- This review is about operating system: Windows 11 Home, keyboard language: Greek
Although I use it for gaming, I use the laptop for simple tasks so I cannot judge its performance. I will mention its negatives.
1. The brightness of the screen is not enough for me, decent in terms of quality, nothing great, but it should be brighter.
2. Without heavy usage, only internet, pdf, etc., sometimes it heats up, not excessively, but again I repeat, I use it for simple tasks.
3. Completely unacceptable that if you don't have the laptop on a desk, the touchpad hardly works at all. So if you are thinking of lying down and doing some work or reading a pdf, do not buy this laptop.Translated from Greek ·- Speed

The laptop is great, but I still haven't figured out why it slows down and lags like a Celeron when running on battery power. I've tried everything, but nothing seems to work. It's as if I have a laptop from 2006. From what I've researched, it seems to be a CPU issue. The CPU needs wattage to perform properly. When I unplug the power supply, it slows down significantly and takes 1-2 minutes to open the browser. I even tried using Linux, but it has the same problem. Obviously, this is how it functions. It's a gaming laptop that needs power, and when it has it, it doesn't lag anywhere.

Purchase on 30/3/2023. I expected it to be more plasticky, but I can say that it impressed me. It heats up quickly, which I didn't expect from Intel, but at least it doesn't go above 85 degrees, it has good air cooling. It runs well at idle temperatures. The battery drains like an iPhone, starting at 98%, you see something here and there and boom, it drops to 68%. I imagine it's because of the high wattage, it easily consumes it. Of course, I'm saying all this after one day of use, so I'll come back with more feedback. Anyway, I'm thrilled with the quality, because I have an appreciation for MacBook, but unfortunately, I want Windows, and I can say that its plastics are very reliable.
