Decent buy. Was really confused between buying a powerful gaming laptop that I can use for school also. After comprehensive research, this laptop was my ultimate choice! Performance wise, it’s not disappointing at all. Laptop does get hot like lava while gaming( I guess investing in a cooling pad would be worth it). The display is spectacular. Sound quality also excellent. It is a beast. It does slow down on me sometimes, but I guess these are machines- so they’re bound to limited tasks. G14 would have been really small for me. This is the perfect size!

I have got the laptop for a solid month now and coming from a MacBook Pro for 10+ years, this is everything I hoped for in a windows laptop. Insanely powerful plugged in, excellent battery life on Eco + Silent Mode using GHelper (7h to 9h), no fan noise and gorgeous display and build quality. Can't recommend it enough. As for gaming, getting 70+FPS on max settings for Alan Wake 2 in one of the most demanding areas (Coffe World) at QHD and Frame Gen says everything you need to know.

I bought this G16 4090 for 2k when it originally retailed for 3.2k. I was blown away as I always wanted a g16 or a g14, and this was the perfect opportunity. It is slim, it is lightweight, you do sacrifice some performance and it gets pretty hot for a slim device, but those are good tradeoffs to have. A beautiful OLED screen and speakers that are loud and full. For how little this thing weighs, you will be surprised with the performance. A little over 4lbs makes this a no brainer to make as a portable gaming powerhouse.
