Great specs for the price, but not great build quality. At first glance the Aorus line sounds premium and implies "built like a tank" if you're familiar with the Aorus GPUs - all metal, solid build quality. But this laptop is apparently plastic heavy - the Lenovo Legion 7i is a superior product, even with a 5070 IMO. Only downside w the 7i is there's no option for efficient Ryzen CPUs, only Intel, which penalizes battery life. Otherwise the Legion 7i is the best gaming laptop on the market today, and the only remaining manufacturer who hasn't cheaped out on build quality for cost and/or weight savings like most others have. Even the premium Asus Zephyrus line (my prior fav) can't touch the build quality of the Lenovo legion 5, their mid range offering.

Agreed with most of this, but I don't have experience with Gigabyte's gaming line today. The Legions are pretty much tier 1 on quality, next best is ASUS following imo by HP. The Omens and even Victus are a step above everything from MSI and Acer and a few steps below Legions.
