I like this laptop, however, the battery life on it while playing a game is very short lived. I find my self having to plug it in after only maybe and hour or hour and a half. For the amount of money Inwoukd expect the laptop to be charged enough to play a game for at least 2 maybe 2 and a half hours, I only play the sins 4 so not a lot going on there to make the battery run out so quick… imagine if I were playing a online multi shooter game…. Inwoukdn’t unless I plugged in first.

Laptop runs everything I need it to decently. Its no major power house but I woukd say it will work for 95% of people looking to get into gaming. It will studder from time to time, but runs most games easily at 1080P 60fps+. The only issue ive had is the keyboard does not have multi color back lighting.

This computer is great for both school and leisure. It runs fast, and can handle most tasks. For gaming this computer is great. It runs well and most games can be played on high or ultra settings at 1920 x 1080 resolution. Wish it had an OLED display though.

I've spent some time with this laptop, and my experience has been a bit of a mixed bag. On the one hand, its performance is genuinely great. It handles demanding tasks and applications with ease, offering a smooth and responsive computing experience that really stands out. If raw power is your top priority, this machine certainly delivers.
However, that power seems to come with some notable trade-offs. Firstly, it heats up significantly under load. While some warmth is expected from powerful components, this laptop tends to get uncomfortably hot, which can be concerning for long-term use and comfort.
Secondly, I've encountered spontaneous crashes on more than one occasion. These unexpected shutdowns are frustrating and disruptive, especially when in the middle of important work. This sporadic instability definitely detracts from the otherwise strong performance.
Adding to the practical inconveniences, this laptop is undeniably bulky. It's a hefty machine that doesn't lend itself well to portability. Don't expect to easily slip this into a slim backpack or comfortably use it on the go. Its size and weight make it better suited for a stationary setup. And to make matters worse, its charging brick is a literal brick – comically large and heavy, adding even more bulk to any attempt at transport.
In summary, this laptop is a powerhouse capable of excellent performance. However, potential buyers should be aware of its tendencies to heat up, the occasional spontaneous crash, its considerable bulk, and the equally bulky charging adapter. It's a machine best suited for users who prioritize raw processing power and will primarily use it in a fixed location, rather than those seeking a highly portable or flawlessly stable experience.

I bought this for my child for his first gaming PC, the specs for the price are solid. I picked this up on sale for $899, not to sure it's worth the full price of $1149 but it's really nice either way. My only complaint is the screen, the 1080p 120hz is great but the colors aren't too great, it looks a little washed out, the screen is definitely its weakness but for what I paid im ok with it.

Bought this laptop as open box in a pinch when my fairly new gaming laptops graphic card randomly stopped working. I was so impressed with this one I decided to sell my old laptop to the repair shop and keep this one.

Bought this for school and have been enjoying my experience with it. The quality is great and ending up getting a great deal choosing an open box option. Would recommend with my only criticism being that the charge doesn’t last as long as I’d hoped.

Fair price for a beginner with all the bells and whistles. Good graphics and pretty fast/smooth. Battery life is okay but is usually used plugged in for the best performance with pushing the laptop to the fullest. I recommend it. Just keep it juiced up to the electricity outlet and you Gucci ;)

It’s a great computer with amazing graphics. Battery life isn’t super long when unplugged, but overall quality is fantastic. I’ve been playing steam and Xbox games with no issues and the memory is amazing.

This is the first windows computer that I have used as a daily driver and played Warframe on. I am very much happy with my G15, it's working great with going to school online and the odd night that I'd like to play a game! Really happy I bought it.
