    Good gaming/desktop replacement laptop.

    This a very solid laptop, both in function and in construction. The physical structure is very rigid and robust, no flex whatsoever, while being lightweight for it's size. It has good thermal dissipation, with the palmrest area never getting hot as I've seen other gaming laptops in the past do. The keyboard has good feel, and the presence of a numberpad is a welcome feature, as I use this as a desktop replacement when traveling. The lack of discrete physical mouse buttons (as all modern laptops do) is a major negative for me, particularly if I'm actually trying to play a game on it using the touchpad, as I can't rest a finger on the button portion of the touchpad without activating the multitouch functionality. I had noticed (at least in Minecraft) that the touchpad and keyboard seemed to interfere with each other; that may be a software issue, I haven't tested it with other games to this point. Graphical performance works great, the 120hz screen is almost overkill for regular use, but it does make mouse cursor movement appear extremely smooth. In terms of software, this device is my first experience using Windows 11, as I'm a Linux user on my desktop, and my prior experience only went up to Windows 7. I can't say I'm a fan of the UI changes, or the invasive data logging 'features' MS has inserted into the OS; thankfully much (but not all) of that can be changed. As for bundled software, this laptop comes with a free trial of McAfee Antivirus, which I of course did not activate, and plan on removing, as MS's own antivirus tools are plenty sufficient for competent users who know not to click on links in spam E-mails and/or links with a .ru suffix... Battery life is reasonable for a high-powered gaming laptop, if you're just browsing websites you can expect probably 3-4 hours, maybe more depending on how CPU intensive the scripting on the sites you're visiting are. Gaming wise, I believe you can expect about 1.5 hours on average, obviously depending on the software. Port location is good, having the HDMI port and 2 of the 4 USB ports on the back is good for keeping the cable clutter from taking up desk space by the device. The Ethernet port is on the left side, TBH I think that should have been placed on the back instead of one of the USB ports, and that port placed on the left side, but that's just my personal preference. Overall this has been a solid, enjoyable to use device that's been a great replacement for my previous laptop.

    Pretty good laptop, I use it for a variety of things, though mostly gaming. The only thing it needs is more space, but other than that it's pretty good, especially if you are just casually gaming or working on paperwork. Wouldn't recommend for heavy gamers, as I ran out of space pretty quick. But that could be said for a lot of laptops.

    Good laptop, decent performance. Feels sell built. Display looks good, and keyboard feels nice. Sound quality is decent. I do not like how they have the main display connected to the integrated gpu. You need to force configuration to use the rtx as a physix processor, however it is really not the same. Also not thrilled with the fact that the mount and heay sync for a second pcie ssd is not included. Still, good bang for the buck. Makes for a decent mid range gaming laptop.

    Great Budget Gamer Laptop

    For the price you are paying you are getting a very decent set of components that will play most games just fine and will look great doing it. I use it for xbox game pass and steam and everything runs smoothly on medium settings at least. However...if you are a pc snob who wants the highest fps and wants a much brighter and higher quality screen, and want to play everything in high or ultra settings...you will need to spend at least $200+ more.

    This product is affordable for our family! My teenage son upgraded to this gaming laptop. The keyboard lights up, the screen is definitely big enough, graphics are impressive, and everything is easy to navigate. Initial setup was quick, and directive. I believe that even beginner computer/laptop users could easily set this up on their own. This purchase came with add-on perks, which made it even more worth the money. My son loves this! I recommend 100% No complaints.

    This laptop is a very good budget machine for both work and for gaming. It have very good build quality and a good amount of power for the price. The fans are very quiet unless you want them to be loud. A great option for sure. Also very go battery life for a machine of this power and price.
