The laptop is designed for people who need something that can do everything, making it perfect for those who want a hybrid device.

Weaknesses

The laptop does not run at full wattage (100 watts), which means you'll lose around 6-7% performance compared to other laptops.
If you're looking for absolute beast mode performance, this laptop might not be the best choice for you.
You'll need to consider whether losing a bit of performance is worth saving money and getting a more premium design.
The laptop may not appeal to those who want to squeeze every last drop of performance out of their GPU.
