I am trying to decide between the gl552vw and the gl752vw. I've done my research and it seems like the only difference between these two is the screen size and 1 or 2 minor changes with the ports.
Some things I'm looking to find out are:
Are there different upgrade options (are the ssd ports different, sata vs. Pcie; can you take the 752 to 32 gb ram?)
Is one computer having manufacture problems versus the other?
Is the battery life a lot weaker on the 752 because of the 17 inch screen?
Which one does everyone recommend?
Are there any other major differences to consider that I may not be thinking about?
I am using this laptop mostly for video editing, so I would prefer the larger screen, but there are very minimal reviews on the Gl752vw. Can anyone verify that this computer runs well and is worth buying?

I had the same dilemma except I had a third option from MSI with the exact same specs albeit with one more USB port.
I decided to take the GL752 instead for the bigger screen.

Are you happy with your purchase? Has the computer been reliable?
Also did you add an ssd, and if so, which one did you use?

I also heard you can put the sm951 (ssd) in the 752 and only the 850 evo (ssd) in the 552 (one being sata 3 and the other pcie), not sure if that is true or not, but if that's the case that could be a difference that helps other people make this decision also. Thanks for the reply 🙂

So far I am pleased with my purchase.
1. On board speakers are abysmal (in comparison to a five year old HP laptop with Altec Lansing speakers and a 13.3 inc Macbook Pro).
2. Screen is not IPS and relatively dark even at maximum brightness.
3. The keyboard is a fingerprint, oil magnet.

In your opinion, is it worthy to go for the 4gb over the 2gb GTX9600? I douth which one is performing better on these 2 laptops so I don´t know if it is relevant or not for them.

If u're into hardcore gaming, N want to play them at ultra setting, go for the 4gb or if you're a casual gamer/ N won't bother about ultra setting go for the 2GB version
Even though the 4GB vram won't Be used completely because the laptop has a 960m which is a mid range gcard
