AORUS 15P

Strengths

The best value, best bang for buck, and best no-nonsense gaming laptop in my opinion.
Has a great display with low response time, super buttery feeling, and high brightness (326 nits).
CPU can run at almost 4 gigahertz in CPU-intensive games like Battlefield.
Build quality is solid and robust, with no hotspots or noise issues.

Weaknesses

Keyboard trackpad could be better, especially in low-light conditions where secondary keys are hard to see.
Limited upgradability options for the GPU (only standard options available).
Speakers are middle of the road and not particularly remarkable.
Fan can get loud when under heavy load, but is still quieter than many other gaming laptops.
