I'm curious why this was marked down as not a good deal. The specs seem pretty spectacular for the price range and weight. What's the issue with it?

It's just some random guy with 1 downvote. Ignore if you like the deal.

Hard to please everyone especially the "I got this 50% cheaper a year ago crowd".

For what purpose were you thinking of? Personally I would never compare a MacBook anything to a Windows gaming laptop. Completely different categories. I mean, maybe there's some comparison for AI LLM processing. But beyond that, I wouldn't think of anything that the two would compete against. For general computing, you could get a Chromebook and have sufficient performance. For gaming, you really wouldn't bother with a MacBook anything. But for portability and the Apple ecosystem, the MBP is a great product. Personally, I think this is a pretty decent price price in this market. The MGP for the GPU is a little low at 85W. But it has 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 1TB SSD. The display isn't OLED, but a 400 nits IPS won't suffer glare like an OLED either. Not bad.

I got this a few months ago refurb'd with the 5070. Unit was in great condition. Specs are good, thermals are pretty good. Touchpad is pretty good. Keyboard is disappointing but manageable I guess.

Thanks for the feedback... It's more for running local LLM and open law not gaming

My understanding (which is limited in this case), is that the MBP would be better because the Gigabyte is going to be limited by the amount of the VRAM, which is 8GB. But the MBP has unified memory, though typically only 16, but it would allow for more options.
