this is a great laptop for coding and animating, though i've never tried to render any 3D animations on it. it can run unity, maya, and blender fine for the actual creation of things, though there's definitely some lag if you're trying to view the full texture of things in blender.i can play 2D games on this fine. when i play slime rancher the fans start singing and it gets very hot, especially when i have to plug it in (games drain the battery very fast, though aside from that the battery life is good and it fully charges in an hour if you aren't gaming). granted, i am playing the game at what is likely too high of a resolution option.honestly i've mostly used this for coding, animating, and watching anime. there are two weird glitchy things i've noticed- the track pad sometimes quits registering things and lags for a minute or so and the audio stutters for a few seconds on occasion. they don't happen that often and are minor annoyances at best.at one point my friend had to uninstall windows and then reinstall it because it quit being able to update and i was getting stuck in update loops, but neither of us know what caused that so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.anyway, if you're looking to play... not 3D open worldy games, or if you're wanting to work with unity or model in blender or maya, this is a good fit. granted, i don't know about rendering out animations in maya or blender, as i was told that can fry laptops (i rendered my stuff out on my school's desktop instead, though most of it was modelled and even textured on this laptop).also. good luck finding a laptop bag it will fit into... though the bright side of that is a very big screen.ah, and heads up that airpod pros will a) take forever to connect to the laptop's bluetooth and 2) make horrible static sounds if they are too close to the laptop. i think that's more on the airpod pros though, as airpods work fine with it (i listen to music... a lot, okay).
