Cracked bezels on traditional laptops

I ordered 2 of these laptops from 2 different vendors and they both had the same issue: a cracked bezel on the front/left corner. It seems that when the keyboard overlay is pushed into the frame, the corner is released. Other than that and some thermal throttling, this is a great machine.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Empty

Independently changing laptop

I wanted to like this laptop. But unfortunately I can not - what is the reason? With all the viruses, trying to set it up to run consistently was impossible. No matter what I set or how I set it (e.g. font size because I'm visually impaired), it changes to something else on the next boot. Granted, that's part of the madness of Windows 10, but it's certainly not limited to that. Every day I have to spend half an hour or more to get the settings back to where I want them. It's getting old Very…

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Not Impressive: Traditional Notebooks

Buying this laptop is further proof that good specs don't always equate to a great product. I had a choice between Gigabyte 17" and MacBook Pro 16" and finally chose AERO because of the impressive screen and graphics card. It must be said that I feel the remorse of buyers' conscience. The bad: Terrible web/nose cam: I don't know why Gigabyte even includes this monster. This is completely useless as it allows everyone in your Zoom meeting to examine your nostrils in detail. The camera is case…

Pros
  • Decent Performance
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Beast Laptop Compatible with Computers and Accessories

I've had this for a few days now. The only upgrade I've made is adding a second NVME (2TB). This laptop takes 7-10 seconds to cold boot. It can easily multitask under heavy loads (even with 16GB of RAM). I'm not a real gamer, so I can't comment on that. However, for Photoshop, Autocad and 4k film editing, this laptop is more than adequate for processing. The fact that it has a 4k HDR display is insane to me. This display is literally stunning. HDR is "entry level HDR" so it doesn't look like my

Pros
  • Durable Test Results
Cons
  • I'm Concerned
