QuoteThe matte IPS display with a 165 Hz refresh rate cannot match up to the brilliance of OLEDs, ..

Indeed, the Display P3 Coverage is only 68.7 % (OLED would be ~100%) (Display P3 is the sRGB successor, introduced in 2015) and the Black to White pixel response time of 12ms makes this really a 1/0.012 = 83 Hz display (OLED would be a true 165 Hz one).

the chassis is not entirely plastic as this review seems to imply. To be fair, the bottom cover and the back of the screen are both metal. I have this laptop and the only real annoyance is the neutered 5070.
