This laptop offers a lot of performance for the price. The processor and memory are very fast. There was very little bloatware, only McAfee which was easy to uninstall. I haven't had any major issues in the first week of owning it. Pros: - Fast processor and memory - Great looking screen in low light situations - Hinge goes all the way flat - Decent size and weight, I don't travel with it too much, but it wouldn't be bad to carry on a plane. Cons: - Screen has A LOT of GLARE, might apply a matte screen protector to help. In well-lit areas the screen is very difficult to read. - Fans are loud when it is running at higher speeds, but it most everyday usage it - Keyboard is a bit cramped, they fit a numpad on the laptop which made all the other keys a bit smaller. - Screen size is a bit odd, it is a bit shorter and wider than other laptops Tips: - The screen can go up to 120hz refresh rate. It is supposed to set the rate on its between 60 and 120. I always saw it at 60 so I forced it to always be 120.

Lover this laptop. It is super powerful and had an amazing screen. I ran stress tests on the GPU and cpu simultaneously and never even hit 80. The display is amazing and I highly reccomend it. Thr cooling blows out the bottom so it won't suck up dust. Generally great, only gripe is no ethernet port.

I have been using this laptop fairly lightly for school purposes and very light gaming and I get very poor battery life. If you want something that has to be plugged in 24/7 just invest the money you would spend on this device into building a desktop because you would be lucky to get 2 hours of battery life on this device (on light use).
