    I’ve bought two and both had issues. They aren’t necessarily deal breakers, but the latest has issues with sleep/hibernate where it sometimes fails and needs a hard reboot.

    The issue is that they are one of the few builds for small form factor with dedicated gpu. Only alternatives are really dell or Asus (I think).

      I’ll never willingly buy a laptop again that I can’t fix my self TBH.

      My laptop is my only computer (unless you count my phone, which had to function as my main device for a while during these incidents) so having to send it out for a month is a huge inconvenience. The unreliability of razers was just such a massive issue on top of that.

      The fact that I stuck with them so long is largely because they were one of the few non-brick computers with discrete GPUs. I just deal with a larger form factor now, small price to pay to have something that works and I can fix my self when it doesn’t.
