    Was thinking on buying a extended warranty. THings that have warrantry never break for me. I can get Geek Sqaud but I am not overly impressed by them.

    Disappointed with the overall quality. Power button was crooked. Screen was hard to look at even using the different profiles in armory crate. The 15 inch screen was just kinda small. Lack of even a sd card reader. A new ps5 is half the price so I could buy a really good monitor to go with it and game on that. Not sure why these new gaming laptops are so expensive. Pretty disappointed with laptops.

    Geek Squad normally don't even bother fixing your item and you get a store credit of your original purchase price to buy something else. This is better IMO.
