The editors didn't like
Big and Bulky. Expensive. Low battery life
You probably don't really want a programmable lightshow for your laptop. No dual-GPU options
And battery life isn't going to help much with on-the-go gaming.
Pricey. Limited portability. Battery is sealed in chassis
Bulky and heavy
Runs hot and loud
Unreliable touch pad
Expensive
Heavy
Muddy audio quality
Runs hot
While it performed well
We rated it a 4 on performance as this was an older model and expect the newer models would be able to handle max settings on all our test games
