I've been playing a couple of recent games off Steam and some Tabletop Simulator, and this laptop works perfectly. There were two major issues, but I resolved both (see below). Here's my quick summary:
PROS
+ Very fast machine. From boot-up to gaming, it works exceptionally well.
+ Keyboard and touchpad are great, no issues at all. I like the integrated 10-key and backlighting.
+ It starts up in seconds. Literally no delay. Open the screen, push the power button, and I'm ready to go.
+ Again, it feels solid, like it might be one that will last for quite some time.
CONS
- It gets very hot, particularly around the top-rear area. I knew this from researching product so I bought a three-fan cooling pad and that seems to help. No impact to performance when running at full load but it is definitely hot to the touch.
- The charger gets even hotter, so don't leave it near your leg.
- The battery life is not good at all. Maybe two and a half hours, and I wasn't even playing a game. So be aware that this is not a productivity laptop for use on long flights or roadtrips if you don't have a power source. Short battery life should not be a surprise if you do your research (no gaming laptop is going to have a long battery life), but I didn't think it would be quite this short.
Now, here's my major complaint, and it is more an indictment on Windows than this laptop. I downloaded all the necessary updates when I first got the laptop fired up. Two days after that, there was some optional Windows update that I scheduled to run that night. I made no other changes to my laptop, downloaded no new software, visited no "questionable" websites, and adjusted no settings.
The next morning, my laptop was a brick. It couldn't run even a modest game like Wasteland 2 without heavy, unplayable stuttering. Even web browsing was bad. It was like I was using a dial-up connection or a 20 year-old laptop. I tried to roll-back my system to the previous version, and that didn't work. Rebooted, closed all background software, looked for updated drivers (imagine the frustration of typing in a web address and waiting... waiting... waiting... waiting...), but nothing worked. My CPU was clocked out at 100% when I used any software at all.
I was furious, but managed to go in and do a system reset. Again, not being tech savvy, I had my concerns that this would cause some major problems... but it worked. After a wait of about 30-45 minutes, the laptop was back up and running like a champ. Maybe even better. Whatever that Windows update was, it destroyed the functionality of my machine. They should be embarrassed. I came thisclose to sending my laptop back and buying a Macbook Pro, because at least I wouldn't have to worry about some randomoid update ruining my laptop out of nowhere.
So, in summary... this is a great machine. Watch out for Windows, and use that system reset when Microsoft screws something up again.
I searched for several weeks, and after this laptop checked off my list of mobility and power, I made the plunge and upgraded.
I switched to DaVinci Resolve in conjunction with my switch to the Laptop, so the speed increase I saw was frankly unbelievable. I had a client job, and exported a 15 second 1080p video (upscaled to 4K) in 9 seconds. For a longer half hour interview I'd done, again upscaled to to 4K, it was done in about ten minutes.
The fact that it worked at all on first attempt was mind-blowing after working with Premiere CC 2018 for the past few years which rarely exported at all let alone on the first attempt.
This has led to the direct benefit of being able to take on several client jobs at once without anxiety, or staying up until 3am reexporting while my PC screams and blows hot air into our bedroom.
It's worth sayin this was my first experience with an SSD outside of an old Chromebook I had played with in 2013, so the speed of the machine is incredible to me.
The backlit keyboard is also a huge bonus, since I can see my keyboard at night or in dim rooms when playing back videos.
Gaming has seen a huge boost. I'm not a PC gamer, but I do own a few games through Steam, like Skyrim and the Arkham games. These games load instantaneously, and play smoother than ever before.
I was able to load Assassin's Creed Unity in 9 seconds, vs 90 seconds on my old desktop; Red Dead 2 loaded in about 45 seconds, as opposed to the usual 3.5 minutes on my Xbox; GTA V loads in 20 seconds compared to several minutes on Xbox; and Alan Wake will load in a second or less, and be running at 200 frames per second.
If there are any cons, first thing's first, the battery life is virtually nonexistent. This isn't a problem for me, because I'm usually within a few feet of a power outlet, but even while typing on a word processor, the battery life is maybe 4 hours. I'd also say that the machine is pretty loud. Not loud enough to disrupt headphones, but load enough that you may not want to bring it to a quiet coffee shop to work.
The heat is also something to be aware of. The space above your keyboard will be hot to the touch while doing intensive tasks such as exporting a video or gaming for more than a few minutes, but is quick to cool down and so far there have been no signs of damage or overstressing of the system.
I'd also suggest a riser such as the Lamicall branded one that can be found for about $20 USD. It allows for better airflow under the laptop, and folds nicely into any laptop bag.
Overall a great product, and one I look forward to using for the next several years as my main workstation.
