Great computer, awkward camera

Beautiful computer, a real joy to work with. Handles Photoshop with ease. Very vivid screen. My only complaint is that the camera placement is so awkward it?s unusable. Not fit for meetings. I?ll have to get an external camera.

Great Gaming PC

This computer is amazing. There is a slight wonkiness to the touchpad mouse but if you are gaming on this like you should be there shouldn't be as much need for the touchpad mouse. This computer is fast!

Best Laptop

Hands down the best laptop for gaming/streaming and editing. Beautiful picture quality. The only con is where the power cord is placed, sometimes gets in the way of using a mouse or other USB ports

Fusion of art and engineering

Elegant, light, quiet, powerful. It seems like they shouldn't be able to fit all of those into one laptop, but they have. I'm reminded of the commercials for cars I can't afford. My only minor complaint if that the web cam location is at the bottom of the screen. There isn't room for it at the top so I understand but the angle of the camera does suck. Very happy with my purchase.
