Pros

Neat and refreshing design with impeccable build quality
Configurable LED keyboard backlight with various zones and mechanical keys for gaming
Effective cooling system - the fans are seperately configurable
Supports two M.2 2280 PCIe NVMe SSDs (RAID 0 is also possible)
Excellent image quality (high contrast, brightness, sRGB coverage and optimal native color temperature)
No PWM across all brightness levels
Convenient port placement
Huge 90Wh battery
Full range of ports including HDMI 2.0, DP, SPDIF, USB 3.1 Type-C and Thunderbolt support

Cons

The display is a bit heavy, easy to twist due to the support of only one hinge and has distractingly big screen bezels
Unsatisfying touchpad performance
No G-Sync support for the built-in display
The fans are a bit on the noisy side
No switchable graphics
Heavier than the competition (4.366 kg)
