Customers are saying
Customers are impressed with the TUF Gaming A16 laptop's strong performance, solid build quality, and satisfactory battery life. Many also appreciate its reasonable price, exceptional speed, sufficient RAM, and great graphics.

Additionally, a few users feel that the storage could be larger, the laptop is a bit heavy, and the screen brightness could be improved.

Pretty good pick when on sale
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As far as gaming laptops are concerned, this was a great deal when on sale, probably wouldnt buy for the regular price. System is actually well balanced compared to most laptops and has pretty much everything you need for general purpose use and gaming. Its biggest issue is the small amount of storage, but it does have a second NVME slot and is easily upgradable. Battery life isnt the best either but you should never expect that out of a gaming laptop to begin with, its actually decent all things considered.

My first Gaming Laptop
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have to say, with almost 30 days of use, I have never been this impressed with a PC in a long time. I don't usually make high-dollar purchases like this, but this laptop has exceeded my expectations in many ways. Purchase if you're looking for your first gaming laptop. I use it for web surfing, my kid's schoolwork and we game via Steam and Xbox PC Gamepass. Bonus: you can upgrade the memory yourself.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works wonderful and haven’t had any problems changing works with a c type and the cord that comes with it it’s fast and great quality video I use it for mid level gaming for Minecraft Elden ring and Roblox mid to high graphics runs a bit hot but that’s fine also good for eating movies on only thing I would add or change is a extra charger and more storage

Great Laptop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great laptop I got it to run 3d software and gaming. It works great for both. The down side is that the GPU keeps switching back and forth when you start a game that uses more of the GPU.

Great computer great service
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This computer is amazing. I wanted something that I would be able to play my PC games on and also something that would work well for school and work and I think this computer is the perfect match for that. Bestbuy was also awesome with everything from shipping (it took two days to get here) to the trade-in I used for the computer (they gave me the max amount I was hoping for). I definitely recommend this computer and purchasing the open-box "refurbished" products overall. They're brand new and Bestbuy does a great job ensuring they're all functioning and looking great.

An AMD Laptop w/ Some Fallbacks
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I'll cut to the chase. This laptop is great and I had very few complaints but they were big enough for actual concern. I ended up taking this laptop back to Best Buy then paying the 800 dollar difference for a much better Acer Predator laptop with an Intel processor and Nvidia card. I was super excited to have an all AMD build but it wakes up only half of the time and barely went back to sleep when closed. For those who don't know, you can do Ray Tracing with an AMD card but you can't run anything with RTX. Did I realize there was a difference even with all of my years of watching Linus freaking Tech Tips or Gamers Nexus...no I did not and I'm sure most don't lol Take my word for it, this is an amazing laptop and if it was for school or someone wanting to get into laptop gaming specifically this is the Holy Grail of gaming laptops! Sometimes the power button would be unresponsive and the screen only goes up to 300 nits TOPS. For those who don't know, that's so dim you might as well lock yourself in a windowless room to see what you're actually doing lol I wanted this to be my favorite purchase I've made in a while but a 500 dollar Xbox Series X runs Microsoft exclusive titles better than this PC could. Idk I'm torn and I was READY to become an AMD die hard!

Best Budget Gaming Laptop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop is amazing for the price! the gaming experience is great and it is also great for school too. The battery life is incredible. I get 11 to 13 hours with the gpu turned off and using integrated graphics to do productivity tasks. If you can find it on sale, I would go for it! You wont be disappointed.

Perfoms well, memory limits it for gaming
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice & fast, but the 512 memory is a bit limiting if you are gaming. (You can only have 2-3 games downloaded at a time.) Performs well for general use and for casual gaming.

Great computer for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great gaming laptop, can run almost any game, with many at steady 120+ fps. I recommend catching it on sale, as you can get an amazing deal of $700, making it well worth it.

The All AMD Champ
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent as long as it's on sale as it's not worth the $1100 msrp. With that said, no matter what game I've played on it...Control, Far Cry 6, Star Wars Survior it plays them all at high settings. I have added a 1tb SSD and I do plan on adding 32gb of ram as it those said games do max out the ram. I also like that it's all AMD. Battery life is just average ( about 5-6 hours of non gaming)

Great buy.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great laptop. Bought two for my sons for College. It is certainly portable being a laptop, but it's also powerful so larger than laptops with less power under the hood.
