A lightweight premium laptop fit for gaming
on February 20, 2026
Posted by: Marv
Verified Purchase:Yes
Amazing performance and ideal for QHD gaming at over 100 FPS. 5080 is a bit too powerful for this laptop and its potential may be held by 240W power supply. May not be as powerful as the larger HP Omen laptops with similar specs, but battery life as well as portability can't be beat.

A slight upgrade over a chromebook
on December 7, 2022
Posted by: Marv
Verified Purchase:Yes
Exactly what you would expect from an entry-level no frills budget laptop. Windows 11 operating system is a bonus, but the 4GB onboard memory really hinders this laptop in the multi-taking area. The 1366 x 768 resolution is a bit hard on the eyes. Overall, this would be a slight upgrade over a chromebook.

Marginal upgrades, but fun gameplay

Decent gameplay, but not much of an upgrade over the previous year. Latency in-game has improved some.

Solid budget joy-con alternative
on December 7, 2022

Very good overall controller if joy-con's aren't your thing. Responsiveness could be better, but as a budget controller for the Switch Console, this will do if you are in a pinch.

Very good entry-level QLED TV
on December 7, 2022
Posted by: Marv
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very good entry-level QLED television with Dolby Vision. Dolby Audio sound is acceptable, but pairing a sound bar with this is highly recommended. Vey good picture with good dynamic contrast. Would recommend turning off energy saver pre-settings and adjusting picture to your liking.

We~re bringing Quantum Dot Color to the people. Enjoy over one billion colors, without worrying about how many commas are on the price tag. You~re welcome. The U6G also has 4K resolution, Dolby Vision HDR and Full Array Local Dimming Zones. Sounds like science, looks like a way more expensive set. Especially with a quad-core processor managing all the algorithms that add up to more colors, more precision and more ooohhh.

Amazing picture quality. Dolby Atmos underwhelming
on February 14, 2022

Amazing picture quality that truly pops with Dolby Vision. Dolby Atmos audio speakers are not that noticeable of a upgrade over standard television speakers and would recommend pairing this with a soundbar if possible.

Very impressive Mid Range QLED TV

TV has very good black levels and the addition of Dolby Vision and motion interpolation is a bonus. With Roku, this television is much better than the 2021 Google model that proceeds it.

Good value for performance. Lacks upgradeability.
on December 25, 2020
Posted by: Marv
Verified Purchase:Yes
Fastest Apple computer on the market at an amazing value. There are some issues with applications recently updated to work with the M1 processor, like Chrome, which repeatedly crashes. Safari does works well with the new firmware. About 80% of applications will run through rosetta, which has not been as bad as expected. Non-upgradable memory and storage are another downside to these newer models, but MacBook appears to handle multi-tasking with no issue using just 8GB of ram.
