Great overall but certain aspects need upgrading

I bought this nearly a full year ago, so plenty of time to try it out. Here are my thoughts on the product:
Overall, nearly everything about the laptop is perfect. I appreciate the thin bezels, fans are good, CPU and GPU perform well and it looks very slick. Battery life is pretty darn good considering this thing has a 2060 in it (same idea for the 2070 model). Small things such as the mic and webcam are good as well and there is generally great ease of use.
The certain things I didn't quite like were the webcam placement, specific parts of the RGB on the keyboard and certain features concerning "Aura" in the Armoury Crate. First of all, the webcam is at an awkward spot in the bottom right of the laptop's "top side". When you use it the camera sees up your nostrils and no matter the angle it won't be perfect unless you are 2'1 (0.6349m) and are on the far right side of the laptop. As for the Keyboard, the keyboard itself is great but the bottom part of the LED strip facing you on the space key died after about 3-7 days after I received it. I read about it online and other have reported that they never had it light up. Besides being a bit annoying, it doesn't do much, so it's not as important compared to the rest. Finally, the Aura section of the Armoury Crate has been working very strangely since about 5 months ago. Before that, I had no problem changing through the keyboard RGB styles and brightness with either the keyboard shortcuts or the AC, but there was an update around 5 months ago (around the time they introduced the "Starry Night" style), where directly trying to change the RGB or styles wouldn't work. When multiple kinds of rainbow were introduced to the AC, they also would not change. Not sure why this is an issue.
In Conclusion, the GL704GV is a great laptop for gaming and work, has a wonderful design, and is just a joy to use. I would have given the product a 5 star if it wasn't for the bad qualities, but in the end, the good outweighs the bad.

The laptop runs Triple A titles very well. It gives you a very competitive edge against other players

This laptop was perfect for me and may be perfect for you too. I am an engineering student who needs a laptop that can run CPU/GPU intensive software and also be able to game in my free time. Here are the best features of this laptop:
120hz refresh rate panel. If you don't know what this is or are coming from 60hz or less, you'll be in for a pleasant surprise when you first boot up this laptop. Everything will feel so smooth on your eyes.
I would recommend this to a friend!
