XPG Xenia Intel i7-9750H GTX 1660 Ti 6GB, 512GB NVMe SSD, 16GB RAM, Gaming Laptop (XENIA15I7G9H1660TLX-GLCUS)

Let me just say, when you read reviews and you see "it came damaged...boo hoo"....It broke after 4 hours....boo hoo"....please just blow past those reviews. My god, contact Amazon and get it replaced. It is so few and far between....AHHHH Those are worthless reviews about shipping....not about the product itself.This laptop by XPG and Intel...is....I....my god...I don't even know what to say. I live on a budget like everyone else. I was looking for months for something that could handle VR and play any game I threw at it for less than "They want how much???" I play games like Metro Exodus and Cyber Punk 2077 and Microsoft flight sim 2020....Half Life Alyx...Skyrim VR....This Laptop handles them all. Now I don't claim that it can handle 4k on a huge screen because I have yet to try that. This is a laptop....Think travel and FUN! Oh and if you have a VR Oculus....I use Rift S.....A simple thunderbolt to display port adapter is all you need and it runs them very well. A few minor tweaks here and there like most pc graphics cards using VR (and this laptop does a great job at virtual reality gaming...just to spell it out...it RUNS VR! if you are wondering). I always push my systems to the max and see what they can handle. I played Shadow of the Tomb Raider at Ultra with Ray tracing enabled on this, my average FPS was high 40's. That's right, freakin Ray Tracing on a 4lbs laptop....WHAAAAT!??Bottom line is, it is sweet for the price, Keep in mind XPG (ADATA) is new to the laptop world and they are no stranger to high quality products. So The price is awesome...for now..it is easily comparable to $2000 laptops. DO NOT waist your time with the 1660TI it is old news and not worth the money. Get the 2070 Max Q version.So what's the downsides.......uhm........Ok so, the onboard speakers sound like they are underwater...or just very drowned out since they are on the bottom of the laptop.."Headphones my friend...headphones" or just connect it to your bluetooth soundbar. There are a lot of options for sound,Next: the fans spool up to a pretty high rpm when you are gaming, you will hear it. for sure, I'm talking about intense games, not so bad with lower quality graphic games like...let's say, Starcraft 2 or Diablo 3. Worst case, get a laptop cooler, and remember it is a GAMING laptop. Otherwise for general use, it is much more quiet than the crickets outside....or snoring.....just...it's quiet OK!Next: Battery will not last long while gaming, like...2 hours....plug it in if you are gaming....I mean for long sessions, if you are just casually gaming or just unplugged,.....set it to battery saver mode....click the battery icon, bottom right of the screen, select battery saver, also next to the power button (top right of the keyboard right under the monitor) there is a second button to select, "Performance", "Balanced" or "Battery Saver". So no excuses, it will last your typical laptop battery life for gaming. All subject to change...Turn off the RGB lights, darken the screen....use battery saver. My 2 hour battery life is based on, performance mode with max brightness and the keyboard and front RGB lights all on high, playing Tomb Raider on battery. (living room A/C set to 72degrees)Conclusion....Buy it...forget Alienware....and all the overpriced NAME brand crap. This is your new name brand. Besides the SSD and Memory in those overpriced name brand laptops are most likely ADATA anyways.OH and PS the complaints about the keyboard being loud,,,,Well I am writing this in a very quiet bedroom next to my girlfriend who is sleeping, mind you....and a very light sleeper....I had the speakers set at volume 5 while playing diablo 3 and she couldn't sleep.....turn off the volume....keys clicking away and she is snoring away. So NO! the keyboard is very nice and comfortable and probably the best I have ever felt on a laptop.You would do yourself a favor to buy this one before it becomes the next BIG thing. Also it is super discrete if you are a college student who needs it for class and doesn't want to draw attention but is a secret gaming nerd or, the serious Business guy who has a very important power point presentation to show on 6 monitors and forgets to turn off his game first......DOH!Just buy it and say Thank you. You'll like this one.

The laptop came very well packed, and it arrived as intended. Good product from good seller, best in the world.

For 979, this didn't seem like a bad deal with an I7 and 1660TI. But there are some issue I must take up here, firstly, the screws that came installed here were put in WAY too tight for a machine that was built to be upgraded in the future. Tried to Crack it open just to upgrade with a 16 gig I had lying around and decided to leave it be after completely stripping a screw, secondly, the screen has a weird "bubble" look, almost as if the polarized lens isn't seated properly. Thirdly, the black trim around the screen itself has some notable chipping, prominently around the upper left corner of the screen. I do have some solutions for the mentioned issues. For the bottom screws, just make sure you have nice tools to begin with, then insert them FINGER TIGHT. For the screen, try using a suction cup on the front of the screen while pulling slightly, this will remove most of the "air bubbles" you may see. Thirdly, for the paint defect on the bezel, if you have the skill, I'd highly recommend using some flat black vinyl wrap on the bezel, it's thin enough to close properly and matches the black of the keys very well.

I love the keyboard on this laptop. The graphics run smooth. Haven’t been able to play Skyrim in three years, and finally this laptop can handle it.

Best Lap Top I ever owned

I bought this thinking it could handle video editing. It can't.

I've had this laptop for almost 2 years now and it still does a great job even with modern games. For the price, it's a tremendous value in my opinion, especially for someone like myself who primarily only plays a handful of the same games. One of my favorite games is Halo Infinite (season 5 as of this posting) and it handles it all quite well. It can get slow though if you bog it down, but if you're like me and you use it mostly as a personal laptop with a moderate amount of gaming sprinkled in, you can't really beat this price point. It's also a lot lighter than most gaming laptops which is a nice bonus. The only con is that the charging brick is massive and the fans are loud.

Was quick, but, couldn't reset it...stalled out, I'm glad I returned it.

What you're getting for under $1500 CAD- GTX 1660Ti- 16 GB Ram- 512 GB SSD- i7 9750H CPUCompare that with the "Razer Blade 15" you're only getting 256 GB SSD - and the price is easily above $1600 CAD (everything else is the same).Pros:- price & specs- amazing thermals- great port selection (3 USB-A, full-sized SD slot, HDMI, USB-C, RJ-45)- disable trackpad with double tap on the top-left of the trackpad- amazing screen refresh rate and image quality- brush metal makes it feel very sturdy, nice to have your hands rest over- lightweight, this is coming in at over 4 pounds, compared to other laptops that usually are 5 and higherCons:- keyboard RGB is awful, just leave it on a static color and call it a day, this is not your standard RGB backlighting, changing between colors or using smooth gradients do not work here- the keyboard is something to get used to, don't be fooled by "mechanical" - it's nothing like that- battery life, just leave it plugged in, and use the built-in software to limit your battery charge limit to 60% / 70% / 80%, etc

I was quite excited to receive this laptop. However, once I received it, I noticed that the bottom cover was not placed on to the main body of the laptop leaving a significant gap, as you can see from the photo. This defect was mentioned by a few reviewers as well leading me to believe that this is a common issue (poor quality control.)Furthermore, the size of the battery is just way too big. Xpg's objective was to deliver a compact and light gaming/performance laptop which they sort of did accomplish. The laptop itself is slim, compact and not too heavy for a gaming laptop. But the battery don't do justice, it is way too big and heavy (as you can see from the photo, it is significantly bigger than a Galaxy note 9). You would need to carry a separate bag to carry around the battery.Overall, I am quite disappointed by the poor quality control and the size of the battery. I will just have to save up and buy an Asus zephyrus 14 or something else that is more promising.Please be aware of these issues before purchasing this laptop. Cheers

About a year of use, there's a rainbow stripe appeared down the middle of the screen, and keyboard multifunction.After contacting the XPG support, they said that I have to pay for my own shipping, $200, whish isn't the biggest problem yet.When the laptop was shipped back, it wouldn't even load up properly. The screen's fixed, but the laptop itself is now internally dead. The company doesnt even reply to any of my emails.I have to say, I have purchased laptops in the past where they have had way better service. Talking about broke the laptop that night, having support to trouble shoot and arrived before 9am to have it fixed in house service. I'm full of regrets wasted my money here.
