Customizable RGB on the lid, vents, light bar, and keyboard
Outperforms similar 16-inch laptops- makes great use of its components.
Fan noise is quiet during light tasks
Understated black design with some gamer elements

Mediocre trackpad
Poor battery life
This has quickly become our favorite 50-series laptop. We especially like the 5080 configuration.

Our biggest issue is usually the price, but if you see it on a good sale per our price tracker, that's a good time to snatch it up.
