Good quality screen with decent resolution. The hinge arrangement seems very solid & the screen has less glare than my previous laptop. Overall performance is brisk, handling multiple tasks with ease. I'm not a gamer so I haven't heavily stressed the CPU & GPU as yet, although the photo processing has been handled with ease so far. Built is solid & looks to be good quality (although time will tell). The power connector is more robust than my previous laptop, somewhat resembling a USB port, meaning its not easily dislodged & has a very positive fit. I generally use this laptop at home, so it is normally plugged into mains power, however the times I've used the battery it has held up well.
