Decent deal. The screen isn't the best and the GPU is limited to 85W so performs worse than other 5070 devices but the price is still very interesting in the current economic climate.

Unfortunately no available for pick up or shipping for me

I just got mine. I know all the reviews say it has a 85w 5070 but according to Nvidia control panel mine is a 115w. I saw up to 112w during gaming.

I have one for a few months.
Touchpad is very good. Keyboard seemed terrible but the desk was too high and it seems to have resolved when I used it at the appropriate height. Funny that other laptops don't have this issue but it also seems to be a non-issue. Fan spins up and makes some noise when gaming. Screen is not OLED but it's very good. I was grateful for that when I accidentally left it on without a screensaver overnight. Windows 11 is just terrible. File explorer freezes, file explorer windows becoming unclickable (but not freezing). If you want to disable the dedicated GPU when unplugging, it terminates certain apps which ought to not be using the GPU. During gaming there are brief hiccups in performance, randomly. I think it's time for Linux.

Didn't need even though one excellent was semi-close, so kicked it around and now it's sold out

I got this before Christmas for my son for his final semester in college.

Open box excellent for $1099. Great laptop. Easily worth the $$$.

He did mention the lack of a numpad kinda stinks but overall he is super happy.

Battery life is very good he tells me.
