Pros and cons
According to our laptop expert
- You can play slightly demanding games and VR games at 60 fps, and stream your gameplay in 4K quality with the RTX 3060 video card, the Ryzen 9 processor, and the 32GB RAM.
- You can easily expand the storage of this laptop, which makes it future-proof.
- The 4K screen with DisplayHDR True Black 500 ensures images 4 times sharper than those on a Full HD screen, and shows realistic colors and shadows.
- Due to the limited capacity of the 512GB SSD, you'll have to look for extra storage space for all your games sooner.
- This laptop doesn't have an Ethernet port, so you can't connect an internet cable for wired internet.
Description

A powerful work laptop
I've had the laptop for 2 weeks now and haven't run into any issues. The laptop is a very good laptop for its price. Highly recommended for people who need a laptop for work/school. The only downsides I can think of are the battery and the built-in commercial apps that you get right away like netflix, mcafee, express vpn and more for which you still have to pay to use.

Actually an overpriced laptop compared to the quality, should not be for sale at a company known for service and expertise
