I give it 5 Stars because I got it on sale for $699. I wanted a budget gaming laptop because my 12yr old laptop finally died...for $699 this is a decent deal. RTX 4050, 16GB DDR5 5600Mhz RAM. Wish it had a 1 TB NVMe, but its fine for the price. Gaming is actually pretty good on it. Was getting about 100 fps in Doom: The Dark Ages, High settings DLSS on quality. About 90 fps on Cyberpunk with same settings...probably gonna upgrade the NMVe and the RAM to 32 GB eventually. Better than i expected for the price.

This gaming laptop is great! I'm able to run Baldurs Gate 3 without any issues nor without the laptop heating up excessively. However I would not recommend doing a trade in with Best Buy. I sent in my old laptop which was fully functioning and in fair condition but because of a small fray in the power cord, the trade in was rejected. I reset my laptop and shipped it all for nothing. Better to keep your laptop or take it somewhere else.

Love this laptop. Almost zero noticeable lag. Multitasks well, I’ve had over 15 different browser tabs open and load times were fast. L (2g internet speed with Hitron Modem & Archer 11000x router setup). Gaming graphics are exceptional. I would certainly consider this a nice gaming laptop at an affordable price point.

I've only had it for a month, maybe two, but i'd say as a college student getting their first gaming laptop this works pretty fine. Built way better than my previous more budget laptop. Though I'm sure the entirety of the laptops build is plastic, it is sturdy, not flimsy plastic that feels smooth and good.
I am not that extreme of a gamer, but was getting tired of most stream games, and sometimes even Roblox lagging when playing with friends so my sole purpose of getting this laptop was more or less to be able to game more smoothly with friends, and it does the job! I am able to play games, and be on a call at the same time usually. There is never really bad lag in the games unless you try to play more demanding games. Unsure how it'd function then but for more lighter/ medium leveled games it works like a charm. Pretty sure fortnite works swiftly too.
Just make sure you're using this on a TABLE and not a bed while gaming, the bottom tends to heat up alot when gaming, which i'd say is one con. Besides ofc battery life merely being over 3 hours, maybe almost 4, when you're not gaming. ALWAYS ALWAYS keep the charger in while gaming if not battery will drain in literally an hour!!!
But overall for whats considered a "budget" gaming laptop I say for those not looking for something extreme, and new to the gaming world this works great!

I bought this laptop about a month ago, and so far it’s been able to max out the frames on my monitor, holding a consistent 144Hz in almost every game. It’s definitely worth it, especially for the price I paid. My only concern is the storage—since it’s a gaming laptop, 512GB isn’t the option I’d recommend. Another concern is battery life. If it isn't plugged in the battery runs out in around 3 hours, which isn't bad, but I would recommend to have to plugged in for the best performance. Everything else is great.

Excellent build quality; the keyboard and mousepad feel smooth and don't leave grease marks. The keyboard is a good size, the screen displays very good colors, and the sound is excellent. The battery only lasts 4 to 5 hours with office use. The most annoying thing is that it gets quite hot during normal use, so much so that you can't rest it on your lap because the heat is uncomfortable. The storage is decent, although 1TB would be better. 4K video playback is quite good. If they improved the overheating issue, it would be even better, And the weight is also a bit of a nuisance when carrying it around.

It works perfectly with the latest triple A games at 144+ fps. Great battery life for long gaming sessions and the fans are fairly quiet. Would recommend to friends!

I've been using the laptop for around 3 months, and it runs really good. I've played a variety of games from Elden Ring, Rainbow x, Valorant, and Hell Divers 2. It runs really well tho, for big games like Elden Ring you might need to have it plugged, because the battery will get low in like and hour and a half or 2.

Overall, I think it's pretty good for a basic gaming computer. This is the first actual "gaming pc" I've ever had, and so far, I have no conplaints! It's able to run pretty hefty games with only minimal resolution issues (it could just also be the game itself causing the issue). I will say, the fans are a little loud and the bottom can get pretty warm when you're actively playing a game, but it calms down quickly once you close out of it.

Great value for entry level gaming!!! I love mine! Graphics card is good and looks great on screen. I have it set on a cooling fan and have not had any issues.

It is a good laptop, it has excellent graphics, the games run in perfect condition, it needs more storage space on the hard drive, otherwise the sound, resolution and fans are of very good quality.

Great for the price at least when i got it on sale. The performance is great and even near the same performance of my desktop pc. The cooling is great and the cooling isnt too loud. Feels good quality too.

Really powerful laptop; it really helps with design, modeling, and game developing apps. It is a blessing. Sometimes the battery drains a little fast, but it is very practical, and if you know how to personalize its energy options, it is a piece of art.
