Strengths

I really really like it I like its bright sharp 4k display outstanding performance strong gpu performance in particular
the rugged design the excellent keyboard the upgradeable ram and ssd really easy for the user to upgrade that I like
optional wireless wan which is great when you're on the go great array of ports and it does have a webcam shutter
it's not subpar battery life, because although 'the fans will kick in under heavy load and they are noticeable'

the fans will kick in under heavy load and they are noticeable because of again the power that is generating
