The specs for the cost on this computer are okay, but there are just a few nagging problems I had with it that led to me returning it.

Good price

The sound device/drivers or card (who cares which) didnt work straight out of the box. no fix ... Daughter has no Laptop for school now until I get a new one.

I love the laptop! it is great for the games i have tried on it. its fast, quiet, and it charges really quick. death stranding is amazing on it, minecraft on high graphics runs so smoothly and sims loads super quickly as well. I would absolutely recommend this laptop to anyone. It is a must! It is nice that it came with a sleeve. It really is a great overall laptop and for the price you get great specs!

I love this laptop. This is my second predator. The first one (a GTX 1060 model) had tremendous heat issues and throttling. This has been solved on this new release. This is the new model 2060 RTX but is limited to 90 watts. I suppose a software update in the future will increase to 115 Watts. Either way, it is to my understanding that this would only provide a minimal increase in average frame rate at the expense of battery life. The laptop works beautifully with my oculus quest with various software options for gaming performance. The only issue I have experienced is hardware related (let me explain). When applying the smallest amount of pressure on the left palm-rest (where you plug your gaming headset), communication, (talking, not receiving) is muffled with static. After switching headsets and connecting with my other predator, I determined that there is a loose connection or metal touching metal that causes the problem. I called predator support and they recommended to get a new one delivered by amazon because delays on repairing the problem could take 7-10 days. So I called and viola! A new laptop is arriving today! So again if you get this laptop check first if you can communicate through teamspeak and discord before installing additional programs. I believe this is manufacture issue and hopefully an isolated one. Again this is a great laptop with plenty of options for storage upgrade (2 NVME slots and an SSD slot with non-soldered Ram) which are found on more expensive laptops. Service support through amazon has thus far been excellent. I will provide an update if the issue with communication happens again. An update; the new laptop arrived and it work perfectly with both teamspeak and discord. No other issues to report.

I was recommended this laptop by my gamer friend, but I usually don’t play games. However, I use programs that take a toll on regular computers. I’m glad I chose this! It’s really good for its price/ cheaper than I expected, and it’s beautiful!

This is the best laptop I’ve owned so far. Everything about the laptop is good from the material of it to the thermals are amazing!

Bought this for MSFS2020. It runs great at high settings. Battery life is poor when gaming but I just plug it in. Battery life is much better, but still not great if just browsing the internet. The fans are loud at max settings, like turbo mode, but it keeps the laptop cool and allows smoothest gameplay. I don’t care, this laptop is amazing for gaming. It is 5 stars worthy especially given the price. I also use it for crypto mining but only with the GPU so that it stays cool. This laptop is great great great.

This thing can run triple A titles on max or near max settings. An rgb keyboard to customize your style, and sleek aluminum frame for a nice sturdy body.

Great price for a great device. Now only if I could get some time to game.
