If color accuracy is important to you, this laptop is NOT for you!

purple appears blue, red appears orange, green is more yellow-green. I've attached photos showing my $450 Acer laptop from 4 years ago (left) which outperforms it in color accuracy (right). 99% color accuracy - compared to this model with 54.5% sRGB accuracy! The specs are amazing, everything runs smoothly, but the monitor's color quality for a gaming laptop was my biggest concern. The battery life also seemed average to me. I've also reached temperatures of 190Β°F by running intense gaming, so it can get even hotter over time. I've tried to ignore the color issue, but you'll notice that right away if brightness is important to you. Just uh, disappointment.

Pros
  • also understandable for the old
Cons
  • compatibility
