I guess the question comes down to Lenovo LOQ vs HP Victus, as virtually everything is better on the HP Victus. This was a no-brainer, right?

    Looks like they are both 45%NTSC. So, resolution difference aside, the only difference is the Victus has 50 less Nits. That being said, I typically run my screens dimmer than others out of preference so that doesn’t bother me.

    I do have 6E. The upgrade from 6 to 6E was $10. I would have upgraded it in the LOQ anyway.

    I’ll probably have it plugged in when I’m using it. I bought it because I travel a lot for work. My girlfriend will probably use it when I’m home for basic productivity so I chose the $20 upgrade for the battery.
