This is the first time Ive ever experienced a newly purchased device not even turning on. Im wondering if this is actually a new computer.

Detailed First Impression Review

bluetooth does not work on this model with windows 11, it does not let you play sound through anything but the speakers. it tells you it is connected to the bluetooth for voice and music but automatically mutes the music and will not unmute unless you go back to speakers, or it just crashes if you keep trying to unmute. it does not let you uninstall drivers or remove devices, they just reappear when you restart, and eventually it will crash and shut down if you keep trying to get it to use the bluetooth for audio output. this is apparently a problem with Windows 11 and bluetooth that has no solution. so if you really want to play music or whatever with your computer, stay away from Windows 11 computers until they fix this problem. apparently it has existed for many months already though.

I saved up money to purchase this and i wanted to spend a little less so I went with this vendor; big mistake.I was spongebob ready to have a new laptop. I open the box to reveal a gloriously clean, sexy, and amazing computer. All in all the computer didnt turn on at all even after plugging it in. Amazon was great about trying to provide me with options, but wanted me to contact the third party. Nope. I said take back the item, but now I have to wait on UPS to come pick up the defective product so i had to take a day off work. first and last time ordering electronics from amazon.

This is the best gaming laptop you can buy in its price class. It even outperforms some more expensive options. Big screen (for a laptop), strong CPU and GPU, enough memory, and a 1TB SSD. The only downside (and this is very minor): You quickly run out of battery while gaming. But thats the price you pay for a bigger than average screen, coupled with both a strong CPU and GPU.

I was nervous to buy but it is truly a great laptop.

This laptop does exactly what I expected. It is a perfect entry level gaming laptop.

I run plenty of games through this thing with all my other tabs open in browsers and this thing has no issues. Have had it for 6+ months and don’t really have any complaints. I wish the GPU was a bit more powerful for games like COD but overall hitting 100+ fps in all titles is relatively easy at the lower end of graphic settings.

Performs well especially for a laptop and is great for gaming. I personally think that 8gb ram is a little too small for gaming and multitasking on your computer but it can be fixed by installing your own desired amount of ram later on. That goes as well for the SSD/HDD. Other than that its definitely it runs fine on a day to day basis.

It’s awesome for gaming compared to my Mac haha. Boot is slow but once you modify settings you can get it to boot fast
