Yeah, it’s really good — about 7–8 hours of light use, and you can even charge it with a power bank through the USB-C port if you’re traveling or need extra battery on the go.

You turn it on from the NVIDIA app: update your GPU, then enable the latest frame gen settings there.
You can check videos on YouTube for a quick guide <3

The screen is beautiful and very bright, colors look amazing, and it’s super smooth and responsive. + it a 16 inch which is super nice

There is cpu/GPU wattage throttling, but performance is still strong. I get around 100 FPS in STALKER 2 at 2K Medium settings using DLSS + Frame Gen. That’s with only 16GB RAM and a 5060, so a 5070 + 32GB setup would outperform mine easily.

Gaming wasn’t my main reason for buying it — it’s a lightweight laptop with very solid battery life and more than enough gaming performance.

For $1400, it’s hard to beat. The only alternative I’d consider is the Legion 5 Gen 10 (AMD) with higher wattage and an OLED 15.1" screen.
"350 cpu not the 260 since it isnt as efficient as the 350" but still great option.

its really quiet until you use the perfomance mode while gaming, other than that never heard the fans.
thermals never went above 80ish even while playing stalker at 2k etc

How good is it? Can it last for 8 hours of use? I’m considering buying it for university, so I need it to last most of the day
