This computer is a beast. What really impressed me is how long you can use it on battery if you're not playing heavy games. You can put it in igpu mode which will give it 8-9 hours of battery life as long as you put it in silent mode. For streaming, viewing and working with documents, it must be at least 6 hours long. I really wanted a 1440p screen but with this 300Hz screen it's perfect! I'm not a big fan of LCD but this is a very high quality screen. The pictures do not convey this. When I need 4K, I just plug it into my TV. I like that this is a very small 15 inch laptop. It's not clunky at all and not overly thought out. I thought I would have heat issues with the 3070, but the laptop handles heat very well. It doesn't burn my feet while playing. I had no problem playing all my games on max. A lot of the benchmarks I see for it use poorly optimized games, so it's not fair on this laptop. The keyboard is beautiful. I didn't want a mechanical keyboard because it's noisy. When the LEDs are off, everything looks unremarkable. The LEDs are really easy to rotate and adjust. I haven't seen any real bottlenecks in what I'm using them for. This laptop is the sweet spot. In my opinion, it's a better design than the Zephyrus because the rear heatsink doesn't meet the screen. The only thing I would like to see is a number pad with a keyboard and an aluminum frame.
