Exactly how Jarrod's/Ben's videos showed
GAMING:Witcher 3 - I can comfortably (with turbo mode ON, otherwise GPU hit 90+ C) play on maximum/high settings, with the GPU (and CPU) being well within acceptable range. Very smooth game play (At least 60fps, although I don't know how to get an FPS counter in it [Steam FPS counter doesn't work in it]).OW/BL2/Other FPS - No turbo mode required, maximum settings, easily hits 144fps.TV/YOUTUBE/MUSIC:Screen is great, obviously. Sound is fine.WORK/SCHOOL:It is quite on idle, but a bit of noise with multiple tabs/Word docs. open - but with a professor talking or other students typing, was never a concern. But sometimes I did feel a bit obnoxious in the library. But only a bit.With earbuds in, can't hear any laptop fan noises (with turbo on, ofc, it's a different story).BUILD QUALITY AND KEYBOARD:I can hold and handle the laptop anyways I want - it's that solid. Feels premium to me. It does, as shown in Jarrod's video, get your grubby finger prints all over it, and plus the kind of gamery (still low key) logo on the front + the big vents, PLUS the bit of fan noise, it may not be for you if you're doing office work in a very quite environment, around other people.The KEYBOARD is fantastic! It is sturdy, with zero noticeable flex. I do a lot of typing, and coming from the great Mac keyboard, this keyboard is still GREAT.Dedicated turbo key is nice, when I use it (looking at you, Witcher 3).Keyboard/laptop does have some sharp edges and very infrequently do need to shift my wrists (but again, it's really not a problem).Trackpad is, like the videos show, sufficient, but not very good.BATTERY:I only game with it plugged in, and have not had any problems yet.When I take it with me to class, I get it to like 50% ish after a 2hr class, with multiple tabs (whatsapp, amazon, gmail, and of course word docs) open. To be very safe, I would say three hours of use without battery, but even that is probably on the lower end.CAMERA:It's fine, lol. Nothing special. Gets Zoom done fine.OVERALL:Great laptop for both gaming and work. Easily hits 144fps, great laptop (no flex), sturdy build, decent charge. But, like every gaming laptop, can be rather loud, has a bad trackpad, beefy charger, slightly gamery look. A lot of good competition out there now (Razorblade 15, new HP Omen 15, Lenovo Legion, etc), but the keyboard on the Helios 300 is the best, so it seems to me. Also, it has the most reviews so is the most reliable at the moment.Very satisfied with my purchase. You will be too.Ver másVer menos
