am a very white person, I barely distinguish in a sunny day Jajaja. It's a bit heavy to carry on a daypack, but I already knew it before buying it.

    Handles very well, run Dota 2, Counter-strike, Ark survival ascended with good results. Use this as a travel PC so I can’t complain at all. Solid build materials are a plus as well

    I have had this laptop for over 6 months. Runs games extremely well for its size. Talks with other devices easily. Have had no issues with the screen, touchpad/mousepad, keyboard or ports. I upgraded the ram and storage easily. I would recommend this laptop for gaming or any other business or school related needs.

    Pros: Can stream and record while playing mhworld, fortnite and overwatch no issue Large screen to see your in game deaths more clearly Sale price is more than worth it (750). I got my i3 computer for 500 back in 2016. Major upgrade. I bought it to stream and play monster hunter and thats what i got. Cons: The area below keys get smudged by your hands Gets warm and fans are loud. When plugging and unplugging, comouter blacks out as it changes from battery mode to performance (and vice versa). Battery lasts aboht 1.5 hours unplugged and depending on game.

    Awesome Laptop for the Price

    Love this laptop. It has everything you could ask for at this price point. I can play most games at 70+ FPS at high settings as well as watch videos for over 8 hours on the battery. When gaming, the battery lasts for a little under 2 hours. It does not get very loud even when the fans are at full blast. I had an Intel MacBook and this one is about half the volume of the fans. It is almost the sound of the air movement is louder than the whine of the fans. There are additional M.2 ports in the laptop so adding a second drive is easy. The Armoury Crate software that "controls" this laptop is easy to use and has a lot of features like "power shifting" that allows you to make a custom power map of what happens when you have reached max power. You can have the GPU get all the power or the CPU-- as well as a mix between the two. Some games want the GPU at full power allotment, some games work better when you give the CPU the full allotment. You can make custom "maps" of fan speed, power draw, etc. so the laptop runs the way you want it to run. This has a "USB4" type C port that doubles as a DisplayPort output. I have this connected to an external 3440 x 1440 display and I can run the display at full refresh (155Hz) and full resolution. It also includes an HDMI port, but I think the DP route is the way to go for an external monitor with this laptop for max refresh. The backlight keyboard is nice. It is hard to find one with the backlight at this price. You can not change the color (white only) but you can turn it off and make it do dumb stuff like breathe. The laptop did not come with any bloatware (if you don't include the Armoury Crate software). It boots fast and the drive is quick. FWIW, I upgraded the drive in this from the factory 512GB to a Samsung 2TB. The OEM drive was a Western Digital, but according to the specs WD made this a low power drive at the expense of speed. The Samsung 990 Pro is almost twice as fast with benchmarks. Still, the OEM drive is fast enough for most users. It does have a PD charging port, but I've not used it. The power brick is 240W and the PD port only goes to 100. The power brick is rather large. It is about 1/3rd the size of the laptop. I'm used to the smaller power bricks with laptops in this price range. The built in screen is nice. It is bright enough for me and the colors are great. I don't use it outside or anything other than an brightly lit office and it still has enough brightness to overcome any typical settings. I don't think you will find a better laptop at this price...especially when it goes on sale.

    This laptop was just like it was described to us. The girls took it out of the box and got it going without any troubles. They have been using it for gaming ever since. For the money it is a very good computer. Working with associates at the store and with the Geek squad was a very good experience. There was a mistake from the open box Asus Tuf when it was shipped it had no power supply / DC battery charger. It was all taken care of that day. You got good people working there.

    The graphics and speed are amazing. Make sure that you are on a solid surface when gaming. The fan has to run at top speed to keep the laptop cool.
