most people eyeing the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16" AI Laptop Geforce RTX 5070Ti 32GB 1TB | Refurbished hoping it comes down to same price point. the difference is no oled and not thin/slim. and reported that cpu/gpu are not as throttled as much and most of all is much much less issues down the line.

Pros:
Gorgeous screen, runs just about everything I've thrown at it without issue. Power brick isn't 10lbs but it is not a thin and light machine by any means
Cons:
Battery life sucks. Screen is NOT variable refresh rate - runs at 240Hz all the time. 5070ti is power limited so you leave some performance on the table. It runs warm default fan profile keeps the CPU over 70-80c at all times. When fans spin up they are quite audible but not horrible sounding. Loves to wake itself up randomly and cook itself from sleep mode. The Intel "AI" built into the CPU is kinda a joke dont expect anything special from it. Webcam is serviceable but nothing to write home about
