The keyboard is phenomenal, with long key travel, clicky feedback, backlight, and spill resistance.
The input/output options are extensive, covering the left, right, and back sides of the laptop.
The laptop has good battery life, lasting 8 hours and 47 minutes in web browsing or 8 hours and 13 minutes in video playback.
