Many appreciate its upgradability, especially regarding RAM and storage, and find the price reasonable for the performance offered. However, some users note that the battery life could be improved, and the fan noise can be noticeable during gaming sessions.

    For the price I bought it (which cause of a discount was 800) it’s one of the best bang for your buck, I can play any game from medium to Ultra depending on how demanding the game is.

    It does more than expected, I come from a 60hz regular laptop and bought this one to game/work/school and does all tasks very efficiently. I recommend upgrading the ssd, but other than that, runs smooth like butter all games.

    I bought this, this year for the black Friday deal and it was 850, and I got to say best 850 of my life I recommend this to anyone who reads my review, the only downside to it is that it seems almost too good to be true.

    Slim, powerful and overall excellent! Only had a small OS issue where quick boot causes the device to not power on properly every time. Once disabled everything is perfect.

    Pretty good laptop not much complaints but it is pretty laggy when running Fortnite max settings but it’s not bad because it still runs like 100 FPS even when you’re on max settings

    I am from Morocco and I bought this one during the winter sales for 850$ (it cost 3x times the price where I live!), even the fact that bestbuy isn’t delivering to my country, someone got it for me. All I can tell is this laptop satisfies all what I need seamlessly (work, entertainment and especially gaming). I thought that the R5 won’t be a powerful CPU, but it proved me wrong. The same thing goes for the RTX 4060. The only average aspect (although it’s not a bummer) is the screen: colors and brightness are not enough for people looking for the best visual experience.

    I love my laptop. It runs everything at incredible speeds, the graphics are clear and it’s a solid built laptop. Some of the keys seem to be coming up but I use a separate keyboard and it doesn’t interfere much with my usage.

    Really enjoying the laptop. Obviously its not the most powerful, but for the price its well worth it. Just dont expect to do any high-end gaming without being plugged into the charger.

    Pretty solid computer. I was worried about the processor r5 7640hs will not be fast enough since I am using the computer for some coding. But it turned out that it works good. The computer support adding one more m2 ssd (u could buy one and install yourself). So the 512gb ssd will not be an issue. I personally bought a ssn570 1tb so it’s a 1.5tb computer now. Overall the computer can be picked if there are some discounts.

    Amazing laptop for both gaming and everyday work. Got it on sale and can't beat the performance and overall function for the price ($800). I tried several other mid to higher end range and felt like this was better overall in terms of balance, keyboard quality, 'minimal fan noise and heat. Not the prettiest build but just a solid product overall. Cable management in the back of laptop is nice. Screen color could be richer. Anti glare is nice. Would highly recommend.

    It works just as advertised! Powerful enough to do heavy tasks and the upgradability is a huge plus.
