      Battery life officially is 6 hours.

      However, this is a Quad Core FULL i7 CPU. If you are running anything mildly intensive it is going to shoot down.

      We have comfortably achieved 4 hours battery on this model with 20% load.

      Warranty is 1 Year RTB. Can be extended, or upgraded to pickup/return.

    Add a OS and HDD to the second slot and for <1500 you're done.

    You can get a new Asus G750 with 765m on ebay if you want more graphic grunt / bigger screen, but does not come with SSD (has a slot tho).

  • Tnetennba on 05/02/2014 - 13:44

    I'm a bit iffy about the build quality on these, after looking at some reviews online of different Horize models.

    The money can't buy you more, but it just looks so flimsy! As much as I like saving money, I don't like cutting corners in this type of thing :P I'm sure someone will find this deal useful though, because those specs/price are pretty darn good.

    Not really comparable to an ultrabook, though (as the "ultranote" name might suggest).

    • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 05/02/2014 - 14:01
      +8

      No, you can't compare it to an ultrabook. As it is against Intels rules to have a full scale CPU in an ultrabook. It must have ULV. Also it must be lighter. And unfortunately you can't do either of these things when talking a 45w processor.

      Flimsy, I don't think so. I ran one of these (albeit the W650EH older model) for 9 months and it never missed a beat. I only recently changed to the W670SR as I like a big screen and a backlit keyboard. Each to their own, but these are no lesser quality in build or materials than any mainstream brand. Sure it hasn't got aluminium, but then it comes back to cost vs want.

    • robertm on 05/02/2014 - 14:24
      +4

      I think the real value in this deal is the IPS display. IPS screens have much better viewing angles - just compare an Apple Macbook pro to your average PC laptop to see the difference.

      Although I haven't see this screen in person I have been researching the cost of a 15" FHD IPS laptop with a 4th Gen i7 processor. Some examples - Vaio Fit 15A (looks great as it can be used as a table as well though), price $2K, Lenovo W540 workstation, price $2K, etc :-)

      $1200 seems pretty good.

    • Pacify on 05/02/2014 - 14:25

      Actually, In my experience, the build quality in Clevo's are actually far superior to pretty much all the major laptop brands.

      I've had laptops from Asus, Samsung and Acer, and my clevo is easily my favourite laptop ive ever bought (as far as build quality goes)

  • binks on 05/02/2014 - 14:11

    Hi Rep,

    Not related with this deal but I have a question.

    I'm actually interested on p150sm, I noticed yesterday you pulled it out from your website. I've sent email and someone replied that new model is coming to replace it. What will be different in the new model?

    • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 05/02/2014 - 14:14

      Not a lot we can answer yet because of NDA.

      But there will be a different keyboard in the newer model. It will look the same and same processor. It may, or may not have updated graphics.

      • MATTDAMON on 05/02/2014 - 14:18

        Whilst you are on NDA, when is the date of the NDA breaking?

        • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 05/02/2014 - 14:20

          March 10th I think? I would have to look it up, but somewhere around there.

  • morpheu on 05/02/2014 - 14:14

    this is a great gaming laptop for light/medium gaming, nothing comes close for this money, although you won't be playing newer games like FC3/Metro Light etc at FHD/Ultra details, but the good points include good battery life and the Plextor M5M although it's small it is fast, 501mb/s read/462mb/s write, full review here http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-One-K56-3F-Clevo-W650SR-…, note the differences, you are getting the matte lcd with 8 cell battery, but one odd aspect is the weight, review unit is 6 cell weight 2.586kg but this is 8 cell and is 2.4kg, 8 cell packs are always heavier(and usually stick out of laptop!) i wonder if the newer matte lcd is slightly lighter than the gloss lcd?

    • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 05/02/2014 - 14:19
      +1

      Yes you are right.

      The reason their test unit is heavier and also thicker is because it is using a traditional TN panel which are much heavier and thicker than the newer IPS type which is on this notebook. The 8 cell battery doesn't stick out at all, it is the same dimension as the 6 cell.

      • morpheu on 05/02/2014 - 14:28

        thanks for the quick reply!
        so the lcd contrast ratio is much better than the TN glossy @588:1?
        i am very tempted for sure, but the GT750M is falling into the mid range, it's the same core as the GT650m, if this had the 760M even if the price was say $100 more i would order it in a heart beat!

        • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 05/02/2014 - 14:58

          Contrast ratio is 400:1 on the IPS matte display.

          It is worth to note though that the glossy display will be artificially advantaged by the glossy coating. If it were in matte it would be much lower.

          The other specs worth noting:

          6 Bit colour
          300 cd/m2
          WLED Backlight

          If you have used an IPS panel before, you will note that they are always more colour rich than the TN equivalent. I am not sure exactly why, I am not an LCD engineer, but even versus the 95% Gamut Matte panels we have for other models, these always come on top.

  • [Deactivated] on 05/02/2014 - 14:24

    How is the cooling system on Horize laptops?

    • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 05/02/2014 - 14:46

      This particular model uses one heatsink for both the CPU and GPU and one fan. It is adequate but by comparison to the higher end models like P151SM1, P170SM etc they are much better for cooling. The system is capable of keeping it cool enough as it is only a 750m card.

  • hoftos on 05/02/2014 - 14:27

    The Cons according to http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-One-K56-3F-Clevo-W650SR-…

    • High temperatures and noise levels
    • Port locations are not optimal
    • Weak sound system
    • Space bar not working adequately

    Imo the high temperatures and the space bar problem are the only real factors to consider, and might be enough to put me off on this deal. Someone convince me otherwise ;)

    • morpheu on 05/02/2014 - 14:31

      laptop cooling pad + external keyboard=solution?

      • hoftos on 05/02/2014 - 14:40

        wouldnt want to be taking an external keyboard everywhere i go, if anyone has experience with this keyboard/laptop, is the problem that bad for typing notes?

        • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 05/02/2014 - 14:44

          I used one every day at work for 9 months, I don't remember having any complaints about the keyboard. But maybe it's what you get used to.

          As for high temperatures and noise levels, nothing out of the ordinary. If you have a 45w CPU and a GT750m graphics card, isn't bound to get warm. I only ever noticed noise when gaming. It's quiet the rest of the time.

    • ozhunter on 05/02/2014 - 19:26

      This one has a more powerful cpu and slightly better graphics. You one is lighter(14inch compared to 15.6in) and has a longer quoted battery life mostly because of the ULV cpu.

    • Mumbles on 06/02/2014 - 00:47

    • Store Repjackkel @ Logical Blue One on 06/02/2014 - 11:23

      Better? Well it is subjective.

      The first one was an actual ultrabook with long battery life and much thinner and lighter.

        Virtual machines. Studying virtualisation requires many VMs, and therefore a lot of RAM. My current laptop is struggling with 16GB.

      16GB is maximum.

      You would be best to look at something like the P151SM1 if you want something capable of 32GB.

    I bought the deal (now waiting for it to be built), but am thinking of adding extra SSD. Will the SSD from the Amazon deal fit?
    Sorry I'm not a tech savvy person, so just wondering if it will fit and if it is something easy to do this ourselves?

      Haha, same here, got the 480GB mSATA from Amazon, now looking to buy a suitable laptop to slot it into! The above deal comes pre-loaded with a 128GB mSATA. Not sure if you need to specify another mSATA slot in your order.

        Just remove the msata ssd off your order (saving you 70 bucks) then put your 480gb one in.
