Excellent 17.3 inch laptop

Bought for those who work from home. They wanted something with a big screen but still portable. For basic email checking, word processing, Excel spreadsheet editing, and meeting scaling, it's a bit overkill. Definitely better than having something weak. As expected, it stayed quiet and felt cool while performing those non-stressful tasks. Thanks to the nvme SSD, everything loads very quickly. Webcam quality is acceptable (not amazing, but not unbearable). Suitable for conference calls, but the content creator will most likely not be satisfied. The keyboard is comfortable to type on. The screen looks good and the hinges feel pretty unique. It's hard to explain, but it's nice to open and close. Battery life is 4 hours using Microsoft Word in moderate brightness. Make sure you have your charger with you. Many ports. A couple of traditional USB ports, a headphone jack, a micro SD card reader, and even USB Type-C. Overall, I would definitely recommend it to people looking for a 17.3-inch laptop that can handle moderate workloads.

Pros
  • 512GB NVMe SSD, 12GB DDR4 RAM
Cons
  • Concerns me
