    Pros

    • Relatively compact and lightweight
    • Excellent keyboard and good touchpad
    • Supports M.2 PCIe NVMe SSDs
    • The display offers 100% sRGB coverage
    • Efficient cooling system keeping temperatures low on the outside and inside

    Cons

    • Constant fan noise even when idle
    • TN display with low contrast, low maximum brightness and poor viewing angles

    • Slightly pricier than its competitors
    • Subpar battery life
