Luckily for me I knew that the Ryzen 3700 CPU was last series, so I wasn’t fooled into thinking this was “2021” edition like the headline said. That being said, I love it. It’s perfect size and weight, SSD is snappy, and it runs cool even with graphics turned up. The epitome of a gaming laptop.
I am a financial advisor who uses this computer to work from home, streaming, trading, making Zoom calls, etc., 8-10 hours a day. This computer worked great. It was fast and met my expectations. About 2.5 years after I bought it, the fan is getting very loud, and the computer’s speed is deteriorating quickly. I am about 6 months past the deadline to return for a replacement. For an $800 computer with 2 a 2-year warranty, I kind of expect to have to replace my computer about every 2 years, so I am not surprised.
So far this laptop works well. It looks very streamline, the screen looks sharp, and its fast. However the audio is very quiet, so much so if I even have a fan on in the room I can barely hear the laptop even at full volume. I’ve been using software to learn a new language and the computer also has a lot of difficulty picking up my voice when I do speaking exercises. I don’t think this is necessarily the worst quality, but as I use this for watching videos every day this does present an issue every time I use it. I have to watch movies, tv, etc with subtitles on even at full volume.
This is a great laptop with plenty of computing power. But it has two very annoying design flaws. The first is that they used silver on silver on the keyboard, so it is extremely difficult to read unless the light is just right. And the second is that the trackpad is horrendous. It is so difficult to control the cursor with it, and click on things. I manage by installing a mouse, but I would prefer to have a decent trackpad.
