Pros: It turns on and works (mostly) Reasonably fast (this is thanks to Intel and Nvidia) Webcam is ok Battery lifespan protection is good (stops charging at 60% to prevent battery damage long term) No crashes yet

Cons: Fans will drive you insane, turning on and off constantly with random noises. Custom settings are broken Keyboard randomly repeats keys Audio randomly does not work without a reboot Speakers truly suck USB-C charging does not work. This is idiotic since you don't always use 280 watts of power. Insanely huge old fashioned power brick weighs more than a MacBook or Ultrabook

Overall Review: There are so many other better choices out there. Avoid at all costs. Unfortunately, I had similar issues with a GS76 Stealth. It's good hardware with really poor software / firmware. Their motherboards are fine, I guess, but I never install their crapware.
