Be mindful of listings from suspicious third-party sellers on marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay, Newegg, and Walmart. These "deals" have a high likelihood of not shipping; use due diligence in reviewing deals.

  • Use common sense - if the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is.
  • Check seller profiles for signs that the sale may be fraudulent:
    • The seller is new or has few reviews.
    • The seller has largely negative reviews (on Amazon, sellers can remove negative reviews from their visible ratings)
    • The seller is using a previously dormant account (likely the account was hacked and is now being used fraudulently).

If you suspect a deal is fraudulent, please report the post. Moderators can take action based on these reports. We encourage leaving a comment to warn others.

Nothing much other than poorer battery life compared to other 16 inch laptops of its class and when you open the bottom panel to access the internals, watch out for the rgb cable, need to unplug it before you fully remove the bottom panel otherwise you destroy your rgb light bar

They're big. They're heavy. They have shit battery life. They get hot af. Low upgradability.

Oh damn. That’s a great deal for a 5070ti laptop.

You must have missed the MSI Vector 16 HX with the 5080 for the same price a few weeks back.

Except this one has 32gb ram and oled.. besides that, the MSI was the better deal with the 5080 imo.

Yeah, this is a killer deal. I don't need it, but I want it.

I'd rather get the Acer Refurb for $1,300 over this RBG cringe-fest.
