Who expected this to be a budget system? Did razer put out a ton of shit before dropping this saying they were going to make an affordable laptop? I don't think so. Yeah the thing is shit anyway and overpriced but bitching at them for "failing at cheap laptops" is just an excuse to have a clickbait title so people like me can come to your post and be angry.
Also who actually cares about those dolby/thx codecs anyway. It's not like you are running an entire atmos speaker setup off this thing. Also that shit tends to fuck with the actual sound quality so I'd rather they not include it anyway as its just another thing to disable.
