Computer works great. Is a little heavy but no other complaints!

Fantastic entry level gaming laptop, can't be beat within this price range especially when it goes on sale. Fast and smooth all around and it looks nice.

The build of the laptop is surprisingly good for the price, although I be fairly gentle with it to make sure I don’t break it! The keyboard responsiveness is good, and handles constant usage well (WASD person here). Screen quality is good as well, and it handles heavy games like baldur’s gate 3 well, just make sure to use the NVIDIA control center to make sure it’s using the RTX GPU and not the integrated graphics from intel.
I did upgrade the ram, from 8gb to 32gb. A bit overkill, but it helps the games run smoother. If you play a lot of large games, (over say, 100gb), get an external storage device, or see if you can upgrade the SSD! 512gbs is great for me, but might not be enough for others.

Bought this bad boy, because my laptop of 6 years bit the dust. Why is it that they are charging double the price for double the ram. I bought the 8gb at $479 and then separately bought 32 gb ram cards. It is still $500 cheaper. It is easy to upgrade also. Unscrew the back, pop off the cover, and install the ram. Very happy with my purchase.

Solid system for students or beginners that arent really interested in serious gaming as the nvidia 3050 will string you up in the long run and with many high definition, demanding games it will underperform compared to the similar power, newer generation chips. Also not recommended for video work as it will also seem pretty slow compared to paying a couple hundred more for seamless editing and graphics thatll make a world of difference in quality of life. Although im sure it can run photoshop or even protools well enough; I wouldnt recommend for more load bearing programs or gaming.

The specs are solid, although I will be upgrading the RAM soon, which is an easy and inexpensive upgrade to do yourself. The track pad feels wobbly, especially in the corners where you tap for the left and right click. The model at the store that I tried out had a less wobbly track pad, so maybe my particular pc has a problem. Regardless, I use an external mouse so it’s not a big deal to me. I got it on sale so I am happy with the price, although I would not have paid full original price for it.

I really love this laptop, I use it for mostly my cricut making business and watching YouTube videos.
Watching videos or movies looks way better than a tv.

The product came as described. RAM lacked a bit, but it was easy to upgrade with two 16g sticks. The memory lacked as well, but it was also an easy upgrade. Microsoft had to be re-formatted. For the price, worth it.

Amazing laptop for gaming and to work with overall. Would recommend buying it for someone who isn't trying to spend too much money on a good quality gaming laptop.

Everything works like a charm. My only criticism is that the mousepad takes a little getting used to and may affect some videogame experiences. Other than that this was a great computer for a reasonable price.
