Is this laptop good for gaming?

No. It has integrated Intel graphics only, no dedicated GPU. It handles casual and older titles at low settings but not modern games.

Is the 17.3-inch screen too big to carry around?

It is fine as a desk machine but heavy for daily commuting. If you carry a laptop every day, a 14- or 15-inch model will suit you better.

Is 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage enough?

Yes for everyday use. 16 GB covers browsing, Office and video calls, and 1 TB holds a large photo and document library. Neither can be counted on to be upgradeable, so buy the capacity you need.

Does it come with a touchscreen and Windows 11?

Yes. The display is a 1920x1080 touchscreen and Windows 11 Home is preinstalled.

Is $1,169 a good price?

It is the only new price listed as of November 7, 2026, at Newegg. Compare it against other 17-inch touch laptops with 16 GB and 1 TB before buying, since there is no second new price to check against.
