The price went down by just $17.98 in months :/

The RTX 2060 is $200 cheaper. How does it compare to this one?

Can you please direct me to the 2060 laptop for $1133?

I still think a 17" screen is the right way to go.

A strange comment, you mean for all laptops for all people? Personally, I like having choices...

No number pad? Bad deal

Many of us don't use the numpad and so in a laptop it just makes it larger and makes the touchpad be off center, personally I prefer one without numpad, I can always get a usb touchpad if I need it.

I get about 4 1/2 hours with the 17inch version (with the 2070 super) on battery streaming video with everything on low except brightness.

Agree, even Ryzen 5800 + RTX 3060 max-p eg. Gigabyte A5 K1 may be better to get over this for similar price.
But Gigabyte shipping wait time may be a few weeks to a month,
This deal is still solid if you are in a rush to have it- ready to pick up today in some B&M WMs.
-------
I think a further discount of at least another $100+ would be more enticing for this 2070.
-------
The 17.3" version with 2070 super came a couple months ago for $1299, and that was better than this deal, but still questionable since everyone knew 30 series may be equivalent or better if willing to wait.

This is not a slickdeal at all, basically retail price. The Microsoft deal with the 2060 was better (imo, at least price/performance ratio), sadly that's over. Specs for this:
Features & Details
GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB GDDR6
Intel Core i7 10th Gen 10750H (2.60 GHz)
16 GB Memory 512 GB PCIe SSD
15.6" 1920 x 1080 144 Hz 250 nits, 45% NTSC, Anti-glare
14.20" x 10.80" x 0.80"-1.00" 5.30 lbs.
1 x HDMI
1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type C with DisplayPort
3 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A
(pulled from Newegg where it's $1600)

Expired Microsoft deal -

Also available at Newegg for $1200, which isn't worth it.

Point is I'd wait. This would be more reasonable $200 cheaper.
