Pros:

Classy metal case, comfortable input devices, low noise levels, IPS display with a brightness higher than 300 nits, plenty of ports including VGA and full-sized DisplayPort
Highly customizable, Touch Screen optional, Decent performance for a business-grade, mobile workstation

Cons:

Ancient and obsolete AMD GPU, CPU not powerful enough for a portable workstation, color coverage too low for photo editing purposes, no Thunderbolt 3, high temperatures under load, 65 W charger too weak
Dedicated GPU performance leaves a bit to be desired
