Jay:its only 4 pounds
British people:YES
that was literally why i clicked LOOL
same reason... jay you trolling b@stard lol
He really should've used "lbs" but then it wouldn't be funny lol.
Egyptians: HELL YEAH
Es sind 1,88 Kilogramm! ;)
I agree the packaging screams "I'm a cheap DVD player being sold at CVS"
I rather would take computer with boring looking package than computer with same price and flashy package.
Flashy package is much more expensive than boring looking package, so every dollar wich goes into package is out from hardware.
@@LeGoog2008 or profit
But how many of you keep and use the packaging for the life of the product?
@@g6qwerty It isn't about keeping the packaging. It's about consumer perception. If your packaging looks cheap, people assume the product inside is cheap (it often is).

my laptop buying checklist:
overall aesthetics/ design: "less is sometimes more" - check!
pre -installed software on laptops: no bloatware - check!
internal specs up to snuff: absolutly decent - check!
battery life/ noise/ connectivity/ weight: solid! - check!
looking at the price tag: always too expensive. end up not buying - check!
Is portability a main concern? If checked, why not build a killer desktop that you can connect to via remote desktop with a chromebook or used Thinkpad? If you still insist on having portability without a desktop system, there aren't a lot of options without shelling out lots of $$$. Just gotta think about the energy efficiency of laptops and see if it's worth bumping up the budget to not have maximum desktop power (probably closer to 78% efficiency, but 80% less energy even with the exact same desktop parts).
The closest thing to an amazing all in one laptop is either a Gigabyte aero 15 9y or Clevo P750TM1-G. See ruclips.net/video/O8zcB_EcAyY/видео.html for more info
Mine:
Is it a laptop? If so, don't buy it. I have zero use for a laptop.
It's remarkably good value IMO. Compared to actual overpriced laptops from MSI, Razer and Aurorous
funny
@@SimGunther I bought for myself an Gigabyte Aero aswell (X9-Classic) .
Because I am now at a University and want to have an laptop with that i can do all my work and still take back home at the weekends, while I have enough power to play games.
So an desktop with an laptop isn't always that good.
Being from Britain the title made me think I was about to get the bargain of the millennia

A lot of people seem confused by the chassis. Maingear did not invent the chassis, Intel did. And no, Maingear did not collaborate with Intel on it. Intel is using this chassis with several brands. Those saying Eluktronics copied Maingear are idiots and dont understand how SI works.
Even customized and spec't out, a good price for what you are getting. I agree though, I like 4x NVMe's in RAID0 and 1 or 2 2.5" SATA SSDs. RAM speed kinda sucks though. My current system is dying, but trying to hold out for DDR5. Pray for me!!
Yea, I understand what you are saying but, even the software is identical for all intents and purposes. Honestly, this looks like one company making the machine and branding it under several different companies.
@@boeubanks7507 Like I said... that company is Intel.
Yep
Ok, that answers my question. I was thinking maybe they were the OEM for maingear

It's actually a perfect laptop for work and game. Simplicity. I like it
good laptop, decent pricing, awful website
and packaging
And brand name. “Eluktronics” sounds like a cheap knock off brand.
And warranty. Check it out.
Bill Farrell warranty is a year isn’t it? Seems normal for most laptops
Nah the website is excellent. Miles better than the crappy links of Lenovo, Dell, and HP.
I'm in love. It doesn't look all that "modern," which is a good thing. "Modern" these days only mean smaller screen bezel, thinner, and less expansion/ports... This laptop looks excellent. Even the packaging and the wallpaper scream early 2000s haha I'm glad someone is still making these.
I love the back IO. It makes so much sense to have power, display, and Ethernet at the rear instead of the side, especially when it's just sitting on a desk.
"It is 100% bloatware free, no rgb controlers, no fan stuff" A few moments later "There is a control center kinda thing to control the lighting, you can control your fan speed here" 🤔
If this is the only thing I'm fine with it. Because acer or other brands have up to 30 Bloatware Program's out of the box...
they'd be stupid to include RGB without a way to control it, lolol. it takes 20seconds to remove if you want it gone and no RGB. why complain?
It's not about the presence of the software. My comment is about Jay contradicting himself in the same video. I just think it's funny.
Hardware control software is bloatware. Okay, sure.
What's next? "Drivers are bloatware"?
@@Azlehria LMAO
That's a very great laptop for this price, specially having a stormtrooper in the back.
Linus just reviewed a laptop from MainGear that I swear was this things twin.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Even the "control center" looks exactly the same. The quick mode swap button next to the power button is the same, the light bar in the front. The only difference I saw was the USB C port.
Yes, but this one is 100 usd cheaper with a better bundle and more ram.
they are twins. theres actually a 3rd twin like this. they're not laptop people so they weren't really aware. Jarrods Tech is a laptop person and reviewed them months ago
They’re both from tong fang. Most SIs use tong fang actually
They're all the same laptop, but branded differently per region they are sold. Intel designed it. Different brands sell it.
Finally, was looking forward for J to review the lappy. Tks !
As a fan of fighting games, the ethernet port is vital. Wifi adds delay to online and it makes fighting really bad. Didn't expect I'd ever have to worry about something like this when thinking about purchasing laptops

"I could live in dongletown if I want!" - Jay 2019
Dont know if you have it over clocked, but its beating my new MSI GS75 Stealth by 250 points on the same benchmarks, running the same GPU and CPU
sky ryder yeah, the SI probably undervolt it out of the box cuz that’s a common thing this generation.
The CPU is undervolted by 0.05V out of the box
This may be a 90w GPU. The GS75 is an 80w which is kind of weak compared to the 90w and especially the 100w new alienware m17 which is what I have and it's a beast
Hope we see more videos like this. Good to highlight some of the great work and deals available from some manufacturers out there.
That honestly looks like a really nice laptop

He's right, the Storm trooper is burned in forever.
It works better, I had no idea that it was a shield or anything frankly
Was it coincidence that Jay and Linus reviewed the exact same laptop with different badges at the same time? I'm not implying anything shady I just think it's funny.
I own two of their laptops. One doesn't have a logo at all...
probly not, its when the company told them to have it up
Australia - Aftershock Vapor 15
US - Mag 15
Europe- XMG fusion 15
Nothing shady here. Just like you i had a confusion earlier until i knew they sell it with different brand name in different regions.
@@ahmedsarker01 And it looks like Tsinghua Tongfang is the ODM for them all, having their own brand called Mechrevo. THTF used to be on Intels ODM roster (not listed as of today though) so it's likely Intel had a 'say' in this build. There are also more brands in other regions using THTF listed here linustechtips.com/main/topic/919450-tongfang-custom-laptops-and-world-tongfang-resellers/. By the way, in 2012 it was reported that 94% of all notebooks were made by Taiwanese ODM's.
CLEVO (Google it)
Very nice review. Thanks, Jay. Merry Christmas!
Jay had my hopes high... I thought there was finally something on the channel I could afford when I saw 4 pounds in the title
Someone with balls should come out and say: this is why we have “identical” laptops with different branding 🤷♂️🧐
Intel designed a chasis and gave the rights to sell it to multiple companies. Same happens with cars and trucks
Because tongfang manufactured them.. This isn't some big secret
I have a Mech-17 from them an love it. I actually like the minimal branding on it and the box. Let's them be so much cheaper than their competition not having a giant advertising budget. Also their customer service is amazing. Had to send mine back 6mo after purchase because the gpu fried itself. They paid for shipping both ways and complete repair!

"there is a Control Center app" :D
Jay I have a heads up for you regarding that SD card slot.
While yes, it is great that this laptop has a SD card reader, there's a good chance it's not SDHC or SDXC compatible. I also imagine the SD cards you're using are probably SDXC.
I work in data recovery, and see this way too often. Very few in-built readers are SDXC compatible.
Yes, usually SDXC cards will work in non SDXC-compatible readers (like most in-built ones), but they're not intended to work together, and doing so can often lead to your card becoming corrupted.
Just my thoughts as an experienced DR technician. You can probably get away with using the in-built one, but it's not recommended and does put you at risk of losing data where you probably wouldn't with an external SDXC-compatible reader.
Very interesting read
if it is they usually advertise it, like the aero series having a UHS-3 card reader
You test features about laptops that I wish all the other RUclips greats would look at. Nice video.
I love how the fans sit directly underneath the air vents! Many laptops that I have disassembled did not have that feature and they always ran hotter than I'd expect them to run. I also assume that the better airflow makes it a bit quite than other laptops which is one of the most valuable things if you don't have a beefy headset for gaming or if you want to stream and have a microphone.
I can imagine Jay passing by the shelf in a store with this laptop box and saying something along the line "What is this weird brand..?" "Alright, moving on."
The title says 4 pounds
I am from the uk so I thought it meant £4 so I was like wtf
Hey, i tried to use the bitdefender link, but it says not available in my region. I'm in the US which you said the offer is valid in, do they also limit based on what states as well?
Normally I don't go out and buy things that are sponsored by RUclipsrs, but I just got this laptop delivered today. I gotta say that I am enjoying it so far! Thanks for helping me find an awesome laptop, Jay!
Very enjoyable video with a lot of helpful comments. Would have been nice to actually see the thermals since they were mentioned, hear the audio, hear the fans in the different modes. Odd that on the Amazon site they sell two models that look identical, except one has a 1TB drive and one a 2TB drive, yet they are both the same price at $1,999 with the same bundle promotion. Very tempted to get the 2TB one for my couch, bed, and the rare times I travel, or maybe if I want to play at a coffee house :-).
Is the 1 TB same type of drive? NVMe vs. SATA SSD vs HDD?
That fan noise is the worst part about these laptops. I had the Aero 15x with almost identical specs and chassis and that thing was so loud i could hear it over my headphones sometimes. Very annoying.
@JayzTwoCents I bought a 15.6" Mech-15 G2 [i7-8750H, GTX 1060 6GB, 16GB RAM, 512gb SSD] a couple of years ago and I considered it a rare find (never heard of Eluktronics prior to) and I've been singing it's praise among my friends/co-workers. I've owned quite a few "high end" and a couple "gaming" laptops for development and work... but this was by far the best I've purchased and, on top of that, it felt like a steal (snagged it for $1100 where equivalent Asus, HP and Dell laptops were pushing $1800~$2200 at the time).
As for software, like you mentioned I was shocked when powering it on for the first time. You get used to uninstalling Norton/AVG, all the random crap the vendor dumps on the device... But in this case it was literally like a fresh Windows 10 install... just a desktop shortcut to their website and nothing else. Was tear worthy~ LOL
Seeing you do a product review of them is pretty awesome. They deserve the exposure.

this is the exact same laptop as the maingear from linus review or ? just different branding ?
Adrian XenoRay I think so I was just gonna comment the same thing😂😂😂😂
Just finished this review I would bet money it is the same machine😂😆
Even the control center app is exactly the same it just doesn’t say main gear on the top
The maingear element, mag 15, aftershock vapor 15, and xmg fusion are all the same laptop.
I’m actually thinking about getting the Element for when I travel
It is exactly the same, however Eluktronics is the ODM (rather than OEM) so this is the "real" brand. Similar to how Sager makes a lot of laptops for other OEMs.
Nothing wrong or unusual with any of that, if you're looking into one buy the one from the OEM with the best price.
Ryzen mobile will be my laptop. I feel the same way about Intel that you feel about Thermaltake.
ThermalFake. FTFY.
Does he hate thermaltake PSU and cases?
All day boost and next to no thermal throttling and absolutely no power throttling on their H series? I'm with you about company choice.
ruclips.net/video/TVgfU_sshm0/видео.html
Same... Done, just done with Intel! Slimy company who holds back their CPUs and force people to constantly but on their tic before the release the toc. Same deal as Nvidia, but Nvidia is less noticable in how badly they cripple your wallet.
Love that you did a review on this!
I got one when they first rolled out, and did exactly as you suggested... plopped in a 2TB M.2 drive. I'm very happy with the laptop, and I might as well add customer service has been great too (I've gotten a human in no time every time I've called). *Service calls were for an OS registration hiccup and to get an Nvidia game code offer that wasn't yet available when the laptop shipped, but Eluctronics came through!
Same spec as the one you presented here, though I also went for the Liquid Metal cooling option. The laptop has been worth every penny.
ive been meaning to get a laptop thats as good as a average gaming pc, but still usable for travel and uni, does it fit the bill? note im still skeptical cause the brand isnt known like acer or msi
@@LZ3ABI I didn't know the brand at all before the purchase either. I did some research, and then made the leap. I'm really glad I did. I'm very happy with it, just as I said above. I don't hesitate to recommend it to others, and I'm pretty picky.
The quick brown fox JUMPS over the lazy LITTLE dog. Sorry for being that guy
so where can i get it for 4 pounds?

Eluktronics is an amazing company that makes some of the best laptops for a cheaper price compared to more popular brands. I have a Mech-17 which is famous for having some of the best temps for a gaming laptop simply because the Tong Fang chassis are godlike.
If only there was a Ryzen version
Keep an eye on the CES show next month. Supposedly AMD has some new mobile products coming
7nm mobile Ryzen would convince me to buy another laptop. I have the Walmart OP laptop from last year and it was a very nice buy at $700, but I do wish it had something better than a 1060 6GB. If I can get a Ryzen mobile CPU too, that’d be great.

What are your thoughts on this vs a Dell XPS 15 and the new Macbook Pro 16"? I'm looking at upgrading in the near future for my video editing work on the go.
Nice, good to see some off-brand getting some love. I gave these guys a try 3yr+ ago. Bought their Eluktronics Pro-X P95HR model laptop. They no longer sell this model. At the time when 1070 Max-Q laptops were all in the $1600+, but they had a limited time promotion for $1350. Snagged it without a second thought (after doing weeks of research on pricing+specs before hand). The laptop is still doing great for 1080p gaming content and handles VR decently well. Gaming laptops run pretty hot, so it's a good idea to purchase additional cooling solutions; such as laptop base-pad fans and fan exhaust boosters. Especially having it run on 3hr+ gaming sessions.
It's funny how this laptop is better in almost all aspects than most of other laptops from big manufacturers.
It has 120 Hz IPS Display
90 WHr battery
Core i7 8750H
RTX 2070
Big heat pipes with no thermal throttling
16 GB Ram
512 NVME SSD

Hey Jay - do you have a recommendation for a budget ($1,700.
what is your current travel pc? is it a small form factor pc or is it a laptop? and do you focus more on work(production) or do you use it for gaming too?
its bloatware free just like any fresh windows machine install... oh look a custom control panel, seems lightweight 😂😂
thats not bloat ware though. thats actual software for the laptop to configure it like rgb......
@@jodyboles8208 as Jay said himself, it has no bloatware for RGB or any of that stuff, so the custom control panel could be considered bloatware.. I get it's still good for a pre-built or a laptop but it just made me laugh because of how he worded it
@@jodyboles8208 also I'm sure Asus and all the others would argue their bloatware is just software to configure the thing but that's exactly what bloatware is, a software package
@@christhorney bloatware is unnecessary, you need something to control the RGB in these, and they just add other features in with it. definitely not bloat
Judging by how far down on his app list it was i don't think it came installed already
My company purchases the most current Dell and HP laptops (both standard and high end). How does the Eluktronic model compare to HP and Dell machines when it comes to performance and support? Would you consider this companies machines worth purchasing for the corporate environment? What kind of warranties come with these machines and do they include accidental damage coverage? And do their batteries suffer the problem of bloating (expanding on their own) like the mainline machines do? And what is the cost a company would l pay?
If you purchase the laptops straight through their site, they offer extra extended accident warrenties and much more. I've been buying Laptops through them for about 4 years now and they are the only company I know where I was able to send my laptop in and they would upgrade parts on it if I wasn't able to, and this includes upgrading from a 60hz IPS panel that had very bad response time causing ghosting to a new 120hz TN gsync panel that was compatible with the laptop and released as a upgrade option a year later.
I've had really great support from them and have been recommending them to friends.

Big facts here. I started PC gaming on a bunch of ass laptops and thought I would never need another one after I got a good rig.
Then I got into recording, music composition and performance and in a great twist actually needed a 2 in 1 to display sheet music like a tablet, with power to run large DAW sessions and the like.
Who would've fucking thought.
So true. I used to use a laptop for ecm/pcm flashing at my shop. I put an Intel I7 2600k desktop on a roll cart with room for a keyboard and mouse pad. It is WAAAY faster than the I3 laptop it replaced and the whole setup cost me 200 bucks.

bitdefender is well worth it! highly recommend that beautiful software
I used to use Bitdefender but it sometimes hogs system resources. Was it just me?
@@AzriAzhari when did u start using it and what were u doing at the time u noticed it hogged resources? there's a lot of factors in this. mine runs perfectly smooth, but it can ramp up when it detects something (like disinfect or scanning). that's normal.
I would also check mark "scan only new and modified files" to see if it helps u.
my settings are to
scan only application - off
scan potential unwanted applications - on
scan scrips - on
scan network shares - on
scan archives - on (leave the "ignore archives greater than alone)
scan emails - leave default
scan boot sectors - on
scan only new and modified files - on
scan keyloggers - on
early boot scan - on
threat actions - "take proper actions"
in the "drives and devices" section, I put that to "ask every time" as it could also be a resource hog if it is scanning ur drives all the time.
make sure advanced threat defense is on.
now, the program could very well act differently from computer to computer since everyone has their PC configured uniquely and have other programs, etc. if u have more than one antivirus on ur PC, that will kill ur performance and resources and make windows act abnormally. it could very well be just u. I've never had ur issues. also, I don't do automatic scanning, I find it slightly pointless in my case
Yea I downloaded a Trojan accidentally thinking it was something else installed it, ran multiple scans and 3 restarts later all traces of the virus was completely gone it blocked all access to my personal info and stuff so thank god
@@ArtisticallyEligible I have been using Bitdefender since 2015 if I'm not mistaken. Switched to Kaspersky 5 months ago. The problems happen when idling and when I'm gaming. Using Steam, no torrents or anything. Windows always up to date. I only have 1 antivirus running as I know multiple will try to fight each other. I did not however tweak the settings as much as you did yours. Most probably it's just me lol. Happy with Kaspersky so far though
I'm surprised you didn't do a Dell G7, it's basically the same thing and they had a really good deal on cyber Monday AND threw in a 12% coupon.
The Diamonite I’m sure Dell did not send him a free one to use like this brand did
Love mine ! great machine for the price, bought mine as a kit
I love how you can just keep making new Bitdefender accounts, not reinstall anything and simply "Switch Account" to the new one, to essentially reset your trial period... I had 3 months left from the time Linus was sponsored by them. I'm back to 180 days with your link, thanks.
