Reviews say battery life is below mid. It's capable of some decent gaming performance per Linus but you'll get about 1 hour of battery life for intensive activity and 5 hours of real computer usage. Probably gonna be a used battery so expect it to be even lower than that.

Reports of a common issue with windows update causing a BSOD that can only be solved with a fresh install (or maybe a restore point?).
Hard to argue with the specs for the price tho, so gonna give it a shot.

FYI per my Googling, the 16GB is a cheaper chip and 60hz screen.

780M is all I need for my occasional gaming. Tablet gaming machines always made me nervous though bc of heat build up. Anyone have experience with this tablet?

The chip and RAM downgrades aren't so bad, but I would much rather pay the extra $180 for the 2k 165hz screen.

I completely agree with you... this tablet must be
  1. THICK
  2. HEAVY
  3. HOT while running.
  4. No drop proof cases.

Lastly... this TABLET weights with keyboard case OVER 3.5LBS.
So the question becomes... can you find these specs for less money? I purchased "over one year ago" the ideapad 5 which had a 8845HS and 16GB of RAM for just over $400.00.

You have said it. 16gb. I doubt if you can ever find a 32gb device for this price unless you are upgrading by yourself (in which case the gpu performance is trash because upgradable ram is slow).
