Framed for treason, cocky super-agent Lance Sterling (voiced by Will Smith) thought he'd help himself to top secret tech developed by nerdy armorer Walter Beckett (Tom Holland) in order to catch those who set him up. Unfortunately, Walter's discovery turned him into a pigeon-and he now needs the lab rat's help to stop the bad guys, clear his name... and make him human again! Animated adventure also features the voices of Rashida Jones, Ben Mendelsohn, Reba McEntire, Rachel Brosnahan. 102 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Return for a Basilisk. Was not bad, just felt the Basilisk felt better despite the weight. And it really isn’t that heavy at all. Returned.

ASUS G15= Best value for the buck.
on July 2, 2021
Posted by: Arod
Verified Purchase:Yes
So if you are looking for a LIGHT but powerful laptop there are ONLY 2 real options. A G14, which I had and returned ONLY because I really wanted a 15 inch QHD. Again I am talking LIGHT weight laptop. Yes you can buy an Alienware with a higher TDP and now it’s heavy and the battery life is poor and you will be plugged in… if that is what you want and never carry it around or on your lap sure grab an Alienware. I love them too, honestly for my use I do not need a desktop/ laptop. Razer? Yes they are awesome… and expensive. Portable but no battery life so what’s the point. Did I mention expensive. Best bang for the buck are the G14 and G15. G15 plays anything out there super quick, open SSD slot. So M16 ? I still say G15. If it had a 3070 for that $1850 I may consider it. But 16:10 aspect equal letterboxing so why ? And a 6 gig 3060 for the same $1850? No, G15 is the better value. All of those crazy speaker issues are gone. Use Dolby and custom eq. Sound great, not MacBook Pro great( I have one so I know ). For a windows laptop it sounds great. Screen ? Flawless with no backlight bleed at all. Keyboard lighting. After you finish playing with per key everyone just turns on one color lol. And if you are over 25? Really ? Why the light show ? SSD is super fast, added another skynix from Amazon. Super fast. The memory debacle? Folks 16 is enough to game. If you are buying this for productivity or music then ddr vs capacity kicks in add the stick and don’t worry about DDR. 16 is enough. Build ? Well it’s plastic and metal/ poly. It doesn’t creak or flex. Typing is awesome. Trackpad is HUGe and CENTERED… sorry OCD kicked in. Power brick is light, has fast charge and I mean fast. USB charging works, used my MacBook Pro 16 charger worked fine. Battery life. AWESOME. When not gaming, watching videos and browsing 8+ hours no joke. Screen at 50 brightness. Mai ? Ugh let us say I am not a fan. Just me. HP ? Tried it in between the G14 and G15. I just didn’t like. QHD,3070, Ryzen, Rog, battery , light and thin and cost. What else is out at this price point, build , name brand and spec and PORTABILITY!!!! Written so you do not have to do the 4 laptop swaps game I did before being Happy. You will be.

Changing the the cpu/wattage will void the warranty? I was prompted that asus will not be accountable for any direct or indirect damage from changes to those parameters. I would change these to lower the cpu/gpu temperatures when gaming.

No. Armory crate is in n the machine from ASUS. If it can’t handle it it will just back it down and throttle.

Is the whole chasis aluminium or plastic?does the full chasis feel like a macbook pro or does it feel cheap?

Feels solid nothing is going to feel like a MacBook Pro. But at this size everything was tight and solid build. Apple is a solid metal body… and you pay for it lol. I know. I have one.

Does this laptop came in black color ?

No not this actual model in the US. At least not at Best Buy. Only in silver as shown. Incidentally I returned mine for the G15. Nothing wrong with the G14 I just wanted the bigger screen and QHD. And was not fond of the whites backlight and on silver keys. Other than that no complaints on performance. Same price btw for the G15.
