We love the computer. It boots up rocket fast. I have used it on battery for as much as 8 hours before needing to charge. I am still getting used to the feel of this laptop vs. my old one. So far it has lived up to the hype.
Bought this to replace an old HP Gaming laptop running a 1050 NVIDEA GPU. Games I could no longer play like No Mans Sky and Red Dead Redemption run great on it!
This is a well made laptop but it lacks three features I want in a laptop: an IR webcam, which is required to login to Windows with facial recognition; a backlit keyboard, to avoid having the printed-on letters rub off after a few years; and a built-in DVD player, which HP has dropped from its product line.
