Great budget VR laptop

I originally wanted a laptop for my living room to use for VR but also something to take with me for trips. Instead of building or buying a home theater pc or buy the new MSI series mini gaming pcs.
Upon looking around i only wanted to spend around 1,000k but i saw that many in that price point were equipped with the GTX 1050 or GTX 1050 TI. This laptop comes with the GTX 1060 which is more then enough to handle anything that comes your way as far as games.
My set up has the Display port going to my HDTV in my living room. The oculus rift connects to the HDMI out and everything has worked without a hitch.
A few things that ive noticed that i wished was different or came with is. -Battery life- 3-4 hours granted its for gaming so its not bad but hey i can wish. -No SSD- many other laptops at this price point come with a 128GB SSD. But you get the better graphix card and SSDs are cheap now anyways. -No 4k monitor- to be fair, no gaming laptop comes with 4k at this price point but its a bummer since a regular laptop at this price point comes with it.
Overall- Id say really good laptop for someone who wants a barebones VR laptop with none of the fancy bells and whistles.
Also, id been able to play all VR games so far with no lag so its been a success!
