The only con I can think of is the touchpad, but again that doesn’t bother me one bit since I use a USB mouse.
As far as Photoshop is concerned, I have it installed on the SSD and opening it is blazing fast. It took 17 seconds from double-clicking the shortcut to being ready to open an image. The 16GB of RAM is great here, I can work with large files without stuttering or lag.
Again, absolutely LOVE this laptop. Would highly recommend to anyone at all, not just gamers or designers. Blazing fast, GORGEOUS screen color, very responsive, comfortable, heavy but not bulky, and so much more.
Tip: Put Rainbow Six Siege on the SSD drive. Shooters will lag if you use the side storage. So save that for your shooters or intense multiplayer games. If you have a lot of these games, look for a different computer with extra SSD. Laptops are notorious for this, and it's not a fault with this laptop specifically. This is laptops in general if you are a gamer. But with Siege on my SSD, it has no lag. I have Siege and Total war Warhammer 2 and they both run great. I still have space for another game or two. If that helps conceptualize what sort of space this specific pc has on its SSD. Your single player games should all sit on the regular storage, as it doesn't impact it much.
Gotta watch out for overheating. Try setting it on a hard surface. It makes a big difference. Also keep the fans at full blast if you're doing something intense. It helps. I can't really fault this PC for heating issues. That's just a normal laptop issue. Especially gaming laptops....
Screen size is amazing. I won't settle for anything less than 17'' as a gamer. But ultimately I hook it up to my main TV... But still! You can't do that at school or on campus.
This computer will probably last me another two years before I move on to something in the 11 or 12 series. Three years for games is pretty solid, honestly. Then i'll wipe it and use it purely for work. :)
will try to update my review as i use it more in depth.
The laptop was great while it worked as it was a laptop I used for gaming and video editing/processing. However, right around the time a year had passed the computer would shut down anytime there was moderate usage of the GPU including gaming, video processing, etc. After doing a little research, I find that it is a common issue among the Predator laptops with multiple sources of the issue. I tried all the various issues online as well as calling in to the support to try to resolve it. Inititially I was told it was under warranty, however fast forward a few months of fruitless troubleshooting only to find out that they were NOT going to cover it under warranty and want to charge $700 for repair before they even know what is wrong with it. Not to mention that their customer support has "accidentally" disconnected from me on multiple times where I had to call them back.
