I've had this laptop for just over a year, and I've tried to keep it in pretty good shape. It rarely leaves my home, and I've never dropped it or let it overheat. But about a month ago I discovered that a piece of plastic holding the hinge in place had come off, separating perfectly as though the glue itself had failed. Within a day or so of being extremely gentle with it, other areas around the hinge started cracking, to the point that entire sections of the plastic have broken and are threatening to come loose. I've had to duct tape sections of the hinge together to prevent the whole thing from tearing itself apart. When I bought this laptop it was supposed to last for several years, but it's started to quite literally fall apart after only a year. Not very happy with the durability of the product.

It's a great laptop for gaming and everyday use. I like the smart charging, which makes it a desktop that doesn't need to be unplugged, the battery stays at 70%.

Its a snappy responsive computer able to play memory hungry games with ease I was able to have it projected to my TV which was a plus, Bluetooth works perfectly, I'd definitely buy another one

Gigabyte is a named brand that many know from their computer parts and accessories. This laptop brings that storied product innovation into a powerful laptop. If you are looking at this laptop then you know that you are looking at a powerful gaming machine that's portable. The price is very good for what you are getting. 16" Ips screen thats FHD+ (1920x1200) so a more clearer picture in a very nice panel. No its not touch screen, but for a gaming machine I don't think it needed it. Secondly, the RTX 4060 in this form factor and display crushes games with ease. That's because its paired with an i7 that's built to for power users and handle multitasking. On top of that they tossed in 32GB of DDR5 ram! So for me I decided to benchmark some of my favorite games: Benchmarks Custom 1080P Ultra/High : WarZone2 - 100FPS Forza -105 FPS Red Dead Redemption- 120 FPS Cyberpunk - 88 FPS Apex Legends- 125-195 FPS Battlefield 2042- 100-120 FPS Diablo IV- 90 143 FPS So to recap as you can see you will get every frame that could possibly want from these games in this laptop. The screen is rated 165Hz so it will take advantage of it. This GPU/CPU pairing for this resolution is perfect for on the go gamers at a pretty attractive price point that just oozes with features. Pick this laptop and you wont be disappointed as I'm excited to take this on the road and on the cruises and still be able to game with some amazing power.

This is a solid, budget gaming laptop. I didn’t want to spend too much money on my daughter for a gaming laptop, but I also didn’t want to get her something that wouldn’t run the games she likes to run. Generally, she plays games like Stardew Valley, Honkai:Starrail, and Genshin Impact. On the older gaming laptop she used, which had an AMD process and an older Nvidia card, these games would lag considerably. The G6 has no such issues. Gameplay is snappy; on normal settings, there is no lagging with any of the games that she plays. The fans definitely kick on often, and they do make some noise. That being said, the top of the laptop remains nice and cool, signaling excellent cooling capabilities. I’m sure the smooth gameplay has to do with the i7 processor, 32 gigs of RAM, and the RTX 4060 card. The 16” screen is gorgeous, even if it is ‘just’ FHD+ WXUGA screen. Colors are bright and resolute, and the screen gets plenty bright. If there was one thing I could nitpick, it would be the internal speakers. They are weak on bass, but do get plenty loud. Most times my daughter is using headphones anyways, so that is just a small criticism compared to the overall value to performance ratio. I can’t say enough good about this laptop. If you’re looking for a mid-level, budget laptop that performs well above its price point, the G6 KF 2024 is a good one to drop some money on. Other high points: NVIDIA RTX4060 8 gig video card 32 gigs of DDR5 RAM 1 gig solid state hard drive. Ethernet connection as well as WiFI HDMI output 2 USB connections 2 USB-C connections Micro SD slot

Good computer except for battery life. Graphics look good but it’s a little noisy. I am happy with this laptop.

Really disappointed in this computer. Very short battery life. May as well use this as a desktop. The power supply pulls so hard it will click off an inverter. The BIOS interface is terrible. Now , 2 months after warranty, it gets a Windows update and gets bricked.

If you’ve built a PC or at least shopped for an upgrade on your GPU, you’ve probably seen Gigabyte listed among the brands. Where you think of these companies doing PC parts first and laptops and peripherals second, we may be starting to see a shift where companies like MSI and Gigabyte. With MSI Titan leading the charge on desktop replacement, I’m curious to see where Gigabyte aims to land in the market. There’s a lot of good to talk about. Right out of the box without even opening the lid, I noticed the build quality was up to standard. There’s almost no flex to the chassis. Ventilation on the bottom shows the beefy copper heat sink through the openings and the two fans that cool it. On the back there’s vents to the left and right with some well-placed I/O in the middle. The hinge is light and easy to open one handed but maybe a bit too loose. There’s a bit of wobble when moving around. Although it lacks stiffness, there isn’t any flex to the lid or panel. This laptop was built for 1080p gaming. I’ve been playing New World, Remnant II, and the very early alpha testing for Tribes 3 Rivals. No issues with lag, frame drop, or stuttering. I’m either at high or medium graphics. You can access Gigabyte Control Center in the windows system tray and adjust your mode. From here you can adjust the performance mode from Entertainment, Power Saving, Quiet, and Performance. The fans do get loud when gaming, but this is par for the course with gaming laptops. You can set your own custom fan curve if that’s your preference. I ran 3DMark Timespy and came up with a 9,535. For graphics we got 9,205 and scored a bit higher with the CPU at 11,971. Cinebench 2024, which now benchmarks GPU, came in at 10,084 pts for the GPU and 819 pts for the multi-threaded score. This is respectable middle ground for a gaming laptop. I like that this came with 32GB of memory. It seems that 16GB is just enough and Gigabyte recognized this and added more. The display leaves a bit to be desired. It’s a decent FHD panel but the brightness could be better and the color accuracy isn’t quite up to par with other FHD panels I’ve seen. As far as the essentials go, they’re all acceptable. The keyboard feels like your typical membrane keyboard. It’s not a bad typing experience but I’m spoiled by a more clicky type keycaps. It does, however, come with a number pad which I’m a number pad fan so that’s nice to see. The layout is fairly standard with no surprises. I would have liked to seen an app launcher or mode switcher for the Gigabyte control center. The keyboard backlight RGB leaves a lot to be desired. While the lighting is bright and I LOVE they made both primary and secondary functions transparent, you just don’t have a lot of customization of the colors and it appears to just be only one zone. Sound seems to be getting a bit better on laptops. Although the sound stage is very flat, they get loud, and that’s nice. You don’t get the static or distortion you get at higher volumes like you would with some older laptops. I wish I could say laptop camera’s were getting better too but they’re not. The one in this one is just okay. I wish I could tell you this wasn’t the norm, but it is. Trackpad is nice and large but if you want to right click, you have to either to finger tap, or very specifically click the bottom right of the trackpad. A bit of a strange choice but I would imagine it would make accidently right clicking a bit of a challenge, but also intentionally right clicking a bit of a challenge. Gigabyte does ship this laptop with an extra M.2 hold down screw and getting to the extra slot isn’t too difficult. There are 13 screws, all the same size, to remove from the bottom. They put a small sticker of the two in the front. Wedge a thin piece of plastic between the bottom cover and the chassis and work your way around and both the RAM, M.2 storage, and WiFi card are all easily accessible when the bottom panel is removed. While WiFi is on the brain, it’s worth mentioning it connects at 2.4 gbps indicating it’s the 6E standard. While the RAM appears to be two 16GB sticks from Samsung at 4800 MHZ DDR5. I also noticed while I had the bottom off that the battery watt hour is only 54Wh. This explained why my battery life was very poor, although, one shouldn’t expect great battery life on a gaming PC, I hope some day manufacturers break away from accepting this fact. To summarize, this is a good gaming laptop. They put thought into I/O placement, tried to balance cost vs performance without skipping on build quality. While RGB doesn’t hold a lot of weight, the display quality and battery life does and there was room for improvement here. Improvements here would have made this a great gaming laptop. I wouldn’t let that deter you if you have your eyes set on this. It handled the games I threw at it wonderfully and I expect it will do well for years to come.
