I bought it few weeks ago and after not even 10 days, it is already broke down!!
The customer service is as bad as it could possible be. They promise 3-5 business days to fix it. Now  more that 10 days are already passed by !!! Really bad experience given the amount of money they ask??

FYI the power button is a fingerprint reader

for anyone buying this laptop and is sensitive to PWM, BEWARE there are 2 suppliers for the 144Hz screen. There is the one in this review, made by LG and another made by BOE (BOE HF NV156FHM-N4G) The BOE model has TERRIBLE PWM. While I can't measure it properly, i used my camera, and took pics while changing the shutter speed between pics until the evidence of flicker was not noticeable. Doing so, i was able to find that at 1/200 s shutter speed, aka 200Hz, the camera and backlight were almost completely in sync, with which a conclusion can be drawn that the BOE panel used on the Blade 15 has a PWM of 200Hz. Further more, the flickering was noticeable at all brightness levels lower than 100%.

tl;dr
the 144Hz BOE panel has a PWM frequency of approximately 200Hz at any brightness level below 100%. Getting a Blade 15 with the LG display is a gamble.

Hi. Thanks for your reviews guys!
They are the only legit ones.

I'm wondering if you will be reviewing 4k version? I'm very much interested in it. Thanks!

Really one of the best Review of all time. I have never seen such kind of detailed review over the web.

In future laptop reviews can you measure hinge opening angles? Sometimes laptops have very limited hinges which can be quite problematic to work with.

Many thanks for the extremely thorough review!

I wonder if the battery drain discrepancy with the MSI laptop (which for most intents and purposes should be close to identical) can be mitigated by slight undervolting of the CPU and/or a more aggressive power profile tuning? Have you checked whether their power profiles are different? (I assume the software set is identical between the tested laptops.)

Still waiting for the full review guys!  ;D
Can't wait to read it

When will the full review be coming out. The 60Hz model seems much better value than the areo 15 with 1060 and 8750h however I think the razer is q-max 1060 which will have slower performance. Considering I already have a 144hz monitor and the difference for 144 is 150£ Im interested to see how this stacks up against the msi gs65 and the areo 15

Can you add a HHD into the pre existig SSD or do you need to replace the SSD with an HHD

This is just a preview, no external review?

4K screen touch: does it come with a pen? Can one draw? As sensitive as Surface Book? This laptop is more than just for games. It is going to get the attention of video and photo editors -and artist with a sensitive pen.

Great review, but were is the photograph showing the insides, as normally you do that

For the Editor: You forgot to add this laptop's results in all the charts you used for this review. I'm not seeing any performance numbers.

Lad, spend half a minute and read actual text between charts. This is preliminary review with gaps to be filled up.
Regarding complaints that screen is glossy - do correct me if i'm wrong - i heard every screen is glossy. They just have antiglare coat.
For surface pro 4 i bought third company matt coat. Looks great, feels much better when i'm drawing - and its replaceable.

Is it me or does Notebookcheck not answer their forum questions anymore? I am wondering if you will review the 4K panel unit
