Fantastic laptop for my uses, high quality fit and finish and has been perfect for me thus far. I really needed to upgrade and did a lot of research before finally deciding on this one. I am not a serious gamer although I do enjoy games and wanted to be sure I get something capable if I got into a game that requires it. I generally got it for everyday use and entertainment. Streaming , messaging, surfing web, organizing data, listening to music & most of the time doing a few of these at the same time. I thoroughly enjoy being able to do all this seamlessly! I give it 5 stars based on having it for a couple of weeks and it not skipping a beat with whatever I and the family throw at it. I purposely tried to open as many windows as I could, watch you tube , uploading files to external hard drive. Downloading media off our phones etc at the same time and it makes doing whatever I need to do so pleasurable. I have no problem with the screen. I actually am impressed and very happy with it. As far as I’m concerned it is a huge upgrade from my previous laptops. I was a little concerned about some of the complaints to be honest and again I’m not a serious gamer etc so take my opinion with a grain of salt but I really like it! With the screen being prett vibrant and no issue at all with brightness to me I was curious at what the brightness setting was at and to my surprise it was at approximately 35-40% at where I like it. For me, I cannot see how anyone could complain about it. I mean I’ve seen buddies $2500 laptop screens and while yes very impressive and didn’t do any side by sides but I’m sure it would show however I don’t Plan on comparing my screen side by side nor having it side by side simultaneously with other laptops at the same time so I am not concerned at all about it. For just under a grand and I got the 16g ram model plus it’s upgradeable etc I am set! I love this thing and hopefully it can serve me well for years and years. I do like the feel of the smooth finish and like the fact that the back cover comes off in two seconds if you wanted or needed to make changes not or upgrades. I dig the red accents and vents. The red backlight of the keyboard is awesome for low or no light visibility not to mention this thing just looks cool as well. That’s another thing I like about gaming laptops, not your average boring laptop. Everything oozes quality, the feel of the keys is almost therapeutic, it boots up very fast and the speaker sound really surprised me. It is a bit thick borderline bulky but I imagine for what it is and does this cannot be helped and I am good with it by the way the battery life is awesome. I charge it basically every couple to few days or so depending on how much I use it. There’s no way I’d kill the battery in one sitting for my uses, granted I won’t sit and play a high demanding game for 6-8 hours... messed around with playing a ROBLOX with my daughter for a few 3-4 hours or so one night and the battery ended up at over 60% when we were done from a full charge. This is waaaaaay more than I’d ever ask and is impressive as far as I’m concerned. I give it 5 stars and highly recommend it! I’d find it hard pressed to find something for under a grand that would top this. Two thumbs up for me!
