Very very good ♥️♥️

I enjoyed this computer at first until I got new headsets for it and discovered the aux didnt work. Seems to be a pretty common problem and the fix was a factory reset. Which I did and it did work originally, then stopped working altogether again. Did another factory reset and now the computer just keeps overheating and shutting down. I barely have anything on this computer. It should not be overheating this easily. Dont waste your money. These issues appear to be common with a simple Google search.

I have this laptop for a year now. (Bought it in July 2020) I first got it, it was great. After 2 months, I start to heard fan noise. I open it up, but there hardly any dust. So I clean the fan and put everything back. Then it was good for 2 weeks. After that, it start making the fan noise again. So, I open it up and check the metal fan( it was the one making all the noise). There were no dust or anything that can cause it to make that loud noise. I do some research on why its making that noise. It said if you clean it already and it still making that noise from time to time, then replace that fan. The metal fan(which is the Aeroblade 3D) will make the noise when starting up, but it stop making it after 15 or 20 minutes later. Its been going on like this for a while now.

This laptop is a beast when it comes to photo editing. I can run PS, Luminar AI, and Lightroom at the same time and it doesnt seem to even bother this laptop. I suspect it would be great at gaming too. Starts up fast, stays fast, and is an overall great machine.

I bought this to replace my Dell XPS and I love it. Its so fast and I dont have any 100% disk usage problems that plagued me for years despite tons of troubleshooting. Im a moderate PC gamer but I also use Adobe CC a lot and this computer handles everything. Ill have multiple Adobe apps open and this thing runs with no issues. I spent so much time trying to choose between a surface device, a Lenovo legion, or an hp zbook. Im so glad I saved myself the money and went with this laptop, it does everything I need and more!

Ive had this computer for almost 4 years now, it works as great as ever. I dont know much about computers really, but, its still quite fast for a little laptop and works great! It is OK for gaming, a good first gaming or casual gaming computer, but you are at a disadvantage without the builds that other people have. it has virtually no battery life whatsoever, so dont plan on using this without a charger because it will die in under an hour. Other than that, I seriously love this thing, it was totally worth it. It is very portable, and honestly, there are chargers everywhere nowadays so the battery life is really not a big deal and never really bothered me.

I am truly impressed with this gaming laptop... it seems to be well built, but a bit heavy, although that was expected.

Used for general gaming. very happy with it until it just didnt turn on one day. replaced the cord and it still wouldnt turn on. so. yeah. rather put -out :(

Amazing computer for the price.

I took the best care of my laptop, making sure that it was always secure, never dropped, not even scratched, and I only downloaded software that was from verified corporations such as Steam. After only running this computer for 7 days and over-clocking it when it was tanking on frames, the computer would just freak out and shut down permanently. If you try to turn it back on, it simply just restarts over and over again within a 1-3 second time-frame without giving you any chance at all to change anything or modify it. I can assure you that I didnt leave this laptop on for long periods of time, and at most gamed for 6 hours in one day. This has happened to me on multiple occasions and now I have to get the laptop fixed because it wont even start up anymore. Please if youre looking for a good computer, I beg you not to buy this version. Its horrible and it tanks to run good games like COD B03 Zombies. I suggest buying the $1450 version of this computer, as it has a better graphics card, more RAM, and just overall a better computer. Do not waste your money on this, because I promise you its an extremely mid-tier computer that will tank to run a lot of good games. If youre looking only to run games like L4D2 and other low-graphics games like that, then I can assure you that this computer is for you. Other than that, I highly advise you get an upgrade because itll save you from wasting your money. I hope this helped, and let me know if other buyers have encountered the same issue.
