Advantages: Decent Battery life. built with care, won't fall apart any time soon. Disadvantages: A little hevy for some. Limited customization

The build is sturdy enough, nothing feels like it is about to snap off, I would go as far as saying that it has been carefully and thoughtfully designed.The keyboard is also magnificient, which has hardly any flex at all.
