Stays cool pretty well, runs most games with decent or good graphics fairly smoothly

Battery life is <2 hours generally, keyboard/trackpad almost outright refuses to accept 2 inputs at once, inputs are also very delayed and laggy if they do go through, if its running awhile or does get little hot everything lags severely or crashes, general software/ui is extremely buggy; plugging it in or unplugging will cause the screen to go black for several seconds, hitting function key often causes screen to go black for a few seconds or until released, the macros are buggy with it often taking a bit to process your using them to adjust volume etc and say for volume will freeze then jump up however many you pressed it or sometimes work normally and increase/decrease per press

Its alright but definitely not worth the price and absolutely atrocious for playing games even stuff as simple as dredge, if it had better battery life could definitely suggest it as a good work laptop for things that may be more process intensive but since it needs to be plugged in almost constantly can just get a better desktop for the same price unless you really need something mobile.
