    Hi,

    I just picked up a GS63VR (1070 MQ edition), and after a clean install, pleased thus far.

    But finding a laptop sleeve seems very difficult. Device is a little wider, it seems, than other 15.6" screen laptops.

    Can I kindly get some recommendations on sleeves that others are using?

    Thanks!

    I sauntered over to Best Buy yesterday and picked up a Targus Strata; it fits perfectly. In the photo, it looks a little tight around the corners, but it really does fit perfectly. I have the same machine.

    A sleeve is designed to carry the system but may not provide sufficient protection. Certain products can actually protect your investment but not without a highest cost.

    Good point, I know some people use the sleeve as a standalone carrying item, but the one I selected is just for additional padding in a laptop case. It's not rigid in the least.
