I've had a Darter Pro for a year now and it's just slowly eating itself.
My first red flag was when one of the keys fell off very early in. I didn't care at the time but in hindsight I wish I would've taken it as a red flag and returned it. A few months later, the battery monitor stopped working - sporatically. There's like a 1/7 chance upon turning my laptop on that I'll be able to see my batter percentage.
A few months later, there's a little line on the screen that almost looks like a big scratch but most certainly isn't.
Now, when displaying pure black, some parts on the edge of the screen will have these white blobs
For $1,200 this many hardware issues a year in is absurd. I won't be buying from this company ever again. Hope you enjoyed your quick buck.

$1,449.00* of a laptop, and nowhere do they even say what the mystery "Graphics:Intel® Arc™ graphics" chip is......even in their separate tech specs page, and that is sus AF in my book.

I've come to rightfully trust Clevo/Sager and Lenovo, since and sadly Fujitsu pretty much fell off the face of earth from over a decade ago.

ASUS makes horrendous thermal designs with their already iffy h/w and I would NEVER touch any of their products ever again after getting hella burned with a mid-spec, 14" years ago.
