    • 5⭐️ for what it is and is not
Ok, so I got this as a portable option when I can’t or just don’t feel like using my PC. For the price the CPU (i5) and GPU (Nvidia 3050) is a pretty good combination for playing most games. I tested it using Cyberpunk 2077 which is known for eating up resources and it plays well on medium settings and does admirably on high settings with some lag in high graphically demanding areas with the occasional random lag. Playing less demanding games like Fallout 4 I have encountered no issues. The screen is decent for the price. If I had a complaint it would be I wish it was a bit brighter but for the price that is something I can easily overlook as an issue but put it out there in case it is something important to anyone reading this. The colors are pretty good…better than expected at this price point. For daily computing (web surfing, email, watching videos, and work/school) I won’t waste much time other than to say…nothing to worry about there and I would highly recommend this machine to students or professionals that want something that can handle gaming, basic use, and work/school use on a budget. Works well with wired/wireless controllers as well as other peripherals and again (for the price point) there are a generous amount of places to connect. Physically this laptop doesn’t look like some other brands that were clearly designed for gaming. I personally like that. I’m in my forties and don’t particularly love most of the gaming laptop designs especially when using it in a professional or academic environment. The build is primarily plastic but it doesn’t feel thin or cheap by any means (was expecting it too at this price). That being said, if you are taking this on the go it might be wise to pick up a carrying case with some padding to avoid damage if dropped, bumped, banged, etc. The battery life is OK. (Tip: Battery can be upgraded with an 80v Lenovo Legion battery) and you can add RAM pretty easily. I would recommend doing a bit of research if you are new to poking around inside of devices but as someone who is tech savvy and has a degree in cybersecurity and networking, I would say this is a pretty easy device to swap out components as far as that goes. Another nice feature is being able to physically block the web cam and the slider bar that does this is very discrete (nice little design touch). The weight of the device isn’t too bad and definitely much lighter than most gaming laptops I have used in the past. The cooling is pretty solid but like any laptop it can warm up under high demand usage but so far nothing concerning and I have not yet had to use a cooling pad out of concern (I do use them as a standard practice though). So in summation for an entry level gaming device, a multipurpose device (gaming/school/work) with a modern but classic look that is well built (physically) and has pretty solid hardware I would feel comfortable recommending this device. Great buy and would be a good buy for college students, professionals, parents who want to buy a multi purpose device for kids/ young adults. ... show more

    • There's a learning curve with the ARM architecture
This laptop has incredible features as it is designed to combine the capabilities of Windows with the convenience of a smartphone. It is showing itself to be ideal for me to have an organized system for research notes, online business, and helping the people around me, and being informed and prepared for daily accomplishments and relaxation. The design, features, and extras provided in this purchase are impressive. All the pros mentioned in the reviews and video unboxings I've seen around the web for previous years models are in this one. There is also significant effort to make more apps run natively on ARM, making the cons less con. Tradeoffs take place for those of us that take the option to switch out of S-Mode and use Windows 10 Pro. It takes educating ourselves about app compatibility. Specifically when downloading, if an app is expected to run natively or in emulated mode, or should it not be downloaded due to incompatibility. Once installed and running it's also possible to verify compatibility and make further adjustments and assessments. Be prepared to improvise a bit if you buy this PC. Expect to use Edge or Firefox browsers initially as they run ARM64 natively, and to set aside Chrome and Adobe for a while as they will noticeably lag. The need to use the Web version as well as the UWP version (from the Windows store) of common apps is emphasized, as most will run natively. Accessories which may be needed include a MicroSD card, a universal silicone gel case (when apart from the keyboard, the tablet can easily slip out of one's hands), a USB hub with pass-thru charging (there is only one USB Type C port on the device), a flash drive, and an external USB hard drive for backups. This is a great laptop for someone ready to innovate. I've only had to give up two apps due to lag or incompatibility, and the increased convenience is very noticeable. Although the ARM architecture eliminates some of the versatility enjoyed by having an Intel or other x64 chip, for me it seems to be a move in the right direction. ... show more
